Stochastic vs. deterministic modeling of intracellular viral kinetics.
Within its host cell, a complex coupling of transcription, translation, genome replication, assembly, and virus release processes determines the growth rate of a virus. Mathematical models that account for these processes can provide insights into the understanding as to how the overall growth cycle depends on its constituent reactions. Deterministic models based on ordinary differential equati...
متن کاملStochastic vs Deterministic Mechanisms in Multidimensional Screening
This paper studies the multidimensional screening problem of a profit-maximizing monopolist who designs and sells goods with multiple indivisible attributes. The buyer’s utility is linear in the probabilities of obtaining the attributes. The values of the attributes are buyer’s private information. The paper solves the seller’s problem for an arbitrary number of attributes when there are two ty...
متن کاملMathematical Modeling of HCV Viral Kinetics
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a single-stranded RNA virus that infects the hepatocytes of the liver. Infected cells become damaged and release alanine aminotransferase (ALT), which exists normally within liver cells. Our main goal in this project was to determine the usefullness of ALT levels to determine the outcome of HCV treatment and viral load levels. As part of our investigations, we first l...
متن کاملDeterministic in contrast to stochastic modeling.
The first attempt to model a process is often a deterministic setup with differential equations. The existing stochastic influence is suppressed and hopefully negligible. However, sometimes the stochastic component is important. We demonstrate and clarify this for a growth process. The deterministic approach is given by Yn + 1 = Yn + g(Yn) or dYt = g(Yt)dt, Y0 = 1, g a positive function. The co...
