Specification of autocorrelating to avoid sampling at the same time

[jwang]

Hello Andrew,

Can I specify no autocorrelation to avoid sampling at the same time? According to the online guide, I tried the following script but got no success.

poped_db <- create.poped.database (strAutoCorrelationFile ="”),

I still have a lot of sampling points clustered at certain times.

Thank you,

Hi You need to specify an autocorrelation model to avoid samples at the same time.  Please see: Nyberg, J., Höglund, R., Bergstrand, M., Karlsson, M. O., & Hooker, A. C. (2012). Serial correlation in optimal design for nonlinear mixed effects models. Journal of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics, 39(3), 239–249. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10928-012-9245-5 For an explanation.

Hi Andrew,

I've read that paper and understand the general principle. However, that paper didn't provide any popED script, which could not be found in popED documentations either. Do you mind offering a sample code illustrating how to use the autocorrelation model to avoid same time sampling?

Thank you,
