Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Recurrent neural network (RNN) has been demonstrated as a powerful tool for analyzing various types of time series data. There is limited knowledge about the application of the RNN model in the area of pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) analysis. In this paper, a specific variation of RNN, long short-term memory (LSTM) network, is presented to analyze the simulated PK/PD data of a hypothetical drug.
