Evolving Automata Negotiate with a Variety of Opponents
Bragt, D.D.B. van; Poutre, J.A. La - Society for Computational Economics - SCE - 2001
with different preferences. We show that such flexible and powerful bargaining agents can be obtained using the combination … of finite automata and evolutionary algorithms (EAs). Finite automata allow the bargaining agents to behave differently … against different opponents. EAs can be used to adapt the agents' bargaining strategies (consisting of finite automata) in …

On the Implementation and Use of a Genetic Algorithm with Genetic Acquisitions
Mateescu, George Daniel - In: Journal for Economic Forecasting (2010) 2, pp. 223-230
A genetic algorithm is convergent when genetic mutations occur on the objective function gradient direction. These genetic mutations are called genetic acquisitions (Mateescu, 2005). We improved the algorithm and its implementation by using the characteristics of parents in order to generate new...

OPTIMIZATION BY USING EVOLUTIONARY ALGORITHMS WITH GENETIC ACQUISITIONS
Mateescu, George Daniel - In: Journal for Economic Forecasting 2 (2005) 2, pp. 26-30
Evolutionary algorithms represent a powerful tool for a wide set of problems, based on biological principles. The main goal of this article is to underline the principle of genetic acquisitions. To do this, we will use mutations with respect to the gradient of an objective function.

Social Learning about Consumption
Seppecher, Pascal; Salle, Isabelle - Groupe de REcherche en Droit, Économie, Gestion … - 2013
This paper applies a social learning model to the optimal consumption rule of Allen & Carroll (2001), and delivers convincing convergence dynamics towards the optimal rule. These findings constitute a significant improvement regarding previous results in the literature, both in terms of speed of...

Evolutionary Learning in the Ultimatum Game
Riechmann, Thomas - Society for Computational Economics - SCE - 2001
The ultimatum game is (in)famous for its `anomalies': The outcomes of laboratory experiments are very different from the results generated by traditional game theory. This paper aims to find to what extent these discrepancies between theory and experiments can be explained by the effects of...

A Model of Boundedly Rational Consumer Choice - An Agent Based Appraoch
Riechmann, Thomas - Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät, Leibniz … - 2000
The paper presents an extended version of the consumer choice problem. Different from the standard model, prices are not fixed but arise from Walrasian interactions of total demand and a stylized supply function for each of the goods. Three different types of evolutionary algorithms are set up...
