Abstract :
A stochastic approximation method is presented for determining the parameters of a stochastic state-space model for the student enrollment vector in an educational system. As an example, the parameters of such a model are derived for the student population in the Faculty of Engineering of McMaster University, Hamilton, Ont., Canada.
