Correlated Information Reduces Accuracy of Pioneering Decision-Makers
Megan Stickler, William Ott, Zachary P. Kilpatrick +2
Normative models are often used to describe how humans and animals make decisions. These models treat deliberation as the accumulation of uncertain evidence that terminates with a…
Efficient Evader Detection in Mobile Sensor Networks
Henry Adams, Deepjyoti Ghosh, Clark Mask +2
Suppose one wants to monitor a domain with sensors, each sensing a small ball-shaped region, but the domain is hazardous enough that one cannot control the placement of the sensors…
A kinetic theory approach for 2D crowd dynamics with emotional contagion
Daewa Kim, Kaylie O'Connell, William Ott +1
In this paper, we present a computational modeling approach for the dynamics of human crowds, where the spreading of an emotion (specifically fear) has an influence on the pedestri…
Delay-Induced Uncertainty for a Paradigmatic Glucose-Insulin Model
Bhargav Karamched, George Hripcsak, Dave Albers +1
Medical practice in the intensive care unit is based on the supposition that physiological systems such as the human glucose-insulin system are predictable. We demonstrate that del…
Nonstationary open dynamical systems
Brett Geiger, William Ott
This paper studies nonstationary open dynamical systems from the statistical viewpoint. By open, we mean that trajectories may escape through holes in the phase space. By nonstatio…
Stochastic and Coarse-Grained Two-Dimensional Modeling of Directional Particle Movement
William Ott, Ilya Timofeyev, Thomas Weber
We study the evolution of interacting groups of agents in two-dimensional geometries. We introduce a microscopic stochastic model that includes floor fields modeling the global flo…
