Numerical Methods for Smooth Solutions of Ordinary Differential Equations

Abstract

dc:description

In parameter estimation, the coefficient parameters of a system of differential equations are often determined by error norm minimization. Minimization codes may require that partial derivatives with respect to parameters be evaluated. If the derivatives are obtained by differencing the numerical solution of the differential equations, the smoothness of that solution with respect to parameter changes is crucial to the performance of minimization codes.
