  2. Reflection principle (Wiener process) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_principle...

    More formally, the reflection principle refers to a theorem concerning the distribution of the supremum of the Wiener process, or Brownian motion. The result relates the distribution of the supremum of Brownian motion up to time t to the distribution of the process at time t. It is a corollary of the strong Markov property of Brownian motion.

    The two-dimensional "spin 1/2" representation of the Lie algebra so(3), for example, does not correspond to an ordinary (single-valued) representation of the group SO(3). (This fact is the origin of statements to the effect that "if you rotate the wave function of an electron by 360 degrees, you get the negative of the original wave function.")

    we see that the law of under Q solves the equation defining , as ~ is a Q Brownian motion. In particular, we see that the right-hand side may be written as E Q [ Φ ( W ) ] {\displaystyle E_{Q}[\Phi (W)]} , where Q is the measure taken with respect to the process Y, so the result now is just the statement of Girsanov's theorem.

  5. Wiener process - Wikipedia

    A single realization of a one-dimensional Wiener process A single realization of a three-dimensional Wiener process. In mathematics, the Wiener process (or Brownian motion, due to its historical connection with the physical process of the same name) is a real-valued continuous-time stochastic process discovered by Norbert Wiener.

  6. Perception - Wikipedia

    The oldest quantitative laws in psychology are Weber's law, which states that the smallest noticeable difference in stimulus intensity is proportional to the intensity of the reference; and Fechner's law, which quantifies the relationship between the intensity of the physical stimulus and its perceptual counterpart (e.g., testing how much ...

  7. Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ornstein–Uhlenbeck_process

    A Brownian motion model implies that the phenotype can move without limit, whereas for most phenotypes natural selection imposes a cost for moving too far in either direction. A meta-analysis of 250 fossil phenotype time-series showed that an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model was the best fit for 115 (46%) of the examined time series, supporting ...

  8. Linear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motion

    Since linear motion is a motion in a single dimension, the distance traveled by an object in particular direction is the same as displacement. [4] The SI unit of displacement is the metre . [ 5 ] [ 6 ] If x 1 {\displaystyle x_{1}} is the initial position of an object and x 2 {\displaystyle x_{2}} is the final position, then mathematically the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Examples_of_Markov_chains

    A finite-state machine can be used as a representation of a Markov chain. Assuming a sequence of independent and identically distributed input signals (for example, symbols from a binary alphabet chosen by coin tosses), if the machine is in state y at time n , then the probability that it moves to state x at time n + 1 depends only on the ...
