Determination of parameter identifiability in nonlinear biophysical models: A Bayesian approach
A major goal of biophysics is to understand the physical mechanisms of biological molecules and systems. Mechanistic models are evaluated based on their ability to explain carefully controlled experiments. By fitting models to data, biophysical parameters that cannot be measured directly can be estimated from experimentation. However, it might be the case that many different combinations of mod...
متن کاملParameter Identifiability of Fundamental Pharmacodynamic Models
Issues of parameter identifiability of routinely used pharmacodynamics models are considered in this paper. The structural identifiability of 16 commonly applied pharmacodynamic model structures was analyzed analytically, using the input-output approach. Both fixed-effects versions (non-population, no between-subject variability) and mixed-effects versions (population, including between-subject...
متن کاملA Hierarchical Bayesian Approach for Parameter Estimation in HIV Models
A hierarchical Bayesian approach is developed to estimate parameters at both the individual and the population level in a HIV model, with the implementation carried out by Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) techniques. Sample numerical simulations and statistical results are provided to demonstrate the feasibility of this approach.
متن کاملParameter Identifiability of Discrete Bayesian Networks with Hidden Variables
Identifiability of parameters is an essential property for a statistical model to be useful in most settings. However, establishing parameter identifiability for Bayesian networks with hidden variables remains challenging. In the context of finite state spaces, we give algebraic arguments establishing identifiability of some special models on small directed acyclic graphs (DAGs). We also establ...
متن کاملParameter identifiability of hydrological models with implicit structure: a numerical approach
This paper focuses on the identifiability problem of hydrological system modelling, taking implicit rainfall-runoff models as a target for study i.e. those models whose structures are nonlinear functions of their parameters. Because most implicit models and objective functions are very difficult as regards analytical solution or for finding high-order derivatives, a numerical analysis method is...
