Livres/BooksAn Introduction to Probabilistic Modeling

An Introduction to Probabilistic Modeling is a basic introduction at the undergraduate level. It is designed for a one-semester course in which the student is exposed to the basic concepts of independence, expectation, convergence in law, and almost-sure convergence, and learns to carry out computations, especially those concerning Gaussian vectors and Poisson processes.

The text is complemented by a large number of exercises, each with a detailed solution. In addition, at the end of each chapter are short exposititons of additional,more advanced topics which illustrate the general theory developed in the text. Among them are Stochastic Processes, Bayesian Decision Theory, and Information Theory.

A familiarity with basic calculus and elementary matric algebra is required; however a knowledge of measure theory is not assumed.
