Using Observational Data to Calibrate Simulation Models.
BACKGROUND Individual-level simulation models are valuable tools for comparing the impact of clinical or public health interventions on population health and cost outcomes over time. However, a key challenge is ensuring that outcome estimates correctly reflect real-world impacts. Calibration to targets obtained from randomized trials may be insufficient if trials do not exist for populations, t...
متن کاملBuilding New Spatial Interaction Models Using Genetic Programming
Building computer models of human geographic systems is di cult because of the poverty of applicable theory that can be used to specify well formed and soundly based mathematical models. As a result there has been little progress in this area since the late 1960's when mathematical model building procedures based on entropy-maximisingmethods were rst applied to spatial interaction data. In the ...
متن کاملA simple method to calibrate hemispherical photographs
Objectives Hemispherical photography is used to characterize the structure of canopies and measure the gap fraction directional variation to retrieve variables such as the leaf area index (LAI), the fAPAR {Jonckheere, 2004 #3541};{Weiss, 2004 #2872}. Optical systems are not perfect and at least two main characteristics are required: • The coordinates of the optical centre • The projection funct...
متن کاملUsing Genetic Algorithms to Break a Simple Transposition Cipher
Genetic Algorithms are search algorithm. They use a metaphor where an optimization problem takes the place of an environment and feasible solutions are considered as individuals living in that environment. This paper focuses on using GAs to cryptanalyse a transposition cipher. A certain method is used to find the possible key length. It is shown that such algorithm could be used to discover the...
متن کاملNew Ways to Calibrate Evolutionary Algorithms
The issue of setting the values of various parameters of an evolutionary algorithm (EA) is crucial for good performance. One way to do it is controlling EA parameters on-the-fly, which can be done in various ways and for various parameters. We briefly review these options in general and present the findings of a literature search and some statistics about the most popular options. Thereafter, w...
