Abstract
In this note we present a critical review of the some of the positive features as well as some of the shortcomings of the generalized sensitivity functions (GSF) of Thomaseth–Cobelli in comparison to traditional sensitivity functions (TSF). We do this from a computational perspective of ordinary least squares estimation or inverse problems using two illustrative examples: the Verhulst–Pearl logistic growth model and a recently developed agricultural production network model. Because GSF provide information on the relevance of data measurements for the identification of certain parameters in a typical parameter estimation problems, we argue that they provide the basis for new tools for investigators in design of inverse problem studies.
