T8: Random discrete structures and their limits Discrete structures are omnipresent in mathematics, computer science, statistical physics, optimisation and models of natural phenomena. For instance, ...

A random variable that can take only a certain specified set of individual possible values-for example, the positive integers 1, 2, 3, . . . For example, stock prices are discrete random variables ...

Key Points Discrete data is categorical data, rather than continuous measurements. It can be treated as continuous data, but that depends on the measurements set. It allows you to quantify things ...

Up until now, QA has almost exclusively been used to solve discrete-variable functions (functions that have discrete-valued variables). The potential of QA for optimizing continuous-variable ...
