Integrating Artificial Agent in the Simulation Model of the Russian Federation Spatial Development

摘要

In this paper we present a model of spatial development of the Russian Federation and principles of integrating artificial agents into it. The model is agent-based and consists of several modules, representing demographic, economic, financial processes, employment and consumption, educational and administrative institutions. Acting subjects in the model are artificial agents presenting population of the Russian Federation, who are capable of individual decision making, interaction with each other and the environment. Social activity of the agents depends on their current living standard and level of discontent. To reproduce behavior of artificial agents we implement architecture Plan-Image, based on the cognitive model, proposed by D. Miller, J. Galenter and K. Pribram. Dynamics of the model of the Russian Federation spatial development is determined by behavior of agents within educational, employment and migration processes.
