Popis: The immune system is modeled by way of a system of ordinary differential equations involving a large number of parameters, such as growth rates and initial conditions. Key to successful implementation of the model is the estimation of such parameters from available data. A parameter search algorithm based on linear codes is developed having as aim the identification of different regimes of behaviour of the model, the estimation of parameters in a high dimensional space, and the model calibration to data.
