Analysis via Mechanistic Models
The purpose of time series analysis via mechanistic models is to reconcile the known or hypothesized structure of a dynamical system with observations collected over time. We develop a framework for constructing nonlinear mechanistic models and carrying out inference. Our framework permits the consideration of implicit dynamic models, meaning statistical models for stochastic dynamical systems ...
متن کاملModels and Mechanistic Insight
" The mission of the Journal of General Physiology is to publish original work of the highest quality that elucidates basic biological, chemical, or physical mechanisms of broad physiological signifi cance. This expectation — that the articles provide mechanistic insight — has served the Journal well; it also has been cause for much uncertainty , mostly pertaining to what actually constitutes m...
متن کاملWhen mechanistic models explain
Not all models are explanatory. Some models are data summaries. Some models sketch explanations but leave crucial details unspecified or hidden behind filler terms. Some models are used to conjecture a how-possibly explanation without regard to whether it is a how-actually explanation. I use the Hodgkin and Huxley model of the action potential to illustrate these ways thatmodels can be useful w...
متن کاملDynamical Models and Mechanistic Explanations
Philosophers of science increasingly believe that cognitive phenomena are explained by describing the mechanisms that produce those phenomena, rather than by subsuming them under laws. With respect to the increasingly influential dynamical approach to cognition, however, it has been claimed that only certain kinds of dynamical models (in particular, connectionist dynamical models) satisfy the r...
متن کاملMechanistic and Correlative Models of Ecological Niches
2 Department of Integrative Biology, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma 74078 USA The suite of factors that drives where and under what conditions a species occurs has become the focus of intense research interest. Three general categories of methods have emerged by which researchers address questions in this area: mechanistic models of species’ requirements in terms of environment...
