An Agent-Based Model of Procrastination
, 2014 Procrastination is a widespread type of self-regulation failure that can have serious negative effects on people's health (e.g., because people delay or omit important health behaviors) and well-being. New “e-coaching” technologies make it possible in principle to offer tailored support to individuals in their efforts to change ...

The Origin of Money: An Agent-Based Model [PDF]
Advances in Artificial Life, ECAL 2013, 2013 The benefits of money as a medium of exchange are obvious, but the historical origin of money is less clear. An existing economic model of monetary search is reproduced as an agentbased simulation and an evolutionary algorithm is used to model social learning.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Bottom-up ecology: an agent-based model on the interactions between competition and predation
Letters in Biomathematics, 2016 We developed an agent-based computer model of an ecosystem to predict interactions of competition and predation. In our simulations of the model, the effects of the ‘Gause law’ emerged as the results of population fluctuations and a large number of ...

Agent-based models of malaria transmission: a systematic review
Malaria Journal, 2018 Background Much of the extensive research regarding transmission of malaria is underpinned by mathematical modelling. Compartmental models, which focus on interactions and transitions between population strata, have been a mainstay of such modelling for ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

The economy needs agent-based modelling [PDF]
Nature, 2009 The leaders of the world are flying the economy by the seat of their pants, say J. Doyne Farmer and Duncan Foley. There is, however, a better way to help guide financial policies.

EAI Endorsed Transactions on Context-aware Systems and Applications, 2017 Modeling in ecology or epidemiology generally opposes two classes of models, Equation Based Models and Agent Based Models. Mathematical models allow predicting the long-term dynamics of the studied systems. However, the variability between individuals is
