THE EFFECT OF SOCIAL PREFERENCES ON THE EVOLUTION OF COOPERATION IN PUBLIC GOOD GAMES
2014
Advances in Complex Systems
Building on existing models on the evolution of cooperation and costly punishment, we use a utilitarian formulation of agent decision making to explore conditions that support the emergence of cooperative ...
Human societies are unique in the level of cooperation among non-kin. Evolutionary models explaining this behavior typically assume pure strategies of cooperation and defection. ...

A Statistical Physics Characterization of the Complex Systems Dynamics: Quantifying Complexity from Spatio-Temporal Interactions
2016
Scientific Reports
In such a complex system, the group with identical agents' behavior evolves through different states (i.e., spatio-temporal arrangement/configuration of the agents moving in a collective group formation ...
We show that the collective motion of the group of agents evolves to reach the most probable state with relatively lowest energy level and lowest missing information compared to other possible states. ...
These multi-modal heterogeneous interactions among the agents cause the motion of the group to evolve through various spatio-temporal structures while moving as a synchronized and coherent entity without ...

The coevolution of economic institutions and sustainable consumption via cultural group selection
2017
Ecological Economics
In the model, sustainable societies emerge in only a minority of cases. ...
We speculate that economic institutions which support resource conservation, such as property regimes and systems of production, may emerge via a process of cultural group selection amongst social-ecological ...

"Climbing the hierarchical ladders of rules": A life-cycle theory of institutional evolution
2011
Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization
If agents are heterogeneous (as we assume), then coordination needs differ and a competitive process begins among sponsors of alternative orders. ...
We then analyze the strategic interplay among sponsors of alternative institutional orders by considering not only the "horizontal" competition among institutions emerging in the same time but also the ...
Second, in order to gain bargaining power, agents may build coalitions (Section 3.3.2). Thus "core groups" of agents emerge and propose their preferred collective rules to the other agents. ...

Boosting cooperation by evolving trust
2000
Applied Artificial Intelligence
T rust is represented as a preference to be grouped together with agents with a certain label to play a game. ...
It is shown that stable relations of trust can emerge and that the coevolution of trust boosts the evolution of cooperation. ...
Therefore, there d The is no a priori, global preference of agents to be grouped together. Nevertheless, a stable relation of trust emerges. ...

The role of reward structure, coordination mechanism and net return in the evolution of cooperation

Using hyenas as motivation, this paper evaluates three potential factors that affect the evolution of cooperation in a team of game agents: reward structure (i.e. whether fitness reward is given to an ...

Homo Economicus and Homo Sapiens

Review of Behavioral Economics
JEL Codes: C45, C63, C73, D83, D71 Explaining how patterns of collective behavior emerge from interactions among individuals with diverse, sometimes opposing, goals is a societally crucial and particularly ...
For this reason, the dichotomy between rule-based and centralized groups versus self-organized and decentralized groups is false -one of the major activities that self-organized and decentralized groups ...
The emergence of a common currency from the collectively traded resources is a persuasive example of a group-level pattern that emerges from individuals who are motivated by their own concerns but none ...

Symmetry-based reciprocity: evolutionary constraints on a proximate mechanism

Symmetry-based reciprocity is a hypothetical proximate mechanism that has been suggested to be widespread among cognitively unsophisticated animals.Methods.We developed two agent-based models of symmetry-based ...

A classification of product comparison agents
2003
Proceedings of the 5th international conference on Electronic commerce - ICEC '03
In this paper, we propose a conceptual schema for categorizing comparison-shopping agents into three groups: differentiation agents, evaluation agents and preference agents. ...
Over the last decade of rise and growth of e-commerce, a large number and variety of electronic comparison-shopping agents have emerged on the Web, but little research has been done on classifying them ...
More sophisticated comparison agents will emerge as a consequence of evolving consumer demand. ...

The Co-Evolution of Fairness Preferences and Costly Punishment
2013
PLoS ONE
The evolutionary dominance and stability of disadvantageous inequity aversion is demonstrated by enabling agents to co-evolve with different self-and other-regarding preferences in a competitive environment ...
We study the co-evolutionary emergence of fairness preferences in the form of other-regarding behavior and its effect on the origination of costly punishment behavior in public good games. ...
This paper addresses the question whether and under what conditions other-regarding preferences can emerge, evolve and ultimately dominate pure self-regarding and selfish behavior and, consequently, whether ...
