A question about handling large-scale data

From: Liu Dongyang Date: November 20, 2014 technical Source: mail-archive.com
Hello All Nonmem Users, I am modeling intra-gastric H+ concentrations as PD biomarker, which varies from 10e-7 to 10e-1. I log-transformed original data and used "Y = LOG(IPRED)+EPS(1)" as log-linear error model firstly. The profile could be simulated well, but when I fitted data, error messages as "rounding error ." or "numerical difficulty ." showed up. Fitting was terminated generally. Will anybody share their experiences or tips on this kind of data? MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE!
