AI, the SIR Model, and DE-Constrained Kernel Smoothing

We study curve-fitting problems for noisy data generated by processes governed by differential equations. By incorporating differential equation constraints into nonparametric kernel smoothing, bias can be reduced while preserving flexibility. Large Language Models are used to assist in repeated differentiation and parameter tuning. Applications include simulated stochastic SIR models and real influenza-like illness data, enabling detection of departures from classical epidemiological models.
