The phrase "a problem analogous to" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when drawing a comparison between two problems that share similar characteristics or underlying principles.
Example: "The researchers faced a problem analogous to the one encountered in previous studies, which helped them devise a solution."
Alternatives: "a problem similar to" or "a problem comparable to".
"We challenged the artificial system to solve a problem analogous to the one given to the monkeys," Sussillo explained.
The present paper is concerned with the two-dimensional collapse of piles of granular materials, a problem analogous to the classical dam break problem in hydraulics.
Still, Locke's definition of knowledge raises in this domain a problem analogous to those we have seen with perception and language.
In fact, bees solved a problem analogous to the Traveling Salesman Problem: finding the shortest route to visit a set of locations once before returning to the origin.
Firstly, the total sum of disease risk attributed to common variants detected by genome-wide association studies (GWASs) remains modest, raising a problem analogous to the astrophysicists' search for 'dark matter'.
As one possible explanation, we consider the mapping of transcription factors to binding sequences as a coding problem, analogous to the assignment of amino acids to codons in the genetic code.
Each of these two displacement vector fields satisfies an eigenvalue problem analogous to that of transverse vibrations of a linear elastic membrane.
The potentials of these two displacement vector fields satisfy an eigenvalue problem analogous to that of transverse vibrations of a linear elastic membrane.
This paper describes a default reasoning problem, analogous to the frame problem, that arises when an attempt is made to construct a logic-based calculus for reasoning about the movement of objects in a real-valued co-ordinate system.
I argue that we are, today, in a position to assess only the third charge, and thus to assess whether inflation faces a fine-tuning problem analogous to the one it was designed to solve.
Politically, this is an extremely hard problem, analogous to the problem of developing a trusted online voting system.
