Abstract

Simulation modeling of complex systems is receiving increasing research attention over the past years. In this paper, we discuss the basic concepts involved in multi- resolution simulation modeling of complex stochastic systems. We argue that, in many cases, using the average over all available high-resolution simulation results as the input to subsequent low-resolution modules is inappropriate and may lead to erroneous final results. Instead high- resolution output data should be classified into groups that match underlying patterns or features of the system behavior before sensing group averages to the low-resolution modules. We propose high-dimensional data clustering as a key interfacing component between simulation modules with different resolutions and use unsupervised learning schemes to recover the patterns for the high-resolution simulation results. We give some examples to demonstrate our proposed scheme.
