In recent years, the use of the Bayesian paradigm for estimating the optimal experimental design has increased. However, standard techniques are computationally intensive for even relatively small stochastic kinetic models. One solution to this problem is to couple cloud computing with a model emulator. By running simulations simultaneously in the cloud, the large design space can be explored. A Gaussian process is then fitted to this output, enabling the optimal design parameters to be estimated. ]]>

Poster for Information, probability and inference in systems biology (IPISB 2013) /slideshow/poster-24425940/24425940 poster-130719100731-phpapp02
Interest lies in inference for the rate parameters in a complex stochastic biological model describing the aggregation of proteins within human cells. Protein aggregation is a factor in many age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Ideally time-course measurements on all chemical species in the model would be available. However, current experimental techniques only allow noisy observations on the proportions of cell death at a few time points. Although the model has a large state space and is analytically intractable, realisations from the model can be obtained using a stochastic simulator. The time evolution of a cell can be repeatedly simulated giving an estimate of the proportion of cell death. Unfortunately, simulation from the model is too slow to be used in an MCMC inference scheme. A Gaussian process emulator, which is very fast, can be used to approximate the simulator. An MCMC scheme can be constructed targeting the posterior distribution of interest, however evaluating the marginal likelihood is challenging. A pseudo-marginal approach replaces the marginal likelihood with an easy to construct unbiased estimate while still targeting the true posterior. The methods will be illustrated using a toy birth-death model, allowing comparison with the exact model.]]>

Reference classes: a case study with the poweRlaw package /slideshow/user2013/24259763 user2013-130715130620-phpapp01
Power-law distributions have been used extensively to characterise many disparate scenarios, inter alia, the sizes of moon craters and annual incomes. Recently power-laws have even been used to characterize terrorist attacks and interstate wars. However, for every correct characterisation that a particular process obeys a power-law, there are many systems that have been incorrectly labelled as being scale-free. Part of the reason for incorrectly categorising systems with power-law properties is the lack of easy to use software. The poweRlaw package aims to tackles this problem by allowing multiple heavy tail distributions, to be fitted within a standard framework. Within this package, different distributions are represented using reference classes. This enables a consistent interface to be constructed for plotting and parameter inference. This talk will describe the advantages (and disadvantages) of using reference classes. In particular, how reference classes can be leveraged to allow fast, efficient computation via parameter caching. The talk will also touch upon potential difficulties such as combining reference classes with parallel computation.]]>
