 | Hi all,
Flipping coin, until the pattern HHT appears:
I have constructed a Markov Chain model in order to find the
mean-time-to-pattern...
But I always got confused in constructing this kind of MC models... my
stupid way needs 8 states:
HHH
HHT
HTH
HTT
THH
THT
TTH
TTT
I am wondering if there are any better models with less states... for the
purpose of computing mean-time-to-pattern...
Any generic techniques for this kind of modeling?
Thanks a lot
