Markov Chain
Used to model systems that transition from one state to another, where the next state only depends on the current state.
Brownian Motion
Models random continuous movement, often used to simulate particle paths or stock market fluctuations.
Poisson Process
Describes events occurring independently over time at a constant average rate, often used in queuing theory.
Wiener Process
A special case of Brownian motion, representing continuous-time random walks with Gaussian increments.
Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Process
Models mean-reverting behavior suitable for temperature variation or interest rates.
Random Walk
A sequential process where the next value is a random step from the current one, related to diffusion phenomena.
Levy Flight
A random walk with steps of varying sizes, often heavy-tailed, used to model foraging patterns and stock market movements.
Gaussian Process
Used for probabilistic modeling in machine learning for making predictions about complex, non-linear systems.
Jump-Diffusion Process
Combines Gaussian diffusion with Poisson jumps, suitable for option pricing and financial modeling with discontinuities.
Fokker-Planck Equation
A partial differential equation describing the time evolution of the probability density function of the velocity of a particle under the influence of drag forces and random forces.
