"darting the antelope first and attaching a radio direction beacon"
well, If you don't want to model how much the hunter recovers during periods of relative rest ( slower-than-running-time-spent-in-tracking this would be additional resting time for the prey as well I suppose) you could do it that way.
Does anyone in HN know of what kind of mathematics would be needed to set up a simulation like this?equations for rates of exhaustion/ speed loss over time etc?
- telegraph 18y agoYou can easily model something like this with regular old ordinary differential equations in Mathematica or MATLAB. The hard part would be gathering the data to design realistic equations.
- Shamiq 18y agoRather than mathematics, you could try using a multi-agent model. Set up a set of "rules" each party follows and give it a go. NetLogo is something i've used before to do similar stuff.
