Lewis-Skyrms signaling games (Lewis 1969; Skyrms 2010) have been studied under a variety of low-rationality learning dynamics (Barrett 2006; Barrett and Zollman 2009; Huttegger, Skyrms, Smead, and Zollman 2010; Huttegger, Skyrms, Tarrès, and Wagner 2014; Huttegger, Skyrms, and Zollman 2014). Reinforcement dynamics are stable but slow and prone to evolving suboptimal signaling conventions. A low...

Models of bounded rationality often lead to sharper predictions about real world outcomes than their full rationality counterparts. Full rationality in repeated interactions allows a plethora of equilibrium outcomes. In this paper, I examine the effect of bounded rationality in infinitely repeated games. In particular, does the introduction of boundedly rational agents lead to a smaller set of ...

Computer technology has been rapidly advancing over the past two decades, mostly due to the high demand for personal and institutional computers. While this trend is expected to continue for a few years, Personal Computers (PCs) will slowly lose their position as the main driving factor behind the computer technology. This article starts by introducing the new devices that are likely to join or...

Introduction HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease in patients with HIV-1 infection. While HIVAN involves all portions of the kidney, marked changes in podocyte proliferation and dedifferentiation are central to the pathogenesis of this disease. This review focuses on identifying the genes and signaling pathways that trigger terminally differentiated...

This article elaborates on the structural, thematic and characterological similarities between Alan Parker’s Pink Floyd: The Wall Homer’s Iliad, reading both works as epics that revolve around hero’s wrath, its consequences resolution. argument is organised three central topics: loss cause of heroes’ inaction suffering inflicted by an inhumane power in context war; law foundation a social order...

the aim of this research is to compare two weight loss methods in 20 to 25- year-old well-trained wrestlers. 30 well-trained wrestlers participated in this research voluntarily and then were randomly divided into two groups. their percentage of body fat (measured with caliper) and strength and endurance of their upper and lower extremities were measured before and after the weight loss program....
