Markov chain — A simple two state Markov chain. A Markov chain, named for Andrey Markov, is a mathematical system that undergoes transitions from one state to another, between a finite or countable number of possible states. It is a random process characterized … Wikipedia
Stationary process — In the mathematical sciences, a stationary process (or strict(ly) stationary process or strong(ly) stationary process) is a stochastic process whose joint probability distribution does not change when shifted in time or space. Consequently,… … Wikipedia
Poisson process — A Poisson process, named after the French mathematician Siméon Denis Poisson (1781 ndash; 1840), is the stochastic process in which events occur continuously and independently of one another (the word event used here is not an instance of the… … Wikipedia
Kriging — is a group of geostatistical techniques to interpolate the value of a random field (e.g., the elevation, z , of the landscape as a function of the geographic location) at an unobserved location from observations of its value at nearby locations.… … Wikipedia
Random walk — A random walk, sometimes denoted RW, is a mathematical formalization of a trajectory that consists of taking successive random steps. The results of random walk analysis have been applied to computer science, physics, ecology, economics and a… … Wikipedia
