    This is amazing!
    I studied chemistry at university few years ago, and that definition of Markov Chains really makes me think of what we did with the equilibrium of the reactions with the different molecules. This is exactly the same kind of definitions: the different states are our different molecules, the probabilities have exactly the same role as our "reaction speed", and the conclusion is the same: the equilibrium is unique for a given system.
    Actually during the lecture I was trying to guess just from the diagram what the equilibrium would be hahaha.
    I feel sad that we were not even given a mention about markov chains back then.
    I was struggling with the last 3 lectures in this course, and even more in the assignments, but I'm so happy to see these descriptions I am already intuitively familiar with that my pain just flew away!

      that explains why not everyone works at the top positions after graduation. There's always those "top 5%" of students who get the cherry, and the "bottom 5%" who end up at "meh-" positions on average (or can't find a job at all)

  • @BryanSteeleSounds
    @BryanSteeleSounds Před 8 měsíci

    In the r21(n) scenario (47:10) it was said that the probability is 1/2 (due to the oscillation between the two possibilities), however if the sum does not converge, then --by design -- doesn't it have no sum ? In other words, is it not false to say it equals 1/2? (And how am I looking at this incorrectly, if this is, in fact, not the case?)

    • @andrzejkwasniewski1266
      @andrzejkwasniewski1266 Před 7 měsíci +1

      The probability of it staying in 2 is (0,4)^n which converges to 0. So for large n the probability of leaving 2 is 1, leaving you with r21=1/2

    Why did we use condition probability for r21(n) @46:00. Why is r21(n) not 0.3 instead?

    • @yw834
      @yw834 Před 3 lety

      r21(n) = 0.3 when n = 1. However, when n goes to infinity eventually you will get out of state 2 and you have equal probabiliy to go to state 1 or to state 3

  • @SandeepG118
    @SandeepG118 Před 9 lety

    Can anyone clarify my question....!
    At 32.01 it was told that r12(n) = 1- r11(n)... it is correct intuitively but if i calculate r12(n) using normal method i got it as r11(n-1)0.5+r12(n-1)0.8 which is not same as 1- r11(n) (Here r11(n) = r11(n-1)0.2+r12(n-1)0.5)

    • @ambastashobhit
      @ambastashobhit Před 9 lety +3

      Sandeep G Hi Sandeep...r12(n) = 1-r11(n) intuitively as well as mathematically. Just for verification add up the RHS of both the equations r11(n) = r11(n-1)0.5+r12(n-1)0.2 and r12(n) = r11(n-1)0.5+r12(n-1)0.8. Addition of RHS will give us r11(n-1)+r12(n-1) which equals the LHS: r11(n)+r12(n)
      In other words you will notice that: r11(n)+r12(n) = r11(n-1)+r12(n-1)
      Continuing the same process till initial stage is reached, r11(n)+r12(n) = r11(n-1)+r12(n-1) = r11(n-2)+r12(n-2) = r11(i)+r12(i) = r11(0)+r12(0); where (i) will denote any subsequent stage and (0) is the initial stage. Now we can see that either r11(0)=0 or 1 as in the initial stage either we will be in state 1 or in state 2, hence the total probability, r11(0)+r12(0)=1
      I hope that you could understand it....in case you don't just write down the equations on paper, it will be easier.
