Utilising social recommendation for decision-making in distributed multi-agent systems. Issue 6 (15th April 2015) - Neville, Brendan
Highlights We explore models of social influence in an open multi-agent system market scenario. Consumer choice is informed by peer recommendations in an evolving social network. We compare the behaviour of two algorithms for selecting recommending peers. We study the link between selection algorithms and the emergent network topologies. We study the impact of the peer selection algorithms on the agents' performance.
