How to train a model to estimate the coefficients of a coupled ODE?
Consider the coupled ODE system below (Lotka-Volterra equations):
$$
\frac{dx}{dt} = \alpha x - \beta x y, \\
\frac{dy}{dt} = - \gamma y + \delta x y ,
$$
How can I train a model to estimate the ...

Is there anyway to evaluate the estimation results of least square
Consider the scenario where a practical problem is tackled utilizing the method of least squares. Upon each iteration, an estimation of the parameter $\theta$ is derived via $\hat{\theta} = (X^\top X)^...
