Learning in Agent-based Models [PDF]
Eastern Economic Journal, 2010 In basic economic theory agents are supposed to optimize, given their constraints.This, in situations where they are anonymous, isolated and have no influence overthe constraints with which they are faced. Any intelligent student, coming toeconomics for the first time, finds this unrealistic and several intensive courses,particularly in micro-economics,

Agent-Based Pedestrian Modeling [PDF]
Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 2001 When the focus of interest in geographical systems is at the very fine scale, at the level of streets and buildings for example, movement becomes central to simulations of how spatial activities are used and develop. Recent advances in computing power and the acquisition of fine scale digital data now mean that we are able to attempt to understand ...

Asymptomatic Transmission and the Dynamics of Zika Infection
Scientific Reports, 2017 Following the 2013–14 outbreak in French Polynesia, the Zika virus (ZIKV) epidemic spread widely to many countries where Aedes Aegypti as the main transmitting vector is endemic.

Institutional modelling: Adding social backbone to agent-based models
MethodsX, 2022 Institutional modelling is a branch of agent-based modelling and simulation (ABMS) that pays special attention to the social structure by incorporating institutions into these models.

An Agent-Based Model of Burglary
Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 2009 Occurrences of crime are complex phenomena. They are the result of a large number of interrelated elements which can include environmental factors as well as complex human behaviours. Traditionally, crime occurrences have been modelled using statistical techniques, and although such approaches are useful, they face difficulties in providing predictive

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 ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

The Practice of Agent-Based Model Visualization [PDF]
Artificial Life, 2014 We discuss approaches to agent-based model visualization. Agent-based modeling has its own requirements for visualization, some shared with other forms of simulation software, and some unique to this approach. In particular, agent-based models are typified by complexity, dynamism, nonequilibrium and transient behavior, heterogeneity, and a researcher's
