Abstract

This study introduces an adaptive causal network model of the effects of treatment on drug consumption in the case of addiction. Different factors are included that have been found to affect drug consumption and are impacted by addiction treatments. To prove the validity of the model, a number of example scenarios are presented that simulate treatments of different lengths and comprehensiveness. In addition, validation was supported by parameter tuning, and verification was performed by mathematically verifying stationary points for simulations of the model.
