ADMB (AD Model Builder) is a software suite designed for the development of statistical models using automatic differentiation. It facilitates the creation of complex, non-linear models and is commonly used in fields such as fisheries stock assessment, ecology, and other areas requiring advanced statistical analysis.
About Admb
ADMB was created in the early 1990s to address the need for advanced statistical modeling in ecological and fisheries research. It provided researchers with tools to develop complex, non-linear models using automatic differentiation, significantly improving the accuracy and efficiency of their analyses.
Strengths of ADMB included its ability to handle complex, non-linear models and its use of automatic differentiation for precise parameter estimation. Weaknesses involved a steep learning curve and limited community support compared to more mainstream tools. Competitors included software like R, especially packages such as TMB (Template Model Builder), and other statistical modeling tools like WinBUGS and JAGS.
