Agent-Based Evacuation Modeling: Enhancing Building Safety in Emergency Scenarios by Miguel Islas-Toski, Erik Cuevas, Marco Pérez-Cisneros, Héctor Escobar

“…The primary objective of an evacuation model is to realistically simulate the process by which a large group of people can reach available exits efficiently. This paper introduces an agent-based evacuation model that represents the environment as a rectangular grid, where individuals, obstacles, and exits interact dynamically. …”

Impact of High-Frequency Trading with an Order Book Imbalance Strategy on Agent-Based Stock Markets by Isao Yagi, Mahiro Hoshino, Takanobu Mizuta

“…Furthermore, there has been a long-standing debate in the empirical research field as to whether HFT is the cause of flash crashes, but no final conclusion has been reached. In the present study, we analysed the impacts of HFT taking into account the correlation between order book imbalance and future returns on a stable market and on a market with a flash crash, using agent-based simulations, which are said to be capable of analysing events in their essence. …”

Bridging behavioral theory and household energy decisions: enhancing agent-based models with behavioral analysis by Mariëlle Rietkerk-van der Wijngaart, Lynn de Jager, Lynn de Jager, Geeske Scholz, Emile Chappin, Gerdien de Vries

“…To design effective policy measures that motivate households to change their behavior in favor of the energy transition, agent-based models (ABMs) are vital. For ABMs to reach their full potential in policy design, they must appropriately represent behavioral dynamics. …”
