Applications of Catastrophe Theory for Statistical Modeling in the Biosciences
突变理论在生物科学统计建模中的应用
Although catastrophe theory has been applied with mixed success to many problems in the biosciences, very few of these applications have used any form of statistical modeling. We present examples of the applications of statistical catastrophe theory in the analysis of experimental data. These include examples of hysteresis effects, bifurcation effects, and the full cusp catastrophe model. The methods of statistical catastrophe theory draw upon the theories of parameter…
