CapOvCWD is an agent-based model that simulates a captive cervid herd composed of adults and fawns. The model deer population is initialized using data on herd size and composition from captive facility records. Individual deer domiciliary history and annual CWD testing records inform the herd size and sample size (for CWD testing), respectively. The model can be used to iteratively estimate the facility level annual CWD detection probability. Detection probability estimates can be further refined by incorporating multiyear CWD testing data. This approach can be particularly useful for interpreting negative test results from a subset of the captive herd. Facility level detection probability estimates provide a comprehensive and standardized risk metric that reflects the likelihood of undetected CWD in the facility.

This is an interdisciplinary agent-based model with Monte Carlo simulations to assess the relative effects of broadcast and contagion processes in a multiplex social network. This multiplex approach models multiple channels of informal communication - phone, word-of-mouth, and social media - that vary in their attribute values. Each agent is an individual in a threatened community who, once warned, has a probability of warning others in their social network using one of these channels. The probability of an individual warning others is based on their warning source and the time remaining until disaster impact, among other variables. Default parameter values were chosen from empirical studies of disaster warnings along with the spatial aspects of Coos Bay, OR, USA and Seaside, OR, USA communities.

CROwd Simulation of Situated individuals represents a modern generation simulation as a (social) scientific tool for understanding crowd behaviour. The CROSS model represents individuals in a crowd as social-cognitive agents that are affected by their social and physical surroundings and produce behaviour and behaviour patterns.

This NetLogo model simulates the impact of mowing frequency, mower type and the percentage of refuge strips on the abundance of arthropods in managed grasslands. It represents five functional arthropod groups: holometabolous plant-dwelling arthropods (HoP, represented by butterflies); holometabolous ground-dwelling arthropods (HoG, represented by ants); nesting pollinators (NP, represented by bees); hemimetabolous plant-dwelling arthropods (HeP, represented by grasshoppers); and ground-resident arthropods (GR, represented by spiders). Three mowing frequencies are simulated: intensive (four mowings per year), intermediate (two mowings per year) and extensive (one mowing per year). Bar and disc mowers differ in their effects on arthropod mortality and vegetation height. Refuge strip coverage can be set to 0%, 10% or 20%. Arthropod abundance changes over time through movement, reproduction, natural mortality, mower-related mortality and vegetation regrowth.

This is an extension of the basic Suceptible, Infected, Recovered (SIR) model. This model explores the spread of disease in two spaces, one a treatment, and one a control. Through the modeling options, one can explore how changing assumptions about the number of susceptible people, starting number of infected people, the disease’s infection probability, and average duration impacts the outcome. In addition, this version allows users to explore how public health interventions like social distancing, masking, and isolation can affect the number of people infected. The model shows that the interactions of agents, and the interventions can drastically affect the results of the model.

We used the model in our course about COVID-19: https://www.csats.psu.edu/science-of-covid19

Meridian is a deterministic artificial world in which autonomous LLM scientist agents run
experiments on instruments, exchange letters, and maintain explicit probabilistic beliefs, while
a physical constant changes covertly mid-run. The true state is known only to the simulator, so
whether anyone notices becomes a measurement rather than an interpretation.

The platform separates three things that are usually confounded: what could have been known from

chitwanabm is a spatially explicit agent-based model of population and land use in the Chitwan Valley, Nepal, designed to explore feedbacks between population and environment, with a heavy focus on community context and individual-level variation.

We reconstruct Cohen, March and Olsen’s Garbage Can model of organizational choice as an agent-based model. We add another means for avoiding making decisions: buck-passing difficult problems to colleagues.

This agent-based model examines the impact of seasonal aggregation, dispersion, and learning opportunities on the richness and evenness of artifact styles under random social learning (unbiased transmission).

The code contains four experiments for well-being based IMRL reward features.
