Agents Shaping Networks Shaping Agents: Integrating Social Network Analysis and Agent-Based Modeling in Computational Crime Research
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents a recent development of an interdisciplinary research exploring innovative computational approaches to the scientific study of criminal behavior. The attention is focused on an attempt to combine social network analysis and agent-based modelling into CrimeMiner, an experimental framework that seamlessly integrates document-enhancement, visualization and network analysis techniques to support the study of criminal organizations. Our goal is both methodological and scientific. We are exploring how the synergy between ABM and SNA can support a deeper and more empirically grounded understanding of the complex dynamics taking place within criminal organizations between the individual/behavioral and social/structural level.

A computational model and convergence theorem for rumor dissemination in social networks
The spread of rumors, which are known as unverified statements of uncertain origin, may threaten the society and it's controlling, is important for national security councils of countries. If it would be possible to identify factors affecting spreading a rumor (such as agents’ desires, trust network, etc.) then, this could be used to slow down or stop its spreading. Therefore, a computational m...
متن کاملEconomy-driven Shaping of Social Networks and Emerging Class Behaviors
Agent-based Computational Economics (ACE) is a powerful framework for studying emergent complex systems resulting from the interactions of agents either mildly rational, or with incomplete information [1, 2, 3] or driven by the social network [4, 5, 6]. This paper focuses on the interrelationship between social networks and economic activities. Compared to the state of the art, the main origina...
متن کاملIntelligent multi-agent modeling of the interbank network and evaluation of the impact of regulatory policies
agent-based modeling is an emerging computational technique that makes it possible to simulate complex economic systems, including the banking network, with a bottom-up approach. In this paper, the country's banking network is simulated with an intelligent multi-agent modeling model and indicates that these agents behave based on the adaptive learning. This modeling has been done with the aim o...
متن کاملA Multiagent Reinforcement Learning algorithm to solve the Community Detection Problem
Community detection is a challenging optimization problem that consists of searching for communities that belong to a network under the assumption that the nodes of the same community share properties that enable the detection of new characteristics or functional relationships in the network. Although there are many algorithms developed for community detection, most of them are unsuitable when ...

Network of connections is an informal institution, which affects agents’ decisions as well as their outcomes. Dominant neoclassical paradigm has neglected the role of connections and links, due to its atomistic view, while social networks can play a crucial role with regards to economic and social phenomena, such as migration, job finding, crime network, learning, financial crisis contagion, mi...
