Learning Outcomes
Competences
Students are able to model random events and solve concrete examples without in-depth knowledge of measure theory.
Skills Knowledge
  • Calculate probabilities of random events, expected values, variances and covariances of random variables both analytically and with the Mathematica programme (k2,k3)
  • Apply the stochastic processes as mathematical models of systems and phenomena that appear to vary in a random manner (k2,k3)
  • Random experiment, relative frequency, Laplace experiments, combinatorial calculations, geometric probability, conditional probability, independent events, random variables and distributions
  • Probability densities of discrete and continuous distributions, cumulative distribution functions, expectation and variance, joint distributions, conditional distribution, independent random variables, the binomial distribution, the Poisson distribution, the normal distribution
  • Definition of a stochastic process, the Bernoulli process, the Poisson process, random Walk, Brownian motion, stationarity of stochastic processes
  • Markov chain with a discrete time, Markov chain with a continuous time
