Driving Epidemic Models with AI Agents: the Epydemix Agent Framework
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.28692v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Artificial Intelligence agents based on large language models provide convenient natural language interfaces to scientific software, but reliability is not automatic. Here we introduce the Epydemix Agent Framework, an additive layer over Epydemix, an open-source Python library for stochastic compartmental epidemic modeling. The framework extends the library with four capabilities to facilitate interaction with an AI agent: discovery of available models and parameters, preventive validation of a declarative scenario specification, execution throug
