I do not think this is an error to code W = THETA(1) * IPRED + THETA(2).
This does not correspond to the variance of

but this is just a different dependence of variance
VAR2=(THETA(1)*IPRED+THETA(2))^2 = VAR1+2*THETA(1)*IPRED*THETA(2)

I think this is overkill to have 10 occasions, and this could be a
problem. Try to start first with 2 occasions (e.g, first 5 doses and the
rest). If this works it means that it is just a numerical problem.
Also, just to check, try
Y=LOG(F+0.0001)+EPS_EXP
to remove the possibility of F=0.

Hi Bill,
I do not think this is possible, but you are making things more
complicated than needed. You can slice the data set as needed using
IGNORE/ACCEPT options. For analytical ADVAN models, you often do not
need CMT item, and if needed, you can introduce extra columns CMT1,
CMT2, CMT3, and
One option is to run all analyses in analytical ADVANs and then re-run
the final model in differential equations. If the results are close, it
could be used as a justification of the final model. If not,
differential equations solution should be preferred, I guess. In our
experience, analytical

It will be presented on the West Coast, at San Francisco Airport

from the manual:
"When the IGNORE option is used to filter records from the input file,
the .EQ., =, .NE., and /= symbols perform literal string comparisons. To
provide a numerical equality comparison, use .EQN. for numerical equals,
and .NEN. for numerical not equals."
May be there is a spa
Dear All,
Could you share if you have any experience with Intel AVX (Advanced
Vector Extensions) and AVX2 set of instructions for Intel compiler on
recent processors: does it work with Nonmem, does it allow to speed up
the fitting, and by how much. Compiler versions/options and processor

CMT is important for dosing: it directs the dose to the appropriate
compartment (equation number).
It is a common misconception that CMT has to be related to observations.
It is relevant for observations only if F notation is used (and
therefore it is better to avoid using this notation).
Fo
One simple option is to stack simulation data files together, with
EVID=4 for the first (or the only) dose of the second file.

I think it would help if you provide the code and the reference and the
sample data set: some published papers contain typos, so it is hard to
give a general advice based on limited information
Thanks

Abdullah,
Do you have random effect on the lag time? Models with random effects on
the lag time are very difficult to work with, try to remove the lag and
use the transit compartment(s) to describe the delay. Make sure you have
INTERACTION option on the estimation step, use METHOD=1. Sometimes
not solve the issue. We will further evaluate if the
information from all nodes is used for the population update.
Any further hints are highly welcome
Best
Dirk
