1.1 Summary

In ODE-based modeling in the systems biology field, often only relative data is available whose measurement errors are not unknown. A common approach to deal with this setting is the introduction of scaling and noise parameters, see Lessons Learned from Quantitative Dynamical Modeling in Systems Biology. Since introducing additional parameters can decrease the performance of the parameter optimization algorithm, this paper introduced an hierarchical approach to separate the fitting of the *nuisance* from the *dynamic* parameters in every step. This was compared to the standard approach of fitting all parameters simultaneously in terms of optimizer convergence and computational efficiency for 3 systems biology models.

1.2 Study outcomes

In order to generate the outcomes of the study, the MATLAB toolbox PESTO was used. In this framework, multi-start local optimization using the function fmincon.m was employed.

1.2.1 Best Fit

Standard and hierarchical multi-start optimization both find the same globally optimal objective function for both proposed error models (Gaussian and Laplace noise) except for one model with Laplace noise, where both approaches did not produce the same model trajectories.

1.2.2 Convergence of optimizer

The hierarchical optimization improved the number of converged local fits from 18.4% to 29.3%, presented in Fig. 4C
