This computational model accompanies the article “The Informational Assumptions of Schelling Segregation: An Agent-Based Decomposition of Cue Inference, Cultural Schemas, and Residential Sorting.” It implements an agent-based model in which agents infer latent neighborhood-type classes from noisy non-demographic cues through schema-specific diagnostic mappings, update beliefs, and relocate when satisfaction on a preferred latent class falls below a threshold.

The model serves as a mechanism-isolation device for studying the informational architecture underlying Schelling-style residential sorting. It includes the principal sweep configuration (14,400 runs across a seven-parameter grid), a disagreement-metric sub-sweep with permutation-minimized Jensen-Shannon divergence recorded natively, controls (positive, negative, and frozen-belief), a paired-seed cue-channel perturbation experiment, and selected-cell sensitivity sweeps for cue persistence and home-biased mobility.

The full ODD protocol, parameter manifests, deterministic seed schedules, processed outputs, regenerable figure scripts, the verification test suite, and the satisfaction-mapping audit document are included. Every reported run is deterministic given a (config, seed) pair, and an included audit script verifies bit-for-bit replay on sampled runs.

The intention of this model is to create an universal basis on how to model change in value prioritizations within social simulation. This model illustrates the designing of heterogeneous populations within agent-based social simulations by equipping agents with Dynamic Value-based Cognitive Architectures (DVCA-model). The DVCA-model uses the psychological theories on values by Schwartz (2012) and character traits by McCrae and Costa (2008) to create an unique trait- and value prioritization system for each individual. Furthermore, the DVCA-model simulates the impact of both social persuasion and life-events (e.g. information, experience) on the value systems of individuals by introducing the innovative concept of perception thermometers. Perception thermometers, controlled by the character traits, operate as buffers between the internal value prioritizations of agents and their external interactions. By introducing the concept of perception thermometers, the DVCA-model allows to study the dynamics of individual value prioritizations under a variety of internal and external perturbations over extensive time periods. Possible applications are the use of the DVCA-model within artificial sociality, opinion dynamics, social learning modelling, behavior selection algorithms and social-economic modelling.

Agent-based model of cooperation among fourteen EU member states under geopolitical shocks, 2024-2040. States are adaptive agents on the observed intra-EU trade network, updating a cooperation propensity through inertia, network influence, and a repeated-game payoff structure built from verified Eurostat, Eurobarometer and IMF data. An anchoring device makes the observed 2024 configuration exactly stationary absent shocks, so results are read as deviations from an empirical baseline. Five scenarios of increasing severity are simulated with Monte Carlo replication, up to an extreme counterfactual crisis in the Taiwan Strait. Includes six robustness batteries and a full ODD description.

This is a model intended to demonstrate the function of scramble crossings and a more efficient flow of pedestrian traffic with the presence of diagonal crosswalks.

This model simulates a simple aquatic ecosystem containing fish and food. It explores how individual interactions such as movement, feeding, and reproduction shape the population dynamics of fish over time.

We introduce a model of prediction markets that uses opinion dynamics as its underlying mechanism for price formation. We base the opinion dynamics on the Deffuant model of bounded rationality. We have used this model to show that price formation in prediction markets can be robustly explained by opinion dynamics, and that the model can also explain phase transitions depending on just two parameters.

The Urban Traffic Simulator is an agent-based model developed in the Unity platform. The model allows the user to simulate several autonomous vehicles (AVs) and tune granular parameters such as vehicle downforce, adherence to speed limits, top speed in mph and mass. The model allows researchers to tune these parameters, run the simulator for a given period and export data from the model for analysis (an example is provided in Jupyter Notebook).

The data the model is currently able to output are the following:

A dynamic identity model for misinformation in social networks, an agent-based model of social identity and misinformation dynamics.

I developed this model as a part of my master’s thesis, “Does social identity drive belief and persistence in online misinformation? An agent-based modelling approach” at University College Dublin, Ireland (2024-2025).

The purpose of this model is to further understand the dynamics of misinformation sharing as an expression of social identity. I introduce a framework to understand the influence of self-categorisation on misinformation persistence in social network. It integrates a social learning model with the Dynamic Identity Model for Agents (DIMA) using simple logic to simulate the social trade-offs driving misinformation and observe the effects on misinformation spread.
