Lecture Notes on Applied Stochastic Analysis

By Tiejun Li

The aim of this course is to teach the students the basic modeling and simulation techniques used in applied stochastic analysis. With many vivid examples from science and engineering, the students are expected to grasp the probabilistic ideas and apply them into their own research fields.
