Abstract:

Building large biological models is a difficult task, often attained by
iteratively adding details to an initial abstraction of the modeled process. Refitting
the model at every step of the development is computationally intensive.
Fit-preserving data refinement offers an efficient alternative by providing adequate
parameter values that preserve the fit from the previous step. We focus here
on the implementation of fit-preserving data refinement of a model of the ErbB
signalling pathway, which is extended to include details regarding the types of
ligands and receptors involved. We obtained an extensive model ensuring a good
fit by construction, with significantly less effort than any parameter estimation
routine would require.
