A statistical study of the annual rainfall data at Cocch Behar district during the periodt90 1 to t9S ~ has been undertaken by using. Markov chain model. One step 3 X3 Ma rcov chain model has beenused in (his study. The outcomes of the model reveal normal, bad and good year of rainfall a t the two stationsof thi s district. The hypoth esis of independence has been tested on the use of entropy and it has been ver ifiedusing likelih ood ra tio criterion. The results of the two methods are the same-tha t the yearly rainfall occurrencemay be regarded as independent at the two places o f the district.

Our concern is with a particular problem which arises in connection with a discrete-time Markov chain model for a graded manpower system. In this model, the members of an organisation are classified into distinct classes. As time passes, they move from one class to another, or to the outside world, in a random way governed by fixed transition probabilities. In this paper, the emphasis is placed on evaluating exact values of the probabilities of attaining and maintaining a structure.

A Markov chain probability model has been fitted to the daily rainfall data recorded at Calcutta. The 'wet spell' and 'weather cycles' are found to obey geometric distribution, The distribution of the number of rainy days per week has been calculated and compared with the actual data.

This paper presents a way of using the Markov chain model for the analysis of migration based on the example of banknote migration between regions in Poland. We have presented the application of the methodology for estimating one-step transition probabilities for the Markov chain based on macro-data gathered during the project conducted in the National Bank of Poland (NBP) in the period of December 2015–2018. We have shown the usefulness of state-aggregated Markov chain not only as a model of banknote migration but as migration in general. The banknotes are considered here as goods, so their migration is strictly related to, inter alia, the movement of people (commuting to work, business trips, etc.).Thus, the gravity-like properties of cash migration pointed to the gravity model as one of the most pervasive empirical models in regional science. Transition probability of the Markov chain expressing the attractive force between regions allows for estimating the gravity model for the identification of relevant reasons of note and, consequently, people migration.

CpG islands (CGIs) play a vital role in genome analysis as genomic markers.  Identification of the CpG pair has contributed not only to the prediction of promoters but also to the understanding of the epigenetic causes of cancer. In the human genome [1] wherever the dinucleotides CG occurs the C nucleotide (cytosine) undergoes chemical modifications. There is a relatively high probability of this modification that mutates C into a T. For biologically important reasons the mutation modification process is suppressed in short stretches of the genome, such as ‘start’ regions. In these regions [2] predominant CpG dinucleotides are found than elsewhere. Such regions are called CpG islands. DNA methylation is an effective means by which gene expression is silenced. In normal cells, DNA methylation functions to prevent the expression of imprinted and inactive X chromosome genes. In cancerous cells, DNA methylation inactivates tumor-suppressor genes, as well as DNA repair genes, can disrupt cell-cycle regulation. The most current methods for identifying CGIs suffered from various limitations and involved a lot of human interventions. This paper gives an easy searching technique with data mining of Markov Chain in genes. Markov chain model has been applied to study the probability of occurrence of C-G pair in the given   gene sequence. Maximum Likelihood estimators for the transition probabilities for each model and analgously for the  model has been developed and log odds ratio that is calculated estimates the presence or absence of CpG is lands in the given gene which brings in many  facts for the cancer detection in human genome.
