The hyperbolastic functions, also known as hyperbolastic growth models, are mathematical functions that are used in medical statistical modeling. These models were originally developed to capture the growth dynamics of multicellular tumor spheres, and were introduced in 2005 by Mohammad Tabatabai, David Williams, and Zoran Bursac.[1] The precision of hyperbolastic functions in modeling real world problems is somewhat due to their flexibility in their point of inflection.[1][2] These functions can be used in a wide variety of modeling problems such as tumor growth, stem cell proliferation, pharma kinetics, cancer growth, sigmoid activation function in neural networks, and epidemiological disease progression or regression.[1][3][4]

The hyperbolastic functions can model both growth and decay curves until it reaches carrying capacity. Due to their flexibility, these models have diverse applications in the medical field, with the ability to capture disease progression with an intervening treatment. As the figures indicate, hyperbolastic functions can fit a sigmoidal curve indicating that the slowest rate occurs at the early and late stages. [5] In addition to the presenting sigmoidal shapes, it can also accommodate biphasic situations where medical interventions slow or reverse disease progression; but, when the effect of the treatment vanishes, the disease will begin the second phase of its progression until it reaches its horizontal asymptote.

One of the main characteristics these functions have is that they cannot only fit sigmoidal shapes, but can also model biphasic growth patterns that other classical sigmoidal curves cannot adequately model. This distinguishing feature has advantageous applications in various fields including medicine, biology, economics, engineering, agronomy, and computer aided system theory.[6][7][8][9][10]

Function H1

[edit]

The hyperbolastic rate equation of type I, denoted H1, is given by

where is any real number and is the population size at . The parameter represents carrying capacity, and parameters and jointly represent growth rate. The parameter gives the distance from a symmetric sigmoidal curve. Solving the hyperbolastic rate equation of type I for gives

where is the inverse hyperbolic sine function. If one desires to use the initial condition , then can be expressed as

.

If , then reduces to

.

In the event that a vertical shift is needed to give a better model fit, one can add the shift parameter , which would result in the following formula

.

The hyperbolastic function of type I generalizes the logistic function. If the parameters , then it would become a logistic function. This function is a hyperbolastic function of type I. The standard hyperbolastic function of type I is

.

Function H2

[edit]

The hyperbolastic rate equation of type II, denoted by H2, is defined as

where is the hyperbolic tangent function, is the carrying capacity, and both and jointly determine the growth rate. In addition, the parameter represents acceleration in the time course. Solving the hyperbolastic rate function of type II for gives

.

If one desires to use initial condition then can be expressed as

Similarly, in the event that a vertical shift is needed to give a better fit, one can use the following formula

Function H3

[edit]

The hyperbolastic rate equation of type III is denoted by H3 and has the form

,

where > 0. The parameter represents the carrying capacity, and the parameters and jointly determine the growth rate. The parameter represents acceleration of the time scale, while the size of represents distance from a symmetric sigmoidal curve. The solution to the differential equation of type III is

,

.

The hyperbolastic distribution of type III is a three-parameter family of continuous probability distributions with scale parameters > 0, and ≥ 0 and parameter as the shape parameter. When the parameter = 0, the hyperbolastic distribution of type III is reduced to the weibull distribution.[11] The hyperbolastic cumulative distribution function of type III is given by

for , where . For instance, the half point can be found by setting .

Applications

According to stem cell researchers at McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh, "a newer model [called the hyperbolastic type III or] H3 is a differential equation that also describes the cell growth. This model allows for much more variation and has been proven to better predict growth."[12]

The hyperbolastic growth models H1, H2, and H3 have been applied to analyze the growth of solid Ehrlich carcinoma using a variety of treatments.[13]

In animal science,[14] the hyperbolastic functions have been used for modeling broiler chicken growth.[15][16] The hyperbolastic model of type III was used to determine the size of the recovering wound.[17]

In the area of wound healing, the hyperbolastic models accurately representing the time course of healing. Such functions have been used to investigate variations in the healing velocity among different kinds of wounds and at different stages in the healing process taking into consideration the areas of trace elements, growth factors, diabetic wounds, and nutrition.[18][19]

Another application of hyperbolastic functions is in the area of the stochastic diffusion process,[20] whose mean function is a hyperbolastic curve. The main characteristics of the process are studied and the maximum likelihood estimation for the parameters of the process is considered.[21] To this end, the firefly metaheuristic optimization algorithm is applied after bounding the parametric space by a stage wise procedure. Some examples based on simulated sample paths and real data illustrate this development. A sample path of a diffusion process models the trajectory of a particle embedded in a flowing fluid and subjected to random displacements due to collisions with other particles, which is called Brownian motion.[22][23][24][25][26] The hyperbolastic function of type III was used to model the proliferation of both adult mesenchymal and embryonic stem cells;[27][28][29][30] and, the hyperbolastic mixed model of type II has been used in modeling cervical cancer data.[31] Hyperbolastic curves can be an important tool in analyzing cellular growth, the fitting of biological curves, the growth of phytoplankton, and instantaneous maturity rate.[32][33][34][35]

In forest ecology and management, the hyperbolastic models have been applied to model the relationship between DBH and height.[36]

The multivariable hyperbolastic model type III has been used to analyze the growth dynamics of phytoplankton taking into consideration the concentration of nutrients.[37]

Hyperbolastic regressions are statistical models that utilize standard hyperbolastic functions to model a dichotomous or multinomial outcome variable. The purpose of hyperbolastic regression is to predict an outcome using a set of explanatory (independent) variables. These types of regressions are routinely used in many areas including medical, public health, dental, biomedical, as well as social, behavioral, and engineering sciences. For instance, binary regression analysis has been used to predict endoscopic lesions in iron deficiency anemia.[38] In addition, binary regression was applied to differentiate between malignant and benign adnexal mass prior to surgery.[39]
