A. Tschuprow in Metron II. 461 Every stochastical (1) theory of statistics sees in the empirical statistical numbers images of certain really significant quantities—reflected confuse[d] images blurred..by the Chance. [Note] (1) I use the word ‘stochastical’ as synonymous to ‘based on the theory of probability’—cf. J. Bernoulli, Ars Conjectandi, Basileae, 1713, p. 213 ‘Ars Conjectandi sive Stochastice nobis definitur ars metiendi quam fieri potest exactissimi probabilitates rerum’ and L. v. Bortkiewicz, Die Iterationen.] 1934 Proc. National Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 20 376 A stochastic process is defined by Khintchine to be a one parameter set of chance variables: x(t), −∞ < t < ∞. 1943 Rev. Mod. Physics XV. 32 That we should be able to idealize Brownian motion as a Markoff process appears very reasonable. But we should be careful not to conclude too hastily that every stochastic process is necessarily of the Markoff type. 1957 New Scientist 20 June 17/3 A new approach to population dynamics was needed, and quite recently this has been provided by J. G. Skellam in the form of a stochastic model which allows the experimentalist to regard his population as a random variable at each instant in time, and is much more flexible than the earlier deterministic equations. 1968 P. A. P. Moran Introd. Probability Theory iii. 108 We have already dealt with some simple cases of successive trials in which the probabilities at each stage depend on what has happened before... As the successive stages can be regarded as successive instants of time the sequence of events may be regarded as a ‘random’ or ‘stochastic’..process. 1971 Kimura & Ohta Theoret. Aspects Population Genetics iii. 33 In any finite population, gene frequencies are subject to stochastic change due to random sampling of gametes. 1979 Sci. Amer. Mar. 64/2 (advt.) The key was recognizing that the star formation process was ‘stochastic’. That is, new massive stars are not necessarily created adjacent to a supernova; rather, a probability exists for their formation. < as lemmas |
