Parameter values of adipose tissue growth model.

Values given are mean±SD. aParameters related to hyperplasia. Maximum-likelihood values shown in parentheses were used as the initial cell number and the cell-number increasing rate in the model. bParameters related to hypertrophy. The values are obtained from the average result of four ensembles; each ensemble corresponding to one control mouse has a different initial cell-size distribution for the model evolution. Note that the average cost (or error) , obtained from each ensemble, is considered with its Boltzmann factor as a weight for the ensemble average.
