Abstract

We describe a Markov state model for a cloned potassium channel of the human heart (IKvLQT1). The parameters of the model are determined by a least-squares fit of predicted vs. measured data. The fitting process is achieved by using the `SPSA' optimizer to sequentially choose trial values of the parameters. At each choice of parameter value, a loss function is computed by simulating the action of the channel at that trial parameter value. When the optimizer has converged, the parameter value represents the best fit.
