Applying spartan to Understand Parameter Uncertainty in Simulations
In attempts to further understand the dynamics of complex systems, the application of computer simulation is becoming increasingly prevalent. Whereas a great deal of focus has been placed in the development of software tools that aid researchers develop simulations, similar focus has not been applied in the creation of tools that perform a rigorous statistical analysis of results generated thro...
متن کاملEasing Parameter Sensitivity Analysis of Netlogo Simulations using SPARTAN
In attempts to further understand complex systems at an individual level, the application of agent-based modeling is becoming prevalent across a range of academic disciplines. With the advantages of being multi-platform, requiring little programming experience, and supported by a large number of freely available case study examples, Netlogo has become a popular choice as the software tool to ap...
متن کاملREDUCING INPUT PARAMETER UNCERTAINTY FOR SIMULATIONS Szu
Parameters of statistical distributions that are input to simulations are typically not known with certainty. For existing systems, or variations on existing systems, they are often estimated from field data. Even if the mean of simulation output were estimable exactly as a function of input parameters, there may still be uncertainty about the output mean because inputs are not known precisely....
متن کاملSpartan: A Comprehensive Tool for Understanding Uncertainty in Simulations of Biological Systems
Integrating computer simulation with conventional wet-lab research has proven to have much potential in furthering the understanding of biological systems. Success requires the relationship between simulation and the real-world system to be established: substantial aspects of the biological system are typically unknown, and the abstract nature of simulation can complicate interpretation of in s...
متن کاملTechniques to Understand Computer Simulations
The aim of this paper is to assist researchers in understanding the dynamics of simulation models that have been implemented and can be run in a computer, i.e. computer models. To do that, we start by explaining (a) that computer models are just input-output functions, (b) that every computer model can be re-implemented in many different formalisms (in particular in most programming languages),...
