HITL models may conform to human factors requirements as in the case of a mockup.\"\n\n\"In this type of simulation a human is always part of the simulation and consequently influences the outcome in such a way that is difficult if not impossible to reproduce exactly. HITL also readily allows for the identification of problems and requirements that may not be easily identified by other means of simulation.\"\n\n\"HITL is often referred to as interactive simulation, which is a special kind of physical simulation in which physical simulations include human operators, such as in a flight or a driving simulator.\"\n\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human-in-the-loop\n\n#Herbarium 2022 Kaggle Competition.
