Instructor(s): Cong Ma
Teaching Assistant(s): Kulunu Ransika Dharmakeerthi, Kiho Park
Class Schedule: Sec 1: MWF 12:30 PM–1:20 PM in Ryerson 251
Textbook(s): Ross, Introduction to Probability Models (12th ed)
Description: This course introduces stochastic processes as models for a variety of phenomena in the physical and biological sciences. Following a brief review of basic concepts in probability, we introduce stochastic processes that are popular in applications in sciences (e.g., discrete time Markov chain, the Poisson process, continuous time Markov process, renewal process and Brownian motion).
