=== Discrete-time process ===

Given a [[filtered probability space]] <math>(\Omega,\mathcal{F},(\mathcal{F}_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}},\mathbb{P})</math>, then a stochastic process <math>(X_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}</math> is ''predictable'' if <math>X_{n+1}</math> is [[measurable function|measurable]] with respect to the [[sigma algebra|&sigma;-algebra]] <math>\mathcal{F}_n</math> for each ''n''.<ref name="Zanten">{{cite web|title=An Introduction to Stochastic Processes in Continuous Time|first1=Harry|last1=van Zanten|date=November 8, 2004|url=http://www.cs.vu.nl/~rmeester/onderwijs/stochastic_processes/sp_new.pdf|format=pdf|accessdate=October 14, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120406084950/http://www.cs.vu.nl/~rmeester/onderwijs/stochastic_processes/sp_new.pdf |archive-date=April 6, 2012 |dead-url-status=yesdead}}</ref>

=== Continuous-time process ===

Given a filtered probability space <math>(\Omega,\mathcal{F},(\mathcal{F}_t)_{t \geq 0},\mathbb{P})</math>, then a [[continuous-time stochastic process]] <math>(X_t)_{t \geq 0}</math> is ''predictable'' if <math>X</math>, considered as a mapping from <math>\Omega \times \mathbb{R}_{+} </math>, is measurable with respect to the &sigma;-algebra generated by all left-continuous adapted processes.<ref>{{cite web|title=Predictable processes: properties |url=http://www.math.ku.dk/~jesper/teaching/b108/slides38.pdf |format=pdf |accessdate=October 15, 2011 |deadurlurl-status=yesdead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120331074812/http://www.math.ku.dk/~jesper/teaching/b108/slides38.pdf |archivedate=March 31, 2012 }}</ref>

This [[σ-algebra]] is also called the '''predictable σ-algebra'''.
