mudeldatud

Mudeldatud is the Estonian term for "modeled" or "shaped according to a model." It is the past passive participle of mudeldama, a verb meaning to model, to design, or to simulate. The word describes something that has been created, described, or predicted using a model, plan, or prototype.

In usage, mudeldatud typically precedes the noun it describes: mudeldatud andmed (modeled data), mudeldatud süsteem (modeled system), mudeldatud pilt (rendered image). It can also function predicatively: Andmed on mudeldatud.

Contexts: Common in scientific and technical writing, especially in statistics, computer modelling, engineering, architecture, and digital media. It enables clear distinction between observed or real phenomena and those produced by a model.

Etymology and form: The form is built from mudel (model) with the participial suffix -datud, yielding mudeldatud as "modeled." The word is widely used in Estonian-language texts, and is appropriate for both technical and popular explanations of modeling or simulation.
