Compound Poisson process — A compound Poisson process with rate λ > 0 and jump size distribution G is a continuous time stochastic process given by where, is a Poisson process with rate λ, and are independent and identically distributed random variables, with distri … Wikipedia
Compound Poisson distribution — In probability theory, a compound Poisson distribution is the probability distribution of the sum of a Poisson distributed number of independent identically distributed random variables. In the simplest cases, the result can be either a… … 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

Outline of probability — Probability is the likelihood or chance that something is the case or will happen. Probability theory is used extensively in statistics, mathematics, science and philosophy to draw conclusions about the likelihood of potential events and the… … Wikipedia
List of stochastic processes topics — In the mathematics of probability, a stochastic process can be thought of as a random function. In practical applications, the domain over which the function is defined is a time interval ( time series ) or a region of space ( random field… … Wikipedia
