Abstract
We present a parameter estimation method, based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) and embedding the tauleaping algorithm, for the efficient estimation of reaction constants in stochastic models of biological systems, using as target a set of discrete-time measurements of molecular amounts sampled in different experimental conditions. To account for the multiplicity of data, we consider a multiswarm formulation of PSO. The whole method is developed for GPGPU architecture to reduce the computational costs.
