	Stochastic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Stochastic, from the Greek "stochos" or "goal", means of, relating to, or characterized by conjecture; conjectural; random.
		A stochastic process is one whose behavior is non-deterministic in that the next state of the environment is not fully determined by the previous state of the environment.
		Stochastic music was pioneered by Iannis Xenakis, who used probability, game theory, group theory, set theory, and Boolean algebra, and frequently used computers to produce his scores.

	Stochastic process - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the most common applications, the domain over which the function is defined is a time interval (a stochastic process of this kind is called a time series in applications) or a region of space (a stochastic process being called a random field).
		A stochastic process is a random function, that is a random variable X defined on a probability space (Ω, Pr) with values in a space of functions F.
		Stochastic processes may be defined in higher dimensions by attaching a multivariate random variable to each point in the index set, which is equivalent to using a multidimensional index set.

	Stochastics at Trade10.com- The science of trading market momentum for stocks, options, futures and bonds.
		At a reading of zero, the Stochastic Oscillator implies that the securities close is at the lowest price that it has traded during the preceding x periods (x being defined as the number of periods in the calculation).
		The basis for interpreting the stochastic is the assumption that prices tend to close near the upper part of a trading range during an up trend and near the lower part during a downtrend.
		Not always will a reversal follow periods when the Stochastic is in over-bought or over-sold area's, however the presence in over-bought and over-sold alerts a trader to look for further evidence that a price trend reversal may be near.

	PlanetMath: stochastic process (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		Sometimes, a stochastic process is also called a random process, although a stochastic process is generally linked to any “time” dependent process.
		In statistics, a stochastic process is often known as a time series, where the index set is a finite (or at most countable) ordered sequence of real numbers.
		This is version 7 of stochastic process, born on 2004-09-28, modified 2006-02-24.

		In addition, a comparison of the stochastic approach with the deterministic approach was made in order to appreciate the relative merit of the stochastic method in the analysis of gene regulation data.
		The inherent stochasticity of biochemical processes such as transcription and translation generates “intrinsic” noise; in addition, fluctuations in the amounts or states of other cellular components lead indirectly to variations in the expression of a particular gene and thus represent “extrinsic” noise.
		The stochastic approach would be a favorable tool in the understanding of cell kinetics/dynamics and the analysis of the drug resistance during long-term drug therapy.

		While similar to the Stochastic Oscillator, the SMI displays where the close is relative to the midpoint of the recent high/low range, as compared to the close relative to the recent high/low with the Stochastic Oscillator.
		As with the Stochastic Oscillator, the Stochastic RSI is usually accompanied by a second line %D which is an EMA of the Stochastic values.
		It is possible to trade stochastics in a trend by ignoring the usual overbought and oversold levels and entering the market when the end of a reaction against the trend is signaled by a stochastic crossover from any level.

	Stochastic Oscillator (Fast, Slow, and Full) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		Developed by George C. Lane in the late 1950s, the Stochastic Oscillator is a momentum indicator that shows the location of the current close relative to the high/low range over a set number of periods.
		For Slow and Fast Stochastics, the first parameter is the period of the %K calculation and the second parameter is the period of the %D signal line.
		The Full Stochastic uses three parameters: the period for %K (fast), the period for the SMA that smooths %K (fast), and the period of the SMA that forms %D (full).

		Stochastic turns at the end of the two reaction waves 2 and 4 did not have divergence.
		Now that the fundamental behavior of Stochastic is understood as the Elliott waves develop in a market, the theoretical chart will be used to observe the effect of different parameters on the Stochastic formula.
		If the raw Stochastic is not smoothed by averaging, then this is called a Fast %K. The raw Stochastic that is smoothed by averaging is called a Slow %K. These examples show the effect of the %K parameter on a 9 Bar Stochastic with 3 for the %D parameter using Exponential averages.

	So long, moiré, hello, stochastic
		In stochastic screening, images are created through a varying frequency of dots; these screens are also referred to as frequency-modulated, or FM.
		The theory behind stochastic screening is well-established, but the first implementation of this theory didn't come to market until 1993, in the form of CristalRaster from Agfa (Ridgefield Park, NJ).
		Both stochastic and hybrid screens are on the rise, and most vendors have been experiencing increased demand.

	Stochastic projections
		A stochastic model is a tool for estimating probability distributions of potential outcomes by allowing for random variation in one or more inputs over time.
		Distributions of potential outcomes are derived from a large number of simulations (stochastic projections) which reflect the random variation in the input(s).

		Developed by George Lane, the Stochastic Oscillator is a momentum indicator that measures the price of a currency or commodity relative to the high/low range over a set period of time.
		A 14-period Stochastic Oscillator reading of 30 would indicate that the current price was 30% above the lowest low of the last 14 days and 70% below the highest high.
		The Stochastic Oscillator can be used like any other oscillator by looking for overbought/oversold readings, positive/negative divergences and centerline crossovers.

		Stochastic search algorithms strongly use randomised decisions while searching for solutions to a given problem.
		Over the past few years there has been considerable success in developing stochastic local search algorithms as well as randomised systematic search methods for solving these problems, and to date, for many problem domains, the best known algorithms are based on stochastic search techniques.
		The increasing relevance and popularity of these methods in AI are reflected by a growing number of publications in journals, such as Artificial Intelligence and the Journal of Automated Reasoning, and at major AI conferences, such as IJCAI, ECAI, and AAAI.

		If one then wishes to form a large mass of point-notes, such as string pizzicati, one must know these mathematical laws, which in any case, are no more than a tight and concise expression of a chain of logical reasoning.
		Xenakis often writes about his experiences during World War II –; the great social upheaval that brought us computers and refined nuclear physics, and that exposed the world to some of the greatest carnage in human history – as a kind of abstract crucible, a place that forged his fascination with turbulence.
		But the “stochastic method” Xenakis employs (stochastic here refers to the notion of change as a series of contingencies), has deeper roots in his own continuous engagement with extreme change.

		Stochastic printing also uses tiny dots of ink.
		Unlike a traditional line-screen however, stochastic printing uses very tiny dots (in our case 0.25 micron dots) that are all the same size.
		Because the stochastic ink dots are so small, they reproduce exquisite detail and smooth tonalities far better than line-screen printing.
