Subject
Simulating populations using AI.
Objectives
een AI simulatie maken waarin je factoren kan aanpassen en dan kijken wat er met de populatie gebeurt? Analyseren hoe betrouwbaar zo'n tool is
- Construct an AI simulation with which we can evaluate the likelihood of adverse ecological effects on populations occurring as a result of exposure to physical or chemical stressors
- Analysing the reliability of such a simulation by comparing the results to scenarios which have happened in the past.
- Analysing the possibilities and shortcomings of such a simulation.
Users
Biologists, ecologists, government organisations making wildlife plans, education

Approach
1 Create a simulated environment where AI based on neural networks can roam.
2 Edit factors such as amount of food and maximum speed of the AI to see how this influences the AI.
3 Analyze the results of step 2, iterate and try to find interesting stuff.
4 Document everything interesting
