ContinuousTimeMarkov.jl

A small package for working with continuous-time Markov transition rate matrices.

Currently exposes the following functionality:

• wrappers TransitionRateMatrix and TransitionRateMatrix! for creating transition rate matrices (square, nonnegative elements, rows sum to one), and steady_state for calculating steady state distributions.

• a CompetingPoisson distribution and random sampler for competing Poisson/exponential events.
