Properties of the Statistical Complexity Functional and Partially Deterministic HMMs

open access: yesEntropy, 2009
Statistical complexity is a measure of complexity of discrete-time stationary stochastic processes, which has many applications. We investigate its more abstract properties as a non-linear function of the space of processes and show its close relation to

Stochastic cash flows modelled by homogeneous and non-homogeneous discrete time backward semi-Markov reward processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The main aim of this paper is to give a systematization on the stochastic cash flows evolution. The tools that are used for this purpose are discrete time semi-Markov reward processes. The paper is directed not only to semi-Markov researchers but also to

On a Mixed Transient–Asymptotic Result for the Sequential Interval Reliability for Semi-Markov Chains

open access: yesMathematics
In this paper, we are concerned with the study of sequential interval reliability, a measure recently introduced in the literature. This measure represents the probability of the system working during a sequence of nonoverlapping time intervals.

Clarification of basic factorization identity is for the almost semi-continuous latticed Poisson processes on the Markov chain

open access: yesKarpatsʹkì Matematičnì Publìkacìï, 2013
Let $\{\xi(t), x(t)\}$ be a homogeneous semi-continuous lattice Poisson process on the Markov chain. The jumps of one sign are geometrically distributed, and jumps of the opposite sign are arbitrary latticed distribution.

Description and analysis of non-stationary signals by nested semi-Markov processes

open access: yesJournal of Measurement Science and Instrumentation, 2014
The possibility of describing the time-dependent processes of scattering by underlying surfaces and the clear sky,as well as the seasonal behaviour of the refractive index of troposphere by using nested semi-Markov processes has been considered.

A new approach and software support to reliability analysis of repairable complex systems [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Science Journal of Moldova, 1995
A new method of reliability analysis of complex systems and software supporting is suggested. It is based on modelling of their evolution by means of semi- Markov processes.

Monte Carlo Simulation of Markov, Semi-Markov, and Generalized Semi- Markov Processes in Probabilistic Risk Assessment [PDF]

open access: yes
A standard tool of reliability analysis used at NASA-JSC is the event tree. An event tree is simply a probability tree, with the probabilities determining the next step through the tree specified at each node.

Proper account of auto-correlations improves decoding performances of state-space (semi) Markov models

open access: yesPeer Community Journal
State-space models are widely used in ecology to infer hidden behaviors. This study develops an extensive numerical simulation-estimation experiment to evaluate the state decoding accuracy of four simple state-space models.

Fractional derivative in continuous-time Markov processes and applications to epidemics in networks

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
Continuous-time Markov processes are governed by the Chapman-Kolmogorov differential equation. We show that replacing the standard time derivative of the governing equation with a Caputo fractional derivative of order ...

Credit Risk Assessment Using Fuzzy Inhomogeneous Markov Chains Within a Fuzzy Market

open access: yesRisks
In the present study, we model the migration process and the changes in the market environment. The migration process is being modeled as an F-inhomogeneous semi-Markov process with fuzzy states.
