Solving the Chemical Master Equation with the Aggregation-Disaggregation Method
نویسنده
چکیده
Originally, aggregation and disaggregation were considered as acceleration techniques similar to multigrid methods for the solution of linear systems of equations. Recently we have demonstrated that these methods can also be used for the numerical solution of the chemical master equation. Here three scenarios are discussed where aggregation and disaggregation accelerate convergence, reduce complexity and lead to approximate solutions.

A modified uniformization method for the solution of the chemical master equation
The chemical master equation is considered an accurate description of general chemical systems, and especially so for modeling cell cycle and gene regulatory networks. This paper proposes an efficient way of solving the chemical master equation for some prototypical problems in systems biology. A comparison between this new approach and some traditional approaches is also given.

Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...
متن کاملPDE and Monte Carlo approaches to solving the master equation applied to gene regulation
Abstract. The Fokker-Planck equation (FPE) approximation is applied to a subspace of the state space of the chemical master equation (CME). The CME-FPE-hybrid method exploits the lower cost of the FPE approximation compared to the full CME. A fourth order finite difference approximation of the FPE part of the hybrid is described and demonstrated on a biologically relevant model in five dimensions.

sions can be obtained by using the generating function in solving the master equation. In addition, our approach allows for the computation of the probabilities for the number of S1 molecules at a certain time t when the reaction parameters, i.e., the initial number of molecules X1(0) and X2(0) of S1 and S2 , respectively, and the reaction rates c1 and c2 , are given. The master equation is a d...
متن کاملOn the Effects of Using the Grassmann-Taksar-Heyman Method in Iterative Aggregation-Disaggregation
Iterative aggregation{disaggregation (IAD) is an eeective method for solving nite nearly completely decomposable (NCD) Markov chains. Small perturbations in the transition probabilities of these chains may lead to considerable changes in the stationary probabilities; NCD Markov chains are known to be ill{conditioned. During an IAD step, this undesirable condition is inherited by the coupling ma...
