Repro-Modeling Applied to the Simplification of TARADCOM Computer Models

Abstract

As mathematical models become large and complex, they become more difficult to apply and understand. Repro-modeling is a technique for constructing an efficient input/output approximation to a complex model. The technique is founded upon an economical representation for continuous piecewise linear functions of many input variables. Repro-modeling as described here is the fitting of input/output data by a continuous piecewise linear function. A software package called COMPLIAR which accomplishes this is described, and the theory underlying its use is explained. Instructions for the use of the software and examples are included.
