  • Ethnoarchaeology of Hunter-Fisher-Gatherer Societies in the Beagle Channel (Tierra del Fuego): Ethnographical Sources and Social Simulation

    Open AccessIvan Briz I Godino, Luis R Izquierdo et al.ARTICLERevista de Arqueología Americana2025

    Research from the Beagle Channel (Tierra del Fuego) offers a rich ethnographic and historical record produced by the late inclusion of Tierra del Fuego in the industrial world (the Beagle Channel was discovered by R. Fitz-Roy in 1830). This is an interesting frame for using new techniques (social simulation by Agent Based Modelling (ABM)) to generate new hypotheses inarchaeology. In this case, the hypothesis is focused on the role of social coope…

  • Social Simulation Models as Refuting Machines

    Open AccessNicolas Mauhé, Luis R Izquierdo et al.ARTICLEJournal of Artificial Societies…2023

    This paper discusses a prominent way in which social simulations can contribute (and have contributed) to the advance of science; namely, by refuting some of our incorrect beliefs about how the real world works. More precisely, social simulations can produce counter-examples that reveal something is wrong in a prevailing scientific assumption. Indeed, here we argue that this is a role that many well-known social simulation models have played, and…

  • Mamdani Fuzzy Systems for Modelling and Simulation: A Critical Assessment

    Open AccessSegismundo S Izquierdo, Luis R IzquierdoARTICLEJournal of Artificial Societies…2018

    Fuzzy logic presents many potential applications for modelling and simulation. In particular, this paper analyses one of the most popular fuzzy logic techniques: Mamdani systems. Mamdani systems can look particularly appealing because they are designed to incorporate expert knowledge in the form of IF-THEN rules expressed in natural language. While this is an attractive feature for modelling and simulating social and other complex systems, its ac…

  • Fuzzy Logic for Social Simulation Using NetLogo

    Open AccessLuis R Izquierdo, Doina Olaru et al.ARTICLEJournal of Artificial Societies…2015

    Fuzzy Logic is a framework particularly useful to formalise and deal with imprecise concepts and statements expressed in natural language. This paper has three related aims. First, it aims to provide a short introduction to the basics of Fuzzy Logic within the context of social simulation. Secondly, it presents a well-documented NetLogo extension that facilitates the use of Fuzzy Logic within NetLogo. Finally, by providing a concrete example, it …

  • Modelado de sistemas complejos mediante simulación basada en agentes y mediante dinámica de sistemas

    Open AccessLuis R Izquierdo, José Manuel Galán et al.ARTICLEEmpiria Revista de metodología de…2008Cited by: 2References: 4

    Este trabajo compara dos técnicas de modelado de sistemas complejos: la simulación basada en agentes y la dinámica de sistemas. Esta comparación se lleva a cabo dentro del marco general del proceso de modelado científico. Los autores concluyen que la principal diferencia entre las dos metodologías se encuentra en el proceso de abstracción que cada una de ellas realiza para construir el modelo formal a partir del sistema complejo observado. Esta d…
