Fig. 1From: Measuring Edge Importance: A Quantitative Analysis of the Stochastic Shielding Approximation for Random Processes on Graphs3-state chain. Graph with three nodes and four reactions (edges) such that a transition from state i(k) to state j(k) happens at rate α k . For this example, we assume that only state 3 is observed. This is the system shown in Fig. 1 of Schmandt and Galán [14]Back to article page
