Some limit theorems for ratios of transition probabilities
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1987 In this paper, infinite dimensional forward convergent stochastic chains have been considered in the framework of [1]. The main result of this paper deals with the observation that the total flow of probability from the C-states to the T-states is very ...

Improving the Estimation of Markov Transition Probabilities Using Mechanistic-Empirical Models
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2017 In many current state-of-the-art bridge management systems, Markov models are used for both the prediction of deterioration and the determination of optimal intervention strategies.

Atomic Data for Astrophysically Important Spectral Lines of Singly Ionized Nitrogen
The Astrophysical JournalNitrogen lines are widely observed in astrophysical spectra and provide important diagnostics for plasma properties. In this work, we present extended calculations for accurate energy levels, electric dipole radiative transition parameters, and lifetimes

Scale-invariant transition probabilities in free word association trajectories
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2009 Free-word association has been used as a vehicle to understand the organization of human thoughts. The original studies relied mainly on qualitative assertions, yielding the widely intuitive notion that trajectories of word associations are structured ...

A note on computing average state occupation times
Demographic Research, 2014 Objective: This review discusses how biometricians would probably compute or estimate expected waiting times, if they had the data. Methods: Our framework is a time-inhomogeneous Markov multistate model, where all transition hazards are allowed to be ...

Methodology for transition probabilities determination in a Markov decision processes model for quality-accuracy management [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Management and Competitiveness, 2014 The main goal of the presented research is to define a methodology for determination of the transition probabilities in a Markov Decision Process on the example of optimization of the quality accuracy through optimization of its main measure (percent of ...

Markov chains as a proxy for the predictive memory representations underlying mismatch negativity
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023 Events not conforming to a regularity inherent to a sequence of events elicit prediction error signals of the brain such as the Mismatch Negativity (MMN) and impair behavioral task performance.
