Beginner #MarkovChains question:
I'm working on a small analysis program for a friend. It's already existing code where you select a number of labels from a labelled sequence of interactions and then supposedly get a transition matrix from them.

BUT - the code ignores intermediate labels when counting transitions.
e.g. if a sequence has three labelled members w,x,y, and you only want to analyse w, and y, the current code would count that as a transition from w to y, ignoring the intervening x.

This does not seem appropriate for calculating transition probabilities. If I understand correctly, this should not be counted at all, since the transition was w -x, then x-y.

Does that sound like I have understood correctly?

🚨 BREAKING: High school essay from 2012 declares *Markov Chains* as the OG language models! 🙄 Apparently, *Linear Algebra 101* had all the answers before #AI got cool. Who knew teenage musings could redefine the hype cycle? 😂

Teaching ChatGPT-4o is a great way to learn.

It's always nice to notice you know something ChatGPT doesn't know, as it typically means you know something most specialists in the field don't know:

So the results are fun to browse, but sometimes a bit too nonsensical.

Anyone experienced with #MarkovChains able to share any tips on how to make the output better?
