Processus de Poissonvignette|Schéma expliquant le processus de Poisson Un processus de Poisson, nommé d'après le mathématicien français Siméon Denis Poisson et la loi du même nom, est un processus de comptage classique dont l'équivalent discret est la somme d'un processus de Bernoulli. C'est le plus simple et le plus utilisé des processus modélisant une . C'est un processus de Markov, et même le plus simple des processus de naissance et de mort (ici un processus de naissance pur).
Stochastic geometryIn mathematics, stochastic geometry is the study of random spatial patterns. At the heart of the subject lies the study of random point patterns. This leads to the theory of spatial point processes, hence notions of Palm conditioning, which extend to the more abstract setting of random measures. There are various models for point processes, typically based on but going beyond the classic homogeneous Poisson point process (the basic model for complete spatial randomness) to find expressive models which allow effective statistical methods.
Moment measureIn probability and statistics, a moment measure is a mathematical quantity, function or, more precisely, measure that is defined in relation to mathematical objects known as point processes, which are types of stochastic processes often used as mathematical models of physical phenomena representable as randomly positioned points in time, space or both. Moment measures generalize the idea of (raw) moments of random variables, hence arise often in the study of point processes and related fields.
Continuum percolation theoryIn mathematics and probability theory, continuum percolation theory is a branch of mathematics that extends discrete percolation theory to continuous space (often Euclidean space Rn). More specifically, the underlying points of discrete percolation form types of lattices whereas the underlying points of continuum percolation are often randomly positioned in some continuous space and form a type of point process. For each point, a random shape is frequently placed on it and the shapes overlap each with other to form clumps or components.
Processus de CoxUn processus de Cox (nommé d'après le statisticien britannique David Cox), connu aussi sous le nom de double processus stochastique de Poisson, est un processus stochastique généralisant le processus de Poisson dans lequel la moyenne n'est pas constante mais varie dans l'espace ou le temps. Dans le cadre du processus de Cox, l'intensité dépendant du temps est un processus stochastique séparé du processus de Poisson. Un exemple serait un potentiel d'action (appelé aussi influx nerveux) d'un neurone sensoriel avec une stimulation externe.
