Description

In this note we explain the use of the Akiake Information Criterion and its related model comparison indices (usually derived for maximum likelihood estimator inverse problem formulations) in the context of least squares (ordinary, weighted, iterative weighted or “generalized”, etc.) based inverse problem formulations. The ideas are illustrated with several examples of interest in biology.
