Some of you have noticed that characteristics (density, expectation, variance etc.) of the gamma distribution in the formula sheet (section 9c) and in our lectures/exercise classes (see e.g. slide 13/27 of Lecture 14) are different. There is no contradiction: the reason is that in the formula sheet they use a different (but equivalent) parametrization.

If, in the formula sheet, you put

beta = 1/lambda

you will obtain exactly what we had during the lectures. In particular, in the formula sheet parametrization, 

E[X] = alpha*beta,

whereas in the parametrization we used during the lectures (and which is more convenient for our course)

E[X] = alpha/lambda.

As it was already mentioned, there will be 3 problems on the exam (which cover 3 major topics of the course) - the structure of the exam will be approximately the same as the one of the trial exam posted some time ago.

However, if one wants to prepare even better, one can solve the following:

Problem 1:  Problem 1 of Exam 2021, Problems 1 and 2 of Exam 2020, Problem 1 of Exam 2018, Problems 1 and 2 of Exam 2017, Problem 1 of Exam 2016, ...

Dear all,

The exam is approaching, so here are some important announcements.

1) The STK1100/STK1110 formula sheet will be handed out together with the problem set. However, it will be the fresher version in Norwegian (link). If you need an older version in English, you have to print and bring it yourself.

2) As I mentioned before, Problem 3 will be very easy for those who pay special attention to Lecture 26 and Lecture 28 (examples and proofs included!) However, I noticed a tiny typo in Example ...

On Friday, 27th of May, at 16:00, we will have a summary lecture where we will go through the problems of the trial exam and discuss some related topics.

The lecture will be on Zoom: https://uio.zoom.us/j/64772747645?pwd=MGlBTjErTDc5bXJUM1htOENqTk4vUT09

Dear all,

Here you can find a trial exam the structure of which resembles the structure of the true examination. 

There will be three problems covering three main topics of our course:

  1. Discrete-time Markov chains;
  2. Poisson process;
  3. Continuous-time Markov chains and birth-and-death processes.

Note that we have already covered the material of the first two topics. Topic 3 is being considered during the lectures at the moment.

During the exam, you will be allowed to use an approved calculator as well as List of formulas for STK1100/STK1110...

Dear all,

Since we gradually approach the Exam, it is the time to prepare for it. And the best way to do so is to look through the Exams of the previous years.

There were (and there will be more) discussions of the exam problems during the Exercise Sessions. However, for your convenience, here are links to exams of the previous two years (with full solutions):

Exam 2020

Exam 2021

Do not worry: you are not supposed to know how to solve the last problems right now - this material will be covered later on.

Good luck with preparations!

I have slightly updated the text of the mandatory assignment again - the changes concern only the Problem 2(c).
I clarified the question of the problem (formally speaking, you have to find a limit of some probabilities, so I have put a short explanation on this) as well as extended the hint, so now it should be clear how to approach the solution.

Publisert 18. mars 2022 14:40

I see that many of you have struggles with Problem 2(a). It is indeed a bit tricky, so I decided to remove it from the Assignment (instead you are asked to describe the state space in Problem 2(b)). The updated version of the Assignment has already been uploaded.
