A validation methodology for agent-based simulations
TL;DR: A process for validating agent-based simulation models that combines face validation, sensitivity analysis, calibration and statistical validation is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating Quantile Sensitivities
TL;DR: This paper proposes an infinitesimal-perturbation-analysis (IPA) estimator and shows that the quantile sensitivities can be written in the form of conditional expectations, and obtains a consistent estimator by dividing data into batches and averaging the IPA estimates of all batches.

ONCHOSIM: a model and computer simulation program for the transmission and control of onchocerciasis.
TL;DR: ONCHOSIM is a computer program for modelling the transmission and control of the tropical parasitic disease onchocerciasis, or river blindness, and is used as a tool in the evaluation and planning of control operations.
Book ChapterDOI
Irregularity and asynchrony in biologic network signals
TL;DR: This chapter highlights the many physiological feedback and/or control systems and models for which cross-ApEn can detect significant changes in bivariate asynchrony, yet for whichCross-correlation and cross-spectral methods fail to clearly highlight markedly changing features of the data sets under consideration.

On the Asymptotic Validity of Fully Sequential Selection Procedures for Steady-State Simulation
Seong-Hee Kim,Barry L. Nelson +1 more
TL;DR: This work presents fully sequential procedures for steady-state simulation that are designed to select the best of a finite number of simulated systems when best is defined by the largest or smallest long-run average performance.
