Stochastic process definition a stochastic process is a family of time indexed random variables x t where t belongs to an index set.
This is true for processes with continuous paths 2, which is the class of stochastic processes that we will study in these notes. In this case x t is a continuous time stochastic process. To allow readers and instructors to choose their own level of detail, many of the proofs begin with a nonrigorous answer to the question why is this true.

In general, to each stochastic process corresponds a family m of marginals of. From a statistical modeling perspective, this means it is inappropriate to treat a time series as a random sample of independent observations.

The theory of stochastic processes was developed during the 20th century by several mathematicians and physicists including smoluchowksi, planck, kramers, chandrasekhar, wiener, kolmogorov, ito. We shall try in this tutorial to illustrate both these points. To introduce students to use standard concepts and methods of stochastic process. Chapter 1 presents precise definitions of the notions of a random variable and a stochastic process and introduces the wiener and poisson processes.

A time series y t is a collection of observations on a variable indexed sequentially over several time points t 1, 2. Also, you probably have to change one of the input of x according to the indices i and j but the only vector you have in the expression is n 1 by 400 so you can use ni, but this leaves the j index unused.
