TY - JOUR A2 - Swierniak, Andrzej AU - Wang, Chao AU - Huang, Ting-Zhu AU - Ching, Wai-Ki PY - 2014 DA - 2014/03/23 TI - A New Multivariate Markov Chain Model for Adding a New Categorical Data Sequence SP - 502808 VL - 2014 AB - We propose a new multivariate Markov chain model for adding a new categorical data sequence. The number of the parameters in the new multivariate Markov chain model is only 𝒪(3s) less than 𝒪((s+1)2) the number of the parameters in the former multivariate Markov chain model. Numerical experiments demonstrate the benefits of the new multivariate Markov chain model on saving computational resources.
