This article needs to be translated into common English. The way it currently reads, I suspect that you need to be an expert in stochastic processes to understand it. The purpose should be to explain this topic in terms that an average person can grasp. I believe this currently is significantly beyond the grasp of an average person. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.108.65.66 (talk) 12:47, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
Agreed. The explanation of stochastic process http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_process could be incorporated. As a second year graduate student in public health, I needed to use that page instead of this one; Wikipedia entries, if I understand correctly, should have plain language introductions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcarras (talk • contribs) 18:54, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
The article needs to explain in common language what the stochastic calculus does. Currently it does not do that at all. I don't think formulas are of any use here, because its a complex subject already. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.3.151.251 (talk) 12:27, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
History?
editShouldn’t this article discuss when and where this became a branch of mathematics. Sure there is some hand waving and Einstein name dropping, but that’s not sufficient. Is this “new” in the last few decades or has it been around for a century? XKL (talk) 05:30, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
