Cognitive Approach to Modeling Reflexive Control in Socio-Economic Systems

Rule Based Fuzzy Cognitive Maps in Socio-Economic Systems

This paper shows how Rule Based Fuzzy Cognitive Maps can be useful to model qualitative socio-economic systems, by discussing and presenting a macroeconomic model that, although developed eight years ago and based on simple qualitative rules, described and predicted the current economic crisis when the policy behavior of the banking system regarding tax-rates was assumed similar to the one that...

Integrated Modeling of Cognitive Agents in Socio-technical Systems

Modern socio-technical systems are characterized by high structural and behavioral complexities, which impede understanding and modeling of such systems. In particular, reciprocal relations between diverse local system processes that determine global system dynamics are not well understood. In this paper we focus on the problem of establishing relations between cognitive processes that determin...

Control of the socio-economic systems using herding interactions

Collective behavior of the complex socio-economic systems is heavily influenced by the herding, group, behavior of individuals. The importance of the herding behaviormay enable the control of the collective behavior of the individuals. In this contribution we consider a simple agent-based herding model modified to include agents with controlled state. We show that in certain case even the small...
