Can system dynamics models "learn"
>From Brian Dangerfield: I think maybe this thread has got slightly warped as it has progressed. My initial understanding of it was whether SD models could learn on the fly as it were. As someone recently pointed out this can happen only if the (rate) equations are changed. [Perhaps someone with mor...
