This article proposes a dynamical system modeling approach for the analysis of longitudinal data of self-regulated systems experiencing multiple excitations. The aim of such an approach is to focus on the evolution of a signal (e.g., heart…

When a mathematical or computational model is used to analyse some system, it is usual that some parameters resp.\ functions or fields in the model are not known, and hence uncertain. These parametric quantities are then identified by…
