Documentation IQMparamestGUI

The IQMparamestGUI is a graphical user-interface aiming at giving users, which are unfamiliar with the MATLAB command line interface, the possibility of using the IQM Tools Pro for parameter estimation tasks.

Its use is hopefully (almost) self-explaining. Essentially, the main steps are the following:

Load (or Import) a project using the File menu.
Choose the parameters/initial conditions you want to estimate. You need to specify their names and lower and upper bounds.
- Global parameters are model parameters that are the same across all experiments.
- Local parameters are experiment dependent.
- Initial conditions are always estimated experiment dependent.
The Initialize and Write out buttons help with this task. Try them out and you will see what they do. Copy and paste and change as you need it.
Select desired estimation settings.
Run the parameter estimation.
Following the parameter estimation you can perform a fit analysis. A good idea is to select the simplexIQM or SSmIQM (if availabe) optimization methods for that, using smaller settings for the maximum number of iterations.
Export or save the project using again the File menu.

At all times other tasks can be run from the buttons to the left. Just try them out.
