- We will also identify and mitigate non identifiability to direct surveillance or model design to avoid the situation that a bifurcation parameter of importance for scenario analyses cannot be reliably estimated using current surveillances and models. Efficient software codes for model fitting with data that ensure convergence in the presence of non identifiability will also be developed.
