Abstract

Differential algebra is an algebraic theory for studying systems of polynomial ordinary differential equations (ODE). Among all the methods developed for system modeling in cellular biology, it is particularly related to the well-established approach based on nonlinear ODE. A sub-theory of the differential algebra, the differential elimination, has proved to be useful in the parameters estimation problem. It seems however still more promising in the quasi-steady state approximation theory, recent results show.
