When overconfident agents slow down collective learning

Rouchier, Juliette; Tanimura, Emily - HAL - 2012

This paper presents a model of influence where agents' beliefs are based on an objective reality, such as the properties of an environment. The perception of the objective reality is not direct: all agents know is that the more correct a belief, the more successful the actions that are deduced...

Truth and Cognitive Division of Labour: First Steps Towards a Computer Aided Social Epistemology

Hegselmann, Rainer; Krause, Ulrich - In: Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation 9 (2006) 3, pp. 10-10

The paper analyzes the chances for the truth to be found and broadly accepted under conditions of cognitive division of labour combined with a social exchange process. Cognitive division of labour means, that only some individuals are active truth seekers, possibly with different capacities. The...
