Agent-based models for community care systems analysis and design [PDF]
, 2006 In recent years, the providers of public and private sector health care services have been faced with some radical changes in the society they serve, and more importantly, development in the way that traditional health care is delivered to Information ...

Dynamic calibration of agent-based models using data assimilation [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 A widespread approach to investigating the dynamical behaviour of complex social systems is via agent-based models (ABMs). In this paper, we describe how such models can be dynamically calibrated using the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF), a standard method

Agent-Based Models as “Interested Amateurs”
Land, 2015 This paper proposes the use of agent-based models (ABMs) as “interested amateurs” in policy making, and uses the example of the SWAP model of soil and water conservation adoption to demonstrate the potential of this approach.

Symmetry-based reciprocity: evolutionary constraints on a proximate mechanism [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Background. While the evolution of reciprocal cooperation has attracted an enormous attention, the proximate mechanisms underlying the ability of animals to cooperate reciprocally are comparatively neglected.

The dual problems of coordination and anti-coordination on random bipartite graphs
New Journal of Physics, 2021 In some scenarios (‘anti-coordination games’), individuals are better off choosing different actions than their neighbors while in other scenarios (‘coordination games’), it is beneficial for individuals to choose the same strategy as their neighbors ...

Moneta e Credito, 2019 La Grande Recessione è stata un esperimento naturale per la macroeconomica, mostrando l’inadeguatezza della teoria dominante basata sui modelli DSGE. La macroeconomia dovrebbe considerare l’economia come un sistema complesso in evoluzione, cioè come un ...

Methods in Ecology and EvolutionSpecies distribution models (SDMs) have been widely used in ecology to understand how species relate to environmental variation. Most SDMs are correlative, and they lack explicit reference to the underlying processes, and therefore, the reliability of ...

Finite Symmetries in Agent-Based Epidemic Models
Mathematical and Computational Applications, 2019 Predictive analysis of epidemics often depends on the initial conditions of the outbreak, the structure of the afflicted population, and population size. However, disease outbreaks are subjected to fluctuations that may shape the spreading process. Agent-

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...
