Parameter Estimation Using Interval Computations
Parameter estimation is the problem of finding the values of the unknowns of a mathematical model for simulating a complex system. A model is generally given by differential equations or systems of equations or inequalities. Interval computations are numerical computations over sets of real numbers. In this paper intervals are used to model uncertainty in parameter estimation problems—for insta...
متن کاملMethods for confidence interval estimation of a ratio parameter with application to location quotients
BACKGROUND The location quotient (LQ) ratio, a measure designed to quantify and benchmark the degree of relative concentration of an activity in the analysis of area localization, has received considerable attention in the geographic and economics literature. This index can also naturally be applied in the context of population health to quantify and compare health outcomes across spatial domai...
متن کاملGuaranteed Nonlinear Parameter Estimation via Interval Computations
The problem of estimating the parameters of a nonlinear model from prior knowledge, experimental data and collateral requirements is viewed as one of set inversion, which is solved in an approximate but guaranteed way with the tools of interval analysis. It is, for instance, possible to characterize the set of all parameter vectors that are consistent with the data in the sense that the errors ...
متن کاملNonlinear Parameter Estimation Using Interval Analysis
The reliable solution of nonlinear parameter estimation problems is an important computational problem in chemical process engineering, both in on-line and off-line applications. Conventional solution methods may not be reliable since they do not guarantee convergence to the global optimum sought in the parameter estimation problem. We demonstrate here a technique, based on interval analysis, t...
متن کاملTumor location and parameter estimation by thermography
In non-invasive thermal diagnostics, accurate correlations between the thermal image on skin surface and interior human pathophysiology are often desired, which require general solutions for the bioheat equation. In this paper, a difference scheme for the Pennes with a space-dependent thermal physiological parameters and convective boundary condition on the top surface, was used to approximate ...
