Fitting Dynamic Models to Data Adapt our dynamic models in a probabilistic framework so we can ask: What is the probability that a model would have generated the observed data? What is the likelihood of a model given the data?
Likelihood of parameters (given data)
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Distribution Binomial Distribution
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Distribution Normal Distribution
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Distribution Exponential Distribution
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Distribution Poisson Distribution
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Distribution Binomial Distribution Stochastic Component of Model
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Data Distribution HIV in Harare
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Data Distribution Expectation of distributional parameters, given model Stochastic Component of Model
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Data Distribution Expectation of distributional parameters, given model Model S I Stochastic Component of Model Deterministic Component of Model
Likelihood of parameters (given data) Data Distribution Expectation of distributional parameters, given model Model S I Stochastic Component of Model Deterministic Component of Model Parameters (some fixed and others to be fitted)
Parameters (some fixed and others to be fitted) Likelihood of parameters (given data) Data Distribution Expectation of distributional parameter(s), given model Time series prevalence Time series cases Model S I
