Interacting Learning Agents

Описание:
Individuals’ decisions in social systems are frequently influenced by the behavior or choices of others. These social effects may lead to multiple collective states, bringing up coordination problems. The outcome cannot be predicted a priori even in small systems. Depending on the intensity of interactions and the individuals’ learning capacities, non-optimal states may emerge, due to coordination failures. Understanding the emergence of collective states, which comes from the individual behavior of a large number of interacting individuals, is essential for the comprehension of social and industrialorganizations. Here we present a study of such collective phenomena using methods of statistical physics and numerical simulations. We explore how the heterogeneity of the individuals, their interactions and learning capacities influence the system’s behavior. Equilibrium properties and dynamicsobtained with various learning scenarios are thoroughly analyzed. Furthermore, interesting...Похожие книги
