AI总结:
本研究通过基于智能体的模型分析理性在社群中的传播,并对比特币用户行为进行基准测试,发现理性行为随加密货币价值上升而涌现,提出熵度量结合模型可检测理性兴起,并可用于其他社会现象。
摘要:
做出明智决策,即理性行事,是自然界和人类社会中一种极其重要的个体态度。在本研究中,我们探讨理性如何在社群中传播。为此,我们通过一个基于智能体的模型,分析了一个由个体组成的人群的动态,这些个体拥有由数值参数控制的理性态度,并参与一个简单博弈。该博弈包含多种策略,每种策略对应特定的奖励。所提出的模型随后被用作研究比特币用户行为的基准,其行为通过分析区块链上记录的交易来推断。值得注意的是,一个经历从非理性态度到理性态度急剧转变的人群,其行为模式与比特币用户相似,后者的理性在其加密货币价值仅几美分(美元)时便已显现。总之,基于熵度量并结合简单基于智能体模型的行为分析,使我们能够检测到社群中理性行为的兴起。尽管需要进一步研究来证实我们的结果,但我们认为所提出的方法也可用于研究其他社会现象和行为。
英文摘要:
Taking informed decisions, namely acting rationally, is an individual attitude of paramount relevance in nature and human societies. In this work, we study how rationality spreads in a community. To this end, through an agent-based model, we analyse the dynamics of a population whose individuals, endowed with a rational attitude controlled by a numerical parameter, play a simple game. The latter consists of multiple strategies, each associated with a given reward. The proposed model is then used as a benchmark for studying the behaviour of Bitcoin users, inferred by analysing transactions recorded in the Blockchain. Remarkably, a population undergoing a sharp transition from irrational to rational attitudes shows a behavioural pattern similar to that of Bitcoin users, whose rationality showed up as soon as their cryptocurrency became worth just a few cents (USD). To conclude, a behavioural analysis that relies on an entropy measure combined with a simple agent-based model allows us to detect the rise of rationality across a community. Although further investigations are essential to corroborate our results, we deem the proposed approach could also get used for studying other social phenomena and behaviours.
