Markov chain analysis uses Markov models to analyze randomly changing systems where future states only depend on the present state, not past states. A Markov chain has a fixed set of states, transition probabilities between states, and will converge to a unique long-run distribution. Markov chains assume states are fully observable and the system is autonomous. Common examples include weather patterns and gambling. Markov chains can be modeled and simulated using R packages like msm and markovchain.

Markov chains are a very common model for systems that change probablistically over time. We show a few fun examples, define the objects, state the main theorems, and show how to find the steady-state vector.

We want to identify the point(s) in time at which the rate of event occurrences changes, where the number of events is increasing or decreasing in frequency.
The principle of quantum computing is the one which holds out the major role i.e. quantum superposition and quantum entanglement. In quantum super positioning, the concept of Schrödinger’s cat theory is very well recognized. In quantum entanglement the concept of qubits, its evolution and the involvement of major theories which brought up the evolution of quantum computing.

Abstract summary
Personalization and Scalable Deep Learning with MXNET: User return times and movie preferences are inherently time dependent. In this talk I will show how this can be accomplished efficiently using deep learning by employing an LSTM (Long Short Term Model). Moreover, I will show how to train large scale distributed parallel models using MXNet efficiently. This includes a brief overview of key components of defining networks, of optimization, and a walkthrough of the steps required to allocate machines, and to train a model.
Quantum computing is a rapidly developing field of computer science that explores the application of quantum mechanics to information processing. It promises to revolutionize the way we solve complex problems that are currently beyond the capabilities of classical computers.
This PowerPoint presentation provides an introduction to the basics of quantum computing, including the principles of quantum mechanics, the properties of quantum bits or qubits, quantum entanglement, quantum superposition, and types of quantum computing .

2. What is Markov Model?
• In probability theory, a Markov model is a stochastic model used
to model randomly changing systems where it is assumed that future
states depend only on the present state and not on the sequence of
events that preceded it (that is, it assumes the Markov property).
Generally, this assumption enables reasoning and computation with the
model that would otherwise be intractable.
• Some Examples are:
– Snake & ladder game
– Weather system
.
3. Assumptions for Markov model
• a fixed set of states,
• fixed transition probabilities, and the possibility of
getting from any state to another through a series of
transitions.
• a Markov process converges to a unique distribution
over states. This means that what happens in the long
run won’t depend on where the process started or on
what happened along the way.
• What happens in the long run will be completely
determined by the transition probabilities – the
likelihoods of moving between the various states.

use which model
System state is fully
observable
System state is partially
observable
System is autonomous Markov Chain Hidden Markov Model

5. Markov chain
• Here system states are observable and fully
autonomous.
• Simplest of all Markov models.
• Markov chain is a random process that undergoes
transitions from one state to another on a state space.
• It is required to possess a property that is usually
characterized as "memoryless": the probability
distribution of the next state depends only on the
current state and not on the sequence of events that
preceded it.
• Also remember we are considering that time is moving
in discrete steps.
6. Lets try to understand Markov chain
from very simple example
• Weather:
• raining today 40% rain tomorrow
• 60% no rain tomorrow
• not raining today 20% rain tomorrow
• 80% no rain tomorrow

8. Markov Process
• Markov Property: Xt+1, the state of the system at time t+1 depends
only on the state of the system at time t

x| XxXxxX| XxX tttttttt 111111 PrPr
• Stationary Assumption: Transition probabilities are independent of
time (t)
1Pr t t abX b| X a p
Let Xi be the weather of day i, 1 <= i <= t. We may
decide the probability of Xt+1 from Xi, 1 <= i <= t.

– Gambler starts with $10 (the initial state)
- At each play we have one of the following:
• Gambler wins $1 with probability p
• Gambler looses $1 with probability 1-p
– Game ends when gambler goes broke, or gains a fortune of $100
(Both 0 and 100 are absorbing states)

there is a 90% chance that his next cola purchase will
also be Coke.
• If a person’s last cola purchase was Pepsi, there is

Pepsi.

16. Supervised vs Unsupervised
Decision tree learning is “supervised
learning” as we know the correct output of
each example.
Learning based on Markov chains is
“unsupervised learning” as we don’t know
which is the correct output of “next letter”.

17. Implementation Using R
msm (Jackson 2011) :handles Multi-State Models
for panel data;
mcmcR (Geyer and Johnson 2013) implements
Monte Carlo Markov Chain approach;
hmm (Himmelmann and www.linhi.com 2010) fits
hidden Markov models with covariates;
mstate fits Multi-State Models based on Markov
chains for survival analysis (de Wreede, Fiocco,
and Putter 2011).

18. Implementaion using R
Example1:Weather Prediction:
The Land of Oz is acknowledged not to have ideal
weather conditions at all: the weather is snowy or rainy
very often and, once more, there are never two nice days
in a row. Consider three weather states: rainy, nice and
snowy, Given that today it is a nice day, the corresponding
stochastic row vector is w0 = (0 , 1 , 0) and the forecast
after 1, 2 and 3 days.
Solution: please refer solution.R attached.
