Aalborg Universitet Learning dynamic Bayesian networks with mixed variables Bøttcher, Susanne Gammelgaard
... In a Bayesian network, the set of random variables X is fixed. To model a multivariate time series we need a framework, where we allow the set of random variables to vary with time. For this we use dynamic Bayesian networks, defined as below. This definition is consistent with the exposition in Murp ...

Central Limit Theorems for Conditional Markov Chains
... Extension to vector-valued functions. To establish a multi-dimensional version of the Central Limit Theorem for vector-valued functions g, we use the Cramér-Wold device (see, e.g., Lehmann (1999)). Without loss of generality, we may assume that the components of g have the following form: g (i) (x, ...

Markov chain
A Markov chain (discrete-time Markov chain or DTMC), named after Andrey Markov, is a random process that undergoes transitions from one state to another on a state space. It must possess a property that is usually characterized as ""memorylessness"": the probability distribution of the next state depends only on the current state and not on the sequence of events that preceded it. This specific kind of ""memorylessness"" is called the Markov property. Markov chains have many applications as statistical models of real-world processes.
