Humans make best use of social heuristics when confronting hard problems in large groups
Federica Stefanelli, Enrico Imbimbo, Daniele Vilone +3
We report the results of a game-theoretic experiment with human players who solve the problems of increasing complexity by cooperating in groups of increasing size. Our experimenta…
Modeling crowdsourcing as collective problem solving
Andrea Guazzini, Daniele Vilone, Camillo Donati +2
Crowdsourcing is a process of accumulating the ideas, thoughts or information from many independent participants, with aim to find the best solution for a given challenge. Modern i…
Application of a cognitive-inspired algorithm for detecting communities in mobility networks
Emanuele Massaro, Lorenzo Valerio, Andrea Guazzini +2
The emergence and the global adaptation of mobile devices has influenced human interactions at the individual, community, and social levels leading to the so called Cyber-Physical…
Modeling Risk Perception in Networks with Community Structure
Franco Bagnoli, Daniel Borkmann, Andrea Guazzini +2
We study the influence of global, local and community-level risk perception on the extinction probability of a disease in several models of social networks. In particular, we study…
A cognitive-inspired model for self-organizing networks
Daniel Borkmann, Andrea Guazzini, Emanuele Massaro +1
In this work we propose a computational scheme inspired by the workings of human cognition. We embed some fundamental aspects of the human cognitive system into this scheme in orde…
Cognitive network structure: an experimental study
Andrea Guazzini, Daniele Vilone, Franco Bagnoli +2
In this paper we present first experimental results about a small group of people exchanging private and public messages in a virtual community. Our goal is the study of the cognit…
Information dynamics algorithm for detecting communities in networks
E. Massaro, A. Guazzini, F. Bagnoli +1
The problem of community detection is relevant in many scientific disciplines, from social science to statistical physics. Given the impact of community detection in many areas, su…
The emergence of bluff in poker-like games
Andrea Guazzini, Daniele Vilone
We present a couple of adaptive learning models of poker-like games, by means of which we show how bluffing strategies emerge very naturally, and can also be rational and evolutive…
Social Aggregation as a Cooperative Game
Daniele Vilone, Andrea Guazzini
A new approach for the description of phenomena of social aggregation is suggested. On the basis of psychological concepts (as for instance social norms and cultural coordinates),…
Meet, Discuss and Trust each other: large versus small groups
Timoteo Carletti, Duccio Fanelli, Alessio Guarino +1
In this paper we propose a dynamical interpretation of the sociological distinction between large and small groups of interacting individuals. In the former case individual behavio…
Birth and Death in a Continuous Opinion Dynamics Model. The consensus case
Timoteo Carletti, Duccio Fanelli, Alessio Guarino +2
We here discuss the process of opinion formation in an open community where agents are made to interact and consequently update their beliefs. New actors (birth) are assumed to rep…
Opinion Dynamics in an Open Community
Timoteo Carletti, Duccio Fanelli, Alessio Guarino +2
We here discuss the process of opinion formation in an open community where agents are made to interact and consequently update their beliefs. New actors (birth) are assumed to rep…
Dynamical affinity in opinion dynamics modelling
Franco Bagnoli, Timoteo Carletti, Duccio Fanelli +2
We here propose a model to simulate the process of opinion formation, which accounts for the mutual affinity between interacting agents. Opinion and affinity evolve self-consistent…
