Abstract
Models are often built to answer “WHAT–IF” questions with less cost, time, and efforts compared to the physical implementation of real changes or construction of real objects. For example, “Will the traffic density on the road will likely decrease by about 25% IF we add a second lane?”. To verify the hypothesis, we do not construct a lane which is costly, time-consuming, and may not decrease the traffic density at all. Mathematical and Simulation Modeling is vital for computer science, biology, epidemiology, business, technology, network theory, economics and social sciences, management of resources, self-driving cars, physics, chemistry, Earth science and is also used in music, linguistics, and psychology to name a few. Mathematical and Simulation Modeling covers agent-based modeling, cellular automata, computer simulation and includes model training, tuning, and evaluation. Mathematical and Simulation Modeling combines methods from statistics, machine learning, probability theory, automata theory, optimization, decision making theory, game theory as well as a broad range of other mathematical and computational disciplines.
