Figure 9

Illustration of mean first passage time. (a) F k (probability of first visit at time step k) plotted for two arbitrary attractors, called a and b, in a random Boolean network for 2500 steps (k). The red curve is for the transition from a to b that has a low MFPT compared to the reverse transition, b to a (shown with the blue curve); (b) kF k plotted for the F k curves in (a). Note that MFPT is the centroid of area under the kF k curve.
