  • Publication number: 20150339415
    Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods transform descriptive causal models into digital computer simulation models based on information obtained from crowdsourcing. This may include interviewing experts to collect descriptive information that is used to assemble causal descriptive models, which can be represented as graphs of nodes connected by edges. Node values may represent concepts and edge weights represent their causal relationships. Crowdsourcing is used to collect feedback about the causal descriptive models. The feedback is used to calculate edge weights that are incorporated into causal simulation models for use during model processing runs. A digital computer simulation is completed when node values reach steady states after model processing runs. A computer visualization tool can then be used to analyze outcome spaces produced by digital computer simulations.
