The proposed method uses SSA (Stochastic Simulation Algorithm) distribution which is a standard method for solving well-stirred chemically reacting systems as a desired distribution. A new numerical solvers based on exponential form of exact and approximate solutions of CME (Chemical Master Equation) is employed for obtaining target and proposal distributions in Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to accelerate the accuracy of the tau-leap method. Samples generated by this technique have the same distribution as SSA and the histogram of samples show it’s convergence to SSA.322 - 335 (14) page(s)application/pdfenIn CopyrightMathematics, AppliedMathematicsMetropolis-HastingsSSACMEtau-leapREACTING SYSTEMSSIMULATIONALGORITHMSSolving stochastic chemical kinetics by Metropolis-Hastings samplingArticle - RefereedJournal of Applied Analysis And Computationhttps://doi.org/10.11948/201602562
