Result 1991-1992 epidemic 3 SIR model Baseline Same Alpha BFGS (neg fast C code)

For the guess of parameters beta1 = 2.3 alpha1 = 2.2 Ne = 4275.722 I1 = 1 beta2 = 2.3 I2 = 1 beta3 = 2.3 I3 = 1, we obtained

beta1 = 1.129149e+01 alpha1 = 1.086239e+01 Ne = 4.276004e+03 I1 = 4.108273e-03 beta2 = 1.164320e+01 I2 = 3.634489e-03 beta3 = 1.111417e+01 I3 = 1.002055e+00

So, this implies that f = 4.276004e+03/28301730 = 0.0001510863

The MLE was -82.09

Weston: This CI contains a NA value.
