Exact Gradients Improve Parameter Estimation in Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models with Stochastic Dynamics

• Nonlinear mixed effects (NLME) models based on stochastic differential equations (SDEs) have evolved into a mature approach for analysis of PKPD data [1-3], but parameter estimation remains challenging. We present an exact-gradient version of the first order conditional estimation (FOCE) method for SDE-NLME models, and investigate whether it enables faster estimation and better gradient precision/accuracy compared to finite difference gradients.
