Aggregation and Emergence in Agent-Based Models: A Markov Chain Approach
Sven Banisch, Ricardo Lima, Tanya Araújo
We analyze the dynamics of agent--based models (ABMs) from a Markovian perspective and derive explicit statements about the possibility of linking a microscopic agent model to the…
Agent Based Models and Opinion Dynamics as Markov Chains
Sven Banisch, Ricardo Lima, Tanya Araújo
This paper introduces a Markov chain approach that allows a rigorous analysis of agent based opinion dynamics as well as other related agent based models (ABM). By viewing the ABM…
Opinion Dynamics and Communication Networks
S. Banisch, T. Araújo, J. Louçã
This paper examines the interplay of opinion exchange dynamics and communication network formation. An opinion formation procedure is introduced which is based on an abstract repre…
Education, neighbourhood effects and growth: an agent based model approach
Tanya Araujo, Miguel St. Aubyn
Endogenous, ideas-led, growth theory and agent based modelling with neighbourhood effects literature are crossed. In an economic overlapping generations framework, it is shown how…
Function and form in networks of interacting agents
Tanya Araujo, R. Vilela Mendes
The main problem we address in this paper is whether function determines form when a society of agents organizes itself for some purpose or whether the organizing method is more im…
