Learning, bounded memory, and inertia
Alós-Ferrer, Carlos - 2008

Contagion and Efficiency
Alós-Ferrer, Carlos; Weidenholzer, Simon - 2008
We consider a population of agents, either finite or countably infinite, located on an arbitrary network. Agents interact directly only with their immediate neighbors, but are able to observe the behavior of (some) other agents beyond their interaction neighborhood, and learn from that behavior...
