Documentation for each param in vpatient_params.csv #27

Open PorkShoulderHolder opened 3 years ago

PorkShoulderHolder commented 3 years ago

Not sure how to interpret each parameter in the vpatient_params.csv file.

Ideally there would be a document which provides a sentence description for each one.

Thanks.

On the same topic, I was wondering if you could cite a source for the parameter values. As far as I am aware, these paramter values are only available in the context of the commercially available software package of The Epsilon Group.

Thanks,

@manueich this may be helpful: https://github.com/jxx123/simglucose/issues/26, but I'm going to leave the issue open b/c there really should be documentation in the repo.

jdmedinatobon commented 3 years ago

I also agree there should be more documentation in the repo. I've been trying to decipher in which units each variable and parameter are. Has anyone been able to find this information? Perhaps by contacting the The Epsilon Group or similar?

Hi there! Has anyone else found information about this? I would like to try the simulator with different parameters but the naming is not clear to me in many fields. Thanks!

Hi there @aespogom

You can find information on some of the parameters in this paper. The paper does not cover the entire parameters in the simulator, and/or patient parameters, but covers the parameters for the different model compartments.

Hope it helps
