This course introduces some of the most useful probability models that are widely used in biology, medicine, economics, finance, engineering, physics and many other areas. The models that will be covered are Markov chains, martingales and Poisson processes.
be able to identify, formulate and solve certain probability problemsunderstand the model assumptions and mathematical properties of some commonrandom processes, which may include Markov chains, random walks, Poissonprocesses and martingales.be able to use these models in simple applications.
