Before revision:  The method is quite general and flexible, since it dos not rely on any specific property of the dynamical system, and represents a mathematical formalisation of the procedure consisting of sampling and testing parameters, in which evolutions generated by candidate parameters are tested against observed data to assess goodness-of-fit.
