Mixing beliefs among interacting agents

Guillaume Deffuant, David B. Neau, Frédéric Amblard et al. · 1 Jan 2000

We present a model of opinion dynamics in which agents adjust continuous opinions as a result of random binary encounters whenever their difference in opinion is below a given threshold. High thresholds yield convergence of opinions towards an average opinion, whereas low thresholds result in several opinion clusters: members of the same cluster share the…

COMMUNITY STRUCTURE IN JAZZ

PABLO M. GLEISER, LEON DANON · 1 Dec 2003

Using a database of jazz recordings we study the collaboration network of jazz musicians. We define the network at two different levels. First we study the collaboration network between individuals, where two musicians are connected if they have played in the same band. Then we consider the collaboration between bands, where two bands are connected…

THE GEANT4-DNA PROJECT

S. Incerti, Gérard Baldacchino, Mario A. Bernal et al. · 1 Jun 2010

The Geant4-DNA project proposes to develop an open-source simulation software based and fully included in the general-purpose Geant4 Monte-Carlo simulation toolkit. The main objective of this software is to simulate biological damages induced by ionizing radiations at the cellular and sub-cellular scale. This project was originally initiated by the European Space Agency for the prediction…

SPECIFICATION OF THE SOCIAL FORCE PEDESTRIAN MODEL BY EVOLUTIONARY ADJUSTMENT TO VIDEO TRACKING DATA

Anders Johansson, Dirk Helbing, Pradyumn Kumar Shukla · 1 Dec 2007

Based on suitable video recordings of interactive pedestrian motion and improved tracking software, we apply an evolutionary optimization algorithm to determine optimal parameter specifications for the social force model. The calibrated model is then used for large-scale pedestrian simulations of evacuation scenarios, pilgrimage, and urban environments.

MAPPING TECHNOLOGICAL TRAJECTORIES AS PATENT CITATION NETWORKS: A STUDY ON THE HISTORY OF FUEL CELL RESEARCH

Bart Verspagen · 1 Mar 2007

Technological change is argued to be taking place along ordered and selective patterns, shaped jointly by technological and scientific principles, and economic and other societal factors. Historical, descriptive analysis is often used to analyze these "trajectories". Recently, quantitative methods have been proposed to map these trajectories. It is argued that such methods have, so far,…

Advances in Complex Systems template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Advances in Complex Systems format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Advances in Complex Systems template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official World Scientific format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Advances in Complex Systems use?
Advances in Complex Systems uses Superscript numbered (World Scientific) references, shown as superscript numerals in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A., Jones, B. & Lee, C. A representative article title. Advances in Complex Systems 12, 45–58 (2023).
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Advances in Complex Systems?
No. DocuGuru generates the ws-ijmpa LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a World Scientific-ready Advances in Complex Systems document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
