nreo:canonicalLabel "probabilistic analysis" (en)
-
skos:definition "Often taken to be synonymous with <i><b>stochastic analysis</b></i>. Strictly, however, <br/>'stochastic' conveys directly the idea of randomness (or at least apparent <br/>randomness), whereas 'probabilistic' is directly related to probabilities, and <br/>hence only indirectly concerned with randomness. Therefore, a natural <i>event<br/></i>or 'process' might more correctly be described as 'stochastic' (as in <i>stochastic <br/>effect</i>), whereas 'probabilistic' would be more appropriate for describing a <br/>mathematical 'analysis' of 'stochastic' 'events' or 'processes' and their consequences <br/>(such an 'analysis' would, strictly, only be 'stochastic' if the analytical method <br/>itself included an element of randomness, e.g. Monte Carlo 'analysis').<br/>" (en)
