Abstract:Model selection is becoming increasingly important in mathematical biology.Model selection often involves comparing a set of observations with predictions from a suite of continuum mathematical models and selecting the model that provides the best explanation of the data. In this work we consider the more challenging problem of model selection in a stochastic setting. We consider five different stochastic models describing population growth. Through simulation we show that all five stochastic models gives rise… Show more
