Key challenges in agent-based modelling for geo-spatial simulation
Agent-based modelling (ABM) is becoming the dominant paradigm in social simulation due primarily to a worldview that suggests that complex systems emerge from the bottom-up, are highly decentralised, and are composed of a multitude of heterogeneous objects called agents. These agents act with some purpose and their interaction, usually through time and space, generates emergent order, often at ...
متن کاملAgent-based Simulation of Geo-Political Conflict
The intelligence analysis task of anticipating crises and providing decision makers with reasonable (supportable, explainable) possible futures is extremely difficult. To perform this task, a team of analysts must consider the political, economic, and military aspects of national governments and non-governmental organizations. This paper describes an agent-based simulation framework, the Advanc...
متن کاملAgent-Based Geo-simulation to Support Human Planning and Spatial Cognition
In this paper we emphasize the strengths and weaknesses of human planning and especially within a geographic space. We propose a multi-agent simulation approach in order to overcome some of these limitations while reasoning about a large-scale geographic space. A cognitive complementarity between software agents and human beings emerges from this approach. An illustration on wildfire fighting i...
متن کاملSpatial indexing in agent-based crowd simulation
Crowd modeling and simulation has become a critical tool for understanding crowds and predicting their behaviours. This is accomplished by modelling the characteristics and behaviours of large groups of people, as well as their interactions. Agent-based crowd simulation may involve thousands of complex agents interacting in sophisticated ways, in close spatial proximity, with each other. A key ...
متن کاملGuest Editorial Spatial agent-based modelling
The convergence of object-oriented approaches to data modelling within geographic information science together with increasingly fine-scale data collection approaches and discrete-event simulations has created new opportunities to build dynamic representations of geographical systems (Gimblett 2002, Brown et al. 2005). In particular, agent-based modelling has become an important representationa...
