Agent-Based Exploration of Recommendation Systems in Misinformation Propagation

This study uses agent-based modeling to examine the impact of various recommendation algorithms on the propagation of misinformation on online social networks. We simulate a synthetic environment consisting of heterogeneous agents, including regular …

Large Language Models for Agent-Based Modelling: Current and Possible Uses Across the Modelling Cycle

The emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) with increasingly sophisticated natural language understanding and generative capabilities has sparked interest in the Agent-based Modelling (ABM) community. With their ability to summarize, generate, …

Towards an ABM on Proactive Community Adaptation for Climate Change

We present an agent-based model (ABM) simulating proactive community adaptation to climate change in an urban context. The model is applied to Bergen, Norway, represented as a complex socio-ecological system. It integrates multiple agent types: …

PRO-CLIMATE: Proactive Community Adaptation to Climate Change through Social Transformation and Behavioural Change. Horizon Europe Programme (HORIZON-CL5-2023-D1-01-09). Grant Agreement No. 101137967.

Towards an LLM-powered Social Digital Twinning Platform

We present Social Digital Twinner, an innovative social simulation tool for exploring plausible effects of what-if scenarios in complex adaptive social systems. The architecture is composed of three seamlessly integrated parts: a data infrastructure …

A Generic Modelling Framework for Last-Mile Delivery Systems using the Agent/Group/Role Approach

Large-scale social digital twinning projects are complex with multiple objectives. For example, a social digital twinning platform for innovative last-mile delivery solutions may aim to assess consumer delivery method choices within their social …

Modélisation à base d'Agents Augmentés par LLM pour les Simulations Sociales : Défis et Opportunités

Alors que les grands modèles linguistiques (LLM) continuent de faire des progrès significatifs, leur meilleure intégration dans les simulations basées sur des agents offre un potentiel de transformation pour la compréhension des systèmes sociaux …

LLM-Augmented Agent-Based Modelling for Social Simulations: Challenges and Opportunities

As large language models (LLMs) continue to make significant strides, their better integration into agent-based simulations offers a transformational potential for understanding complex social systems. However, such integration is not trivial and …

A Guide to Re-Implementing Agent-based Models: Experiences from the HUMAT Model

Replicating existing agent-based models poses significant challenges, particularly for those new to the field. This article presents an all-encompassing guide to re-implementing agent-based models, encompassing vital concepts such as comprehending …
