Modeling Projects
Social interactions
- Modeling crowd dynamics
The first two papers describe two-dimensional models of pedestrian dynamics. The third paper is in one space dimension and focuses on model characteristics that reproduce the experimentally measured velocity-density relationship of pedestrian flows.- Macroscopic effects of microscopic forces between agents

Physica A 368, 232-238 (2006).
- Modeling competition between languages
The first paper describes a stochastic model for the evolution of the distribution of languages. The last 2 papers discuss the Abrams-Strogatz model of competition between languages.- Non-equilibrium and irreversible simulation of competition among languages, by D. Stauffer, C. Schulze, F.W.S. Lima, S. Wichmann, and S. Solomon,
Physica A 371, 719-724 (2006). - Coexistence of Languages is possible, by J.P. Pinasco and L. Romanelli,

Physica A 374, 835-842 (2007).
- Modeling the dream team
The first link points to a perspective article published in Science. The second link points to the article describing the model of team formation.- Network Theory - the emergence of the creative enterprise by A.-L. Barabási,
Science 308, 639-641 (2005). - Team assembly mechanisms determine collaboration network structure and team performance by R. Guimerà, B. Uzzi, J. Spiro and L.A. Amaral,
Science 308, 697-702 (2005).
- Modeling traffic flow
The first paper discusses the building of traffic jams on a single-lane road. The second paper is concerned with a nonlinear map that describes the dynamics of shuttle buses. The third article discusses a car-following model for night driving, and the fourth a car-following model in which the drivers' response time is taken into account.- Jam formation in traffic flow on a highway with some
slowdown sections, by H. Hanaura, T. Nagatani, and K. Tanaka,
Physica A 374, 419-430 (2007). - Chaos control and schedule of shuttle buses, by T. Nagatani,

Physica A 387, 3290-3298 (2008).
- Modeling opinion formation
The first two articles discuss gossip spreading. The third paper analyzes a model for non-conservative voters and reviews other voting models.- The spread of gossip in American schools, by P.G. Lind, L.R. da Silva, J.S. Andrade, Jr., and H.J. Herrmann,
Europhys. Lett. 78, 68005 (2007). - Spreading gossip in social networks, by P.G. Lind, L.R. da Silva, J.S. Andrade, Jr., and H.J. Herrmann,

This paper describes a regret-driven model of interactive learning.- Predicting human interactive learning
by regret-driven neural networks, by D. Marchiori and M. Warglien,
