WordDefinition
poisson point processIn probability theory, statistics and related fields, a (also known as: Poisson random measure, Poisson random point field and Poisson point field) a type of mathematical object that consists of points randomly located on a mathematical space with the essential feature that the points occur independently of one another.
stochastic processnoun(mathematics, probability theory) A function that maps elements of an index set to elements of a collection of random variables; historically, a collection of random variables indexed by a set of numbers usually regarded as points in time.
gaussian processIn probability theory and statistics, a Gaussian process is a stochastic process (a collection of random variables indexed by time or space), such that every finite collection of those random variables has a multivariate normal distribution.
stochastic differential equationnoun(calculus) a type of differential equation in which one or more of the terms is a stochastic process resulting in a solution which is itself a stochastic process
exponential distributionnoun(statistics) Any of a class of continuous probability distributions used to model the time between events that occur independently at a constant average rate.
poisson distributionnoun(statistics) Any of a class of discrete probability distributions that express the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed time interval, where the events occur independently and at a constant average rate; describable as a limit case of either binomial or negative binomial distributions.
determinantal point processIn mathematics, a determinantal point process is a stochastic point process, the probability distribution of which is characterized as a determinant of some function.
branching processnoun(mathematics, probability theory) A stochastic process which typically models reproduction of objects, with the assumption that the reproductions of individual particles are mutually independent.
compound poisson distributionIn probability theory, a compound Poisson distribution is the probability distribution of the sum of a number of independent identically-distributed random variables, where the number of terms to be added is itself a Poisson-distributed variable.
continuous-time markov chainA continuous-time Markov chain is a continuous stochastic process in which, for each state, the process will change state according to an exponential random variable and then move to a different state as specified by the probabilities of a stochastic matrix.
discrete-time markov chainnoun(mathematics, probability theory) A sequence of random variables, known as a stochastic process, in which the value of the next variable depends only on the value of the current variable, and not any variables in the past.
geometric brownian motionA geometric Brownian motion (also known as exponential Brownian motion) is a continuous-time stochastic process in which the logarithm of the randomly varying quantity follows a Brownian motion (also called a Wiener process) with drift.
autocovariancenoun(statistics) The covariance of a signal with another part of the same signal
probability-generating functionnounThe generating function created from the probability mass function of a discrete random variable.
cross-covarianceIn probability and statistics, given two stochastic processes and , the cross-covariance is a function that gives the covariance of one process with the other at pairs of time points.
birth processIn probability theory, a birth process or a pure birth process is a special case of a continuous-time Markov process and a generalisation of a Poisson process.
point processIn statistics and probability theory, a point process or point field is a set of a random number of mathematical points randomly located on a mathematical space such as the real line or Euclidean space.
markov kernelIn probability theory, a (also known as a stochastic kernel or probability kernel) a map that in the general theory of Markov processes plays the role that the transition matrix does in the theory of Markov processes with a finite state space.
asymmetric laplace distributionIn probability theory and statistics, the asymmetric Laplace distribution is a continuous probability distribution which is a generalization of the Laplace distribution.
poisson binomial distributionIn probability theory and statistics, the Poisson binomial distribution is the discrete probability distribution of a sum of independent Bernoulli trials that are not necessarily identically distributed.
