High-order Markov chain models extend the conventional framework by incorporating dependencies that span several previous states rather than solely the immediate past. This extension allows for a ...

This paper demonstrates the applicability of Markov chains to naval minesweeping theory, particularly influence sweeping against mines equipped with shipcounters. Following an introduction to ...

We focus our attention herein on a Markov chain $x_0, x_1, \cdots$ with a countable number of states indexed by a subset I of the integers and with stationary ...

A Markov chain is a mathematical concept of a sequence of events, in which each future event depends only on the state of the previous events. Like most mathematical concepts, it has wide-ranging ...

Amid all the hype about AI it sometimes seems as though the world has lost sight of the fact that software such as ChatGPT contains no intelligence. Instead it’s an extremely sophisticated system for ...
