  2. Memorylessness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorylessness

    The memorylessness property asserts that the number of previously failed trials has no effect on the number of future trials needed for a success. Geometric random variables can also be defined as taking values in N 0 {\displaystyle \mathbb {N} _{0}} , which describes the number of failed trials before the first success in a sequence of ...

  3. Markov property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_property

    The term Markov assumption is used to describe a model where the Markov property is assumed to hold, such as a hidden Markov model. A Markov random field extends this property to two or more dimensions or to random variables defined for an interconnected network of items. [1] An example of a model for such a field is the Ising model.

  4. Exponential distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution or negative exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the distance between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate; the distance parameter could be any meaningful mono-dimensional measure of the process, such as time ...

  5. Markov chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain

    A Markov process is a stochastic process that satisfies the Markov property (sometimes characterized as "memorylessness"). In simpler terms, it is a process for which predictions can be made regarding future outcomes based solely on its present state and—most importantly—such predictions are just as good as the ones that could be made ...

  6. Noisy-channel coding theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noisy-channel_coding_theorem

    The proof runs through in almost the same way as that of channel coding theorem. Achievability follows from random coding with each symbol chosen randomly from the capacity achieving distribution for that particular channel.

  7. Geometric distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_distribution

    The geometric distribution is the only memoryless discrete probability distribution. [4] It is the discrete version of the same property found in the exponential distribution. [1]: 228 The property asserts that the number of previously failed trials does not affect the number of future trials needed for a success.

  8. Poisson point process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_point_process

    A visual depiction of a Poisson point process starting. In probability theory, statistics and related fields, a Poisson point process (also known as: Poisson random measure, Poisson random point field and Poisson point field) is 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 ...

  9. Channel capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_capacity

    The capacity of a discrete memoryless channel can be computed using the Blahut-Arimoto algorithm. Deep learning can be used to estimate the channel capacity. In fact, the channel capacity and the capacity-achieving distribution of any discrete-time continuous memoryless vector channel can be obtained using CORTICAL, [ 9 ] a cooperative ...
