The finite state projection algorithm for the solution of the chemical master equation
B Munsky, M Khammash�- The Journal of chemical physics, 2006 - pubs.aip.org
This article introduces the finite state projection (FSP) method for use in the stochastic
analysis of chemically reacting systems. One can describe the chemical populations of such
systems with probability density vectors that evolve according to a set of linear ordinary
differential equations known as the chemical master equation (CME). Unlike Monte Carlo
methods such as the stochastic simulation algorithm (SSA) or τ leaping, the FSP directly
solves or approximates the solution of the CME. If the CME describes a system that has a�…
