The state-transition matrix is used to find the solution to a general state-space representation of a linear system in the following form ˙ = () + (), =, where () are the states of the system, () is the input signal, () and () are matrix functions, and is the initial condition at .
In the state-transition table, all possible inputs to the finite-state machine are enumerated across the columns of the table, while all possible states are enumerated across the rows. If the machine is in the state S 1 (the first row) and receives an input of 1 (second column), the machine will stay in the state S 1.
In mathematics, a stochastic matrix is a square matrix used to describe the transitions of a Markov chain. Each of its entries is a nonnegative real number representing a probability. [1] [2]: 10 It is also called a probability matrix, transition matrix, substitution matrix, or Markov matrix.
According to the figure, a bull week is followed by another bull week 90% of the time, a bear week 7.5% of the time, and a stagnant week the other 2.5% of the time. Labeling the state space {1 = bull, 2 = bear, 3 = stagnant} the transition matrix for this example is
The state space or phase space is the geometric space in which the axes are the state variables. The system state can be represented as a vector, the state vector. If the dynamical system is linear, time-invariant, and finite-dimensional, then the differential and algebraic equations may be written in matrix form.
The fundamental matrix is used to express the state-transition matrix, an essential component in the solution of a system of linear ordinary differential equations. [3]
The changes of state of the system are called transitions. The probabilities associated with various state changes are called transition probabilities. The process is characterized by a state space, a transition matrix describing the probabilities of particular transitions, and an initial state (or initial distribution) across the state space ...
Change-of-basis matrix, associated with a change of basis for a vector space. Stochastic matrix , a square matrix used to describe the transitions of a Markov chain . State-transition matrix , a matrix whose product with the state vector x {\displaystyle x} at an initial time t 0 {\displaystyle t_{0}} gives x {\displaystyle x} at a later time t ...
