%%% readme.txt for bruce_evalFox %%%

This is Version 1.0 of the public distribution of the code for evaluation
of the stochastic Hodgkin-Huxley models described in:

    Bruce, I. C. (2009). "Evaluation of stochastic differential equation
    approximation of ion channel gating models," Annals of Biomedical
    Engineering 37(4):824838.

Please cite this paper if you publish any research results obtained with
this code or any modified versions of this code.

The Matlab scripts fig1 - fig10 can be run to generate figures like those
of Bruce (2009).

Note:-

1. The stochastic models will give slightly different results every time
   they are run, so the figures generated with this code will not match
   the published figures exactly.

2. Most of these simulations are set up to run for a long simulation
   duration and/or for many repetitions, in order to get accurate
   statistics.  If you would like to get some example results quicker,
   then shorten the simulation duration or reduce the number of trials.
   However, this will reduce the accuracy of the calculated statistics.

The functions APstats_v2, evalFox, evalFoxsinglem, findIthRS, gaussian,
intgausserr, stochasticHH_v2, stochasticHH_withK_VC & VCstats include
documentation for running them individually - just type "help" followed
by the function name at the Matlab command prompt.
