Stochastic optimization — (SO) methods are optimization algorithms which incorporate probabilistic (random) elements, either in the problem data (the objective function, the constraints, etc.), or in the algorithm itself (through random parameter values, random choices,… … Wikipedia
Stochastic modelling (insurance) — This page is concerned with the stochastic modelling as applied to the insurance industry. For other stochastic modelling applications, please see Monte Carlo method. For mathematical definition, please see Stochastic process.tochastic model… … Wikipedia
Stochastic differential equation — A stochastic differential equation (SDE) is a differential equation in which one or more of the terms is a stochastic process, thus resulting in a solution which is itself a stochastic process. SDE are used to model diverse phenomena such as… … Wikipedia
