The traditional approach is to fit these parameters using extensive numerical simulations (e.g. by the Monte-Carlo method), and eventually revising the model if the predictions do not correspond to the actual measurements. In this work we propose a methodology for hybrid automaton model revision, when new type of functions are needed to capture time varying parameters. To this end, we formulate a hybrid optimal control problem with intermediate points as successive infinite-dimensional linear programs (LP) on occupation measures. Then, these infinite-dimensional LPs are solved using a hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations. The whole procedure is exposed on a recent model for haemoglobin production in erythrocytes.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1710.03158v2","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1710.03158v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"occupation-measure-methods-for-modelling-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/biosdp/biosdp","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
