| Title | SimBA |
| Short Description | SimBA is a non-generative approach to population simulations based on a combination of stochastic techniques and discrete methods. |
| Long Description | SimBA is a non-generative approach to population simulations, based on a combination of stochastic techniques and discrete methods. The package contains a hill climbing algorithm and multiple subpopulation structures. SimBA is very sensitive to the input specifications, i.e., very similar but distinct input characteristics result in distinct outputs with high fidelity to the specified distributions. This property of the simulation is not explicitly modeled or studied by previous methods. |
