Algebraic methods and arguments in statistics and probability are well known, from Gauss's least squares principle through Fisher's method of variance decomposition. The relevance of group-theoretic arguments, for example, became evident in the 1980s. Such techniques continue to be of interest, along with other developments, such as the use of graph theory in modelling complex stochastic systems.
