Construction of a surrogate model that can accurately approximate the quantity of interest with fewer parameters may enable us to fit this alternate model to the data in place of the original ODE system. In this investigation, we consider how active subspaces may be used to construct time-dependent surrogate models with reduced parameter dimension, and analyze the trade-offs in parameter identifiability, model fit error, and computational run-time to provide a roadmap for ensuring an identifiable parameter set during model calibration.</p&gt;}, journal={The PUMP Journal of Undergraduate Research}, author={Vu, Phuong Nam and Lewis, Allison}, year={2023}, month={Jan.}, pages={1-28} }
