A stochastic formulation of the Bass model of new-product diffusion

For a large variety of new products, the Bass Model (BM) describes the empirical cumulative-adoptions curve extremely well. The BM postulates that the trajectory of cumulative adoptions of a new product follows a deterministic function whose instantaneous growth rate depends on two parameters, one o...
