The paper explains the application of a genetic algorithm (GA) to the problem of estimating parameters for a kinetic model of a biologically reacting system. It is demonstrated that the GA is a powerful tool for quantifying the kinetic parameters using kinetic data. As the operation of the GA does not depend on the form of the model equation, it can be applied to the wide spectrum of kinetic modelling problems without any complex formulation procedure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
