We describe a computational procedure for evaluating the quasi-stationary distributions of a continuous-time Markov chain. Our method, which is an 'iterative version' of Arnoldi's algorithm, is ...
Discover how Markov chains predict real systems, from Ulam and von Neumann’s Monte Carlo to PageRank, so you can grasp ...
For uniformly ergodic Markov chains, we obtain new perturbation bounds which relate the sensitivity of the chain under perturbation to its rate of convergence to stationarity. In particular, we derive ...
Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Dr. Lance B. Eliot is a world-renowned AI scientist and consultant. In today’s column, I closely examine an innovative way of ...
