We investigate the automatic differentiation of hybrid models, viz. models that may contain delays, logical tests and discontinuities or loops. We consider differentiation with respect to parameters, initial conditions or the time. We…

Given a discrete-state continuous-time reactive system, like a digital circuit, the classical approach is to first model it as a state transition system and then prove its properties. Our contribution advocates a different approach: to…
Opinion Dynamics models can be, for most of them, divided between discrete and continuous. They are used in different circumstances and the relationship between them is not clear. Here we will explore the relationship between a model where…
