We study a connection between the algebraic probability and classical stochastic processes described by master equations. Introducing a definition of a state which has not been used for quantum cases, the classical stochastic processes can be reformulated in terms of the algebraic probability. This reformulation immediately gives the Doi-Peliti formalism, which has been frequently used in nonequilibrium physics. As an application of the reformulation, we give a derivation of basic equations for counting statistics, which plays an important role in nonequilibrium physics.

Brief description of research findings for the period 1 April 1976 to 30 June 1982: The results refer to a number of topics in the construction of tests or estimates with applications to selection procedures for studies, weather modification, tests of fit for logistic models competing risks, identifiability in Markov processes. A list of papers published and a list of Ph.D. granted are appended. (Author)
