%T Use of the Response Surface Method for the Quantification of a Sexual Behavior Model
%U https://pure.iiasa.ac.at/id/eprint/4486/
%X A microsimulation model of sexual behavior is developed, which simulates individual life histories of individuals in a hypothetical community. Heterogeneity of the community is taken into account. The model has the form of a discrete event system in which changes in the characteristics of the individuals result from random events that occur at random times. The model is quantified against real world data by a response surface method.
