The present work demonstrates the connections between the Burgers, diffusion, and Schroedinger's equations. The starting point is a formulation of the stochastic mechanics, which is modeled along the lines of the scale relativity theory. The resulting statistical description obeys the Fokker-Planck equation. This paper further demonstrates the connection between the two approaches, embodied by the study of the Burgers equation, which from this perspective appears as a stochastic geodesic equation. The main result of the article is the transparent derivation of the Born rule from the starting point of a complex stochastic process, based on a complex Fokker-Planck formalism.
