Boilerpipe Text
Brownian motion is another widely-used random process. It has been used in engineering, finance, and physical sciences. It is a Gaussian random process and it has been used to model motion of particles suspended in a fluid, percentage changes in the stock prices, integrated white noise, etc. Figure 11.29 shows a sample path of Brownain motion. Figure 11.29 - A possible realization of Brownian motion. In this section, we provide a very brief introduction to Brownian motion. It is worth noting that in order to have a deep understanding of Brownian motion, one needs to understand It o ¯ calculus , a topic that is beyond the scope of this book. A good place to start learning I t o ¯ calculus is [25] . The print version of the book is available on Amazon . Practical uncertainty: Useful Ideas in Decision-Making, Risk, Randomness, & AI

*** Brownian motion is another widely-used random process. It has been used in engineering, finance, and physical sciences. It is a Gaussian random process and it has been used to model motion of particles suspended in a fluid, percentage changes in the stock prices, integrated white noise, etc. Figure 11.29 shows a sample path of Brownain motion. ![BM](https://www.probabilitycourse.com/images/chapter11/BM_b.png) Figure 11.29 - A possible realization of Brownian motion. In this section, we provide a very brief introduction to Brownian motion. It is worth noting that in order to have a deep understanding of Brownian motion, one needs to understand It o ¯ *calculus*, a topic that is beyond the scope of this book. A good place to start learning I t o ¯ calculus is [\[25\]](https://www.probabilitycourse.com/bibliography.php#BM-calculus08). *** | | |---| | The print version of the book is available on [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Probability-Statistics-Random-Processes/dp/0990637204/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1408880878&sr=8-1&keywords=pishro-nik).
