As such, the artificial neurons employed were spiking in nature; to effect an appropriate compromise between computational complexity and biological realism, modelling was at the transmembrane potential level of abstraction.
Due to the added realism these models can produce though, it should come with a nice payoff in the final images.
This means that, in spite of their claims to "realism", these models are in no way able to explain how democracies function.
The detailed integration of transport logistics hubs would lead to greater realism of models, which would enable policy decision makers to assess policy measures in a more accurate way.
The physical realism of models is tested by examining their ability to simulate contemporary or past climates.
Inclusion of the variability in development rate with respect to factors other than temperature might improve the realism of models.
In order to refine their understanding of epidemiology of infectious diseases, researchers have been introducing greater biological realism into models [ 5, 7, 63- 67].
For example, it is possible to add more realism to model the pharmacodynamics of drugs and how they kill bacteria [e.g. [ 40, 48]], and there are some studies from which the costs of antibiotic resistance can be estimated [for example, see references in [ 49]].
"Almost Human" trafficks in the realm of future realism by modeling its ideas on existing technologies.
Brian Richardson, for example, defines the term "unnatural narrative" as "one that conspicuously violates conventions of standard narrative forms, in particular the conventions of nonfictional narratives, oral or written, and fictional modes like realism that model themselves on nonfictional narratives.
Hence, the limited knowledge of the ecology of a species affects not only the realism of model simulations, but also of higher tier risk assessments or the use of field studies in risk assessment.
