Performance of pseudo-likelihood estimator in modelling cells' proliferation with noisy measurements

• Branching processes are widely used to describe cell development and proliferation. Currently parameter estimation is studied in mathematical models describing the dynamics of cell cultures where we can get very accurate measurements of cell counts. In vivo samples we will not have this accuracy, here the noise levels can be very significant. We will study a newly proposed pseudo-likelihood estimator of a multitype Bellman-Harris process modelling cell development and see how it performs under noisy measurements of cell counts.
