Description of Research
This research is on analytical methods to find Mean First Passage Time (MFPT) on non-homogenous media. The importance of First encounter properties of random propagation scenarios ranging from disaster propagation through disease propagation to the propagation of gossip makes an accurate estimation of MFPT crucial. The main aim of this research is understanding ways to simplify a given non-homogenous medium, trying to identify and cluster homogeneous portions into primitives.
