This book introduces students to probability, statistics, and stochastic processes. It can be used by both students and practitioners in engineering, various sciences, finance, and other related fields. It provides a clear and intuitive approach to these topics while maintaining mathematical accuracy. The book covers:
- Basic concepts such as random experiments, probability axioms, conditional probability, and counting methods
- Single and multiple random variables (discrete, continuous, and mixed), as well as moment-generating functions, characteristic functions, random vectors, and inequalities
- Limit theorems and convergence
- Introduction to Bayesian and classical statistics
- Random processes including processing of random signals, Poisson processes, discrete-time and continuous-time Markov chains, and Brownian motion
- Simulation using MATLAB and R (online chapters)
