inverse gaussian input function
Dear NMUsers,
I need new pairs of eyes to look at the small problem I'm facing. The
solution is probably right before my nose but I can't seem to get a hold
of it.
Let me explain briefly, I wrote two small test control files (pasted
below), one for a weibull input function (inspired from
http://www.cognigencorp.com/nonmem/current/2010-April/2476.html) and the
other for an inverse gaussian input function. Note that In the $DES,
block I only put the weibull or inverse gaussian and no clearance
related parameters so I should end up with a cumulative distribution of
the input function. The thing is this, it works just fine for the
weibull with the function cumulating to one but I cannot seem to get it
to work for the inverse gaussian. The shape of the inverse gaussian
cumulative distribution is OK, it's the scale that's the problem, the
cumulated input does not add up to one but to much less (to
0.397,actually). I figured it's probably just an error in my coding of
the inverse gaussian pdf but having scrutinized it so much I just don't
see it anymore.
Below are my two control streams. If you build a dataset to run with
the code be sure to put a lot of timepoints between 0 and 1 because the
MAT parameter of the inverse gaussian is small (immediate release
formulation).
Thanks for your help :o)
