In [[probability theory]], a '''piecewise-deterministic Markov process (PDMP)''' is a process whose behaviour is governed by random jumps at points in time, but whose evolution is deterministically governed by an [[ordinary differential equation]] between those times. The class of models is "wide enough to include as special cases virtually all the non-diffusion models of [[applied probability]]."<ref name="davis" /> The process is defined by three quantities: the flow, the jump rate, and the transition measure.<ref name="siam2010">{{Cite journal | last1 = Costa | first1 = O.
