This thesis proposes a combination model of neural differential equations (NDE) and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo simulation (HMC). By utilizing time-series data obtained from the laboratory and processing it using the EnzymeML framework, this study demonstrated the combination of NDE-HMC and how it can enhance the accuracy of parameter estimation while reducing the computational demands compared to an HMC-only approach. This study employed the Catalax framework to train and validate the NDE, with the utilization of optimization algorithms such as L-BFGS and Nelder-Mead. The results show an improvement in computational efficiency and goodness of fit metrics for the NDE-HMC model compared to that of the HMC-only model. This thesis established a foundation for the utilization of machine-learning models to estimate enzyme kinetic parameters in biochemical reaction systems. ; AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Geen opsomming beskikbaar. ; Masters
