Doubt: Activity Driven Model #53

Closed User-DK closed 2 months ago

User-DK commented 2 months ago

I had a doubt that whether opinion can lie beyond the [-1,1] range because for activity driven model it does happens with this conf file https://github.com/seldon-code/seldon/blob/main/test/res/10_agents_meanfield_activity.toml

Please if you can run the simulation and check it from the opinion output file.

if its correct then again a thought arises that this test case is passing as okay how ?? https://github.com/seldon-code/seldon/blob/3ba2520cc30e552b8b261a1103a0978a24588d0c/test/test_activity.cpp#L204-L207

Hi @User-DK, the opinions in the activity driven model can indeed lie outside the interval [-1.0,1.0]. Initializing them inside this interval is just a useful convention. So I think the the test should be fine
