Probabilistic model checking and Markov decision processes (MDPs) form two interlinked branches of formal analysis for systems operating under uncertainty. These techniques offer a mathematical ...

Random walks on networks is the standard tool for modelling spreading processes in social and biological systems. This first-order Markov approach is used in conventional community detection, ranking ...

Until recently, Markov models and analytical methods were fairly obscure mathematical techniques rarely applied outside of academic settings. The advent of functional safety standards, particularly ...
