Abstract:This paper deals with the problem of determining the sufficient sample size needed to estimate the transition matrix in the Markov chain. In particular, this paper focuses on systems with insufficient data or a short frequency of time caused by the difficulty of acquiring data. This study developed a Markov chain simulation technique that achieves a sufficient sample and can be used to estimate the size of the transition probability, despite having a short frequency of time. It also shows how this technique ca… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
