Description

A new approach to the stochastic analysis of general compartment models is presented. The analysis is based on the concept of diffusion approximations. The state of a compartment system is represented as the superposition of a deterministic process, characterized by a system of ordinary differential equations, and a random noise process characterized by stochastic differential equations. All transition rate parameters are permitted to be time dependent. Numerical solutions are presented for the two-compartment case. Extensions to non-linear compartment models are discussed.
