Introduction to Probability Models, 8th Edition, continues to introduce and inspire readers to the art of applying probability theory to phenomena in fields such as engineering, computer science, management and actuarial science, the physical and social sciences, and operations research. Now revised and updated, this best-selling book retains its hallmark intuitive, lively writing style, captivating introduction to applications from diverse disciplines, and plentiful exercises and worked-out examples.
The 8th Edition includes five new sections and numerous new examples and exercises, many of which focus on strategies applicable in risk industries such as insurance or actuarial work.
The five new sections include:
* Section 3.6.4 presents an elementary approach, using only conditional expectation, for computing the expected time until a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables produce a specified pattern.
* Section 3.6.5 derives an identity involving compound Poisson random variables and then uses it to obtain an elegant recursive formula for the probabilities of compound Poisson random variables whose incremental increases are nonnegative and integer valued
* Section 5.4.3 is concerned with a conditional Poisson process, a type of process that is widely applicable in the risk industries
* Section 7.10 presents a derivation of and a new characterization for the classical insurance ruin probability.
* Section 11.8 presents a simulation procedure known as coupling from the past; its use enables one to exactly generate the value of a random variable whose distribution is that of the stationary distribution of a given Markov chain, even in cases where the stationary distribution cannot itself be explicitly determined.

本書作為隨即過程的入門教材,結閤概率模型進行理解,很好。不過不是想國內偏理論的書從測度論和空間嚴格開寫。而是把重點放在瞭概念和解釋概念上,實用。所以書中有大量的例子,這也是國外書的一大特點,易懂,但不簡單。Ross的這些方麵的書都比較經典。PS:書中好多例子是關...
評分一本大牛寫的好書翻譯成這樣,每一句基本感覺都隻是直接照著原文變換一下,倒更像是SMT翻譯的結果. 真是糟蹋. 現在這些導師翻譯書,隨便找幾個學生敷衍瞭事,翻譯的都不通順,罷瞭,找原著吧. 龔光魯,記住它!
評分雖說數學書的好壞一個方麵要看其例題 但這裏的例題實在是太全瞭 從保險到計算機,很難想象僅憑數學知識能理解這本書的內容 明顯是ROSS那本隨機過程的一個擴充本 我敢說 誰把這書弄透 那本科概率論與隨機過程就算是無敵瞭~ ~~~ 總之 是本好書
評分書中的例子很多,容易理解,數學書能夠做到這一步就非常好瞭。這本書還是北美精算師考試的推薦教材。翻譯的不大認真,條件狀語從句在翻譯時沒有提前,沒有英語語法基礎的會讀著比較混沌。建議看不大明白的去原版
