Together with the fundamentals of probability, random processes and statistical analysis, this insightful book also presents a broad range of advanced topics and applications. There is extensive coverage of Bayesian vs. frequentist statistics, time series and spectral representation, inequalities, bound and approximation, maximum-likelihood estimation and the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, geometric Brownian motion and Itô process. Applications such as hidden Markov models (HMM), the Viterbi, BCJR, and Baum–Welch algorithms, algorithms for machine learning, Wiener and Kalman filters, and queueing and loss networks are treated in detail. The book will be useful to students and researchers in such areas as communications, signal processing, networks, machine learning, bioinformatics, econometrics and mathematical finance. With a solutions manual, lecture slides, supplementary materials and MATLAB programs all available online, it is ideal for classroom teaching as well as a valuable reference for professionals.
A bivariate Markov process comprises a pair of random processes which are jointly Markov. One of the two processes in that pair is observable while the other plays the role of an underlying process. We are interested in three classes of bivariate Markov processes. In the first and major class of interest, the underlying and observable processes are continuous-time with finite alphabet; in the second class, they are discrete-time with finite alphabet; and in the third class, the underlying process is continuous-time with uncountably infinite alphabet, and the observable process is continuous-time with countably or uncountably infinite alphabet. We refer to processes in the first two classes a...
"Kobayashi and Mark present the most up-to-date analytical models, simulation techniques, and computational algorithms useful for performance evaluation of complex systems - including computer systems, communication networks, transportation systems, and manufacturing systems. Broader in scope than other texts, this book provides more in-depth coverage of topics such as computational algorithms and approximations. It appeals to students with a background or interest in a wide range of areas, including systems analysis or telecommunication networks."--Publisher's website.
