\page bdt_scenarios Use Case #1: Basic Scenarios of BDMToolbox

A typical scenario may look like:
\dot
digraph estimation{
        node [shape=box];
        {rank="same"; "Data Source"; "Bayesian Model"}
        "Data Source" -> "Bayesian Model" [label="data"];
        "Bayesian Model" -> "Result Logger" [label="estimation\n result"];
        "Data Source" -> "Result Logger" [label="Simulated\n data"];
}
\enddot
Where active objects are:
 -# Data Sources (bdm::DS), providing access to various form of recursive data
 -# Bayesian estimators (bdm::BM), providing various exact and approximate algorithms for Bayesian inference
 -# Controllers (bdm::Controller), generating control strategies, both feedback, or feedforward
 -# Loggers (bdm::logger), for storing results of experiments

These objects operate on data vectors, functions and probability densities:
 -# random variable (bdm::RV) is a name of a variable, used as named connectors in the scenarios, 
 -# probability density functions, (bdm::pdf), both conditional and unconditional,
 -# functions, (bdm::fnc), of vector arguments,

These classes act as "LEGO-like" bricks which can be composed a wide range of arrangements.

Predefined scenarios implemented in mex are:
 - Simulation, see \ref simulator.cpp
 - Estimation, see \ref estimator.cpp
 - Controll Loop, see \ref controlloop.cpp
 - Multiple-Participant Decision-Making, see \ref arena.cpp
