We introduce a stochastic win-stay-lose-shift (WSLS) mechanism into evolutionary Prisoner’s Dilemma on small-world networks. At each time step, after playing with all its immediate neighbors, each individual gets a score to evaluate its performance in the game. The score is a linear combination of an individual’s total payoff (i.e., individual gain from the group) and local contribution to its neighbors (i.e., individual donation to the group). If one’s actual score is not larger than its desired score aspiration, it switches current strategy to the opposite one with the probability depending on the difference between the two scores. Under this stochastic WSLS regime, we assume that each focal individual gains its fixed score aspiration under the condition of full cooperation in its neighborhood, and find that cooperation is significantly enhanced under some certain parameters of the model by studying the evolution of cooperation. We also explore the influences of different values of learning rate and intensity of deterministic switch on the evolution of cooperation. Simulation results show that cooperation level monotonically increases with the relative weight of the local contribution to the score. For much low intensity of deterministic switch, cooperation is to a large extent independent of learning rate, and full cooperation can be reached when relative weight is not less than 0.5. Otherwise, cooperation level is affected by the value of learning rate. Besides, we find that the cooperation level is not sensitive to the topological parameters. To explain these simulation results, we provide corresponding analytical results based on mean-field approximation, and find out that simulation results are in close agreement with the analytical ones. Our work may be helpful in understanding the cooperative behavior in social systems based on this stochastic WSLS mechanism.  相似文献

Perc & Wang demonstrated that aspiring to be the fittest under conditions of pairwise strategy updating enhances network reciprocity in structured populations playing 2×2 Prisoner’s Dilemma games (Z. Wang, M. Perc, Aspiring to the fittest and promoted of cooperation in the Prisoner’s Dilemma game, Physical Review E 82 (2010) 021115; M. Perc, Z. Wang, Heterogeneous aspiration promotes cooperation in the Prisoner’s Dilemma game, PLOS one 5 (12) (2010) e15117). Through numerical simulations, this paper shows that network reciprocity is even greater if heterogeneous aspirations are imposed. We also suggest why heterogeneous aspiration fosters network reciprocity. It distributes strategy updating speed among agents in a manner that fortifies the initially allocated cooperators’ clusters against invasion. This finding prompted us to further enhance the usual heterogeneous aspiration cases for heterogeneous network topologies. We find that a negative correlation between degree and aspiration level does extend cooperation among heterogeneously structured agents.  相似文献

An analysis is made of the fluid-structure interactions involved in the production of voiced speech. It is usual to avoid time consuming numerical simulations of the aeroacoustics of the vocal tract and glottis by the introduction of Fant's ‘reduced complexity’ equation for the glottis volume velocity Q [G. Fant, Acoustic Theory of Speech Production, Mouton, The Hague 1960]. A systematic derivation is given of Fant's equation based on the nominally exact equations of aerodynamic sound. This can be done with a degree of approximation that depends only on the accuracy with which the time-varying flow geometry and surface-acoustic boundary conditions can be specified, and replaces Fant's original ‘lumped element’ heuristic approach. The method determines all of the effective ‘source terms’ governing Q. It is illustrated by consideration of a simplified model of the vocal system involving a self-sustaining single-mass model of the vocal folds, that uses free streamline theory to account for surface friction and flow separation within the glottis. Identification is made of a new source term associated with the unsteady vocal fold drag produced by their oscillatory motion transverse to the mean flow.  相似文献

Fluorescent signaling probes 3 and 4 in the integrated ‘fluorophore-receptor’ format have been synthesized by derivatization of ‘amino-alkyl-amino’ based receptors with 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole fluorophore for metal ion induced fluorescence recovery through perturbation of charge-transfer character of fluorophoric D(donor)−π−A(acceptor) segment. Among all the metal ions investigated, the ‘amino-ethyl-amino’ receptor based probe 3 exhibits fluorescence enhancement selectively in presence of Zn(II) ion, while the probe 4 with an structurally modified ‘amino-ethyl-oxy-(phenyl methyl)-amino’ based receptor exhibits fluorescence enhancement with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Ag(I). The chemo-selectivity of 3 towards Zn(II) ion fails in 4 due to a structural modification to receptor's framework.  相似文献

We introduce a technique of time series analysis, potential forecasting, which is based on dynamical propagation of the probability density of time series. We employ polynomial coefficients of the orthogonal approximation of the empirical probability distribution and extrapolate them in order to forecast the future probability distribution of data. The method is tested on artificial data, used for hindcasting observed climate data, and then applied to forecast Arctic sea-ice time series. The proposed methodology completes a framework for ‘potential analysis’ of tipping points which altogether serves anticipating, detecting and forecasting nonlinear changes including bifurcations using several independent techniques of time series analysis. Although being applied to climatological series in the present paper, the method is very general and can be used to forecast dynamics in time series of any origin.  相似文献

We propose an elimination mechanism in the study of the evolutionary prisoner’s dilemma games on evolving networks. It assumes that after each round of playing, players whose payoffs are below a certain threshold will be eliminated from the game and the same number of new nodes will be added to the network to maintain the size of the network constant. Numerical results show that moderate values of elimination threshold can result in a maximum cooperation level in the evolutionary prisoner’s dilemma game. Moreover, the elimination mechanism can make the network structure evolve into a high heterogeneity in degree distribution, which is considered to be helpful in promoting cooperation in evolutionary games. The present study may provide new insight for understanding the evolution of cooperation in light of the law ‘survival of the fittest’ in nature.  相似文献

Evolution of a two-level system (TLS) in a strong resonant quantum field is considered beyond the rotating wave approximation (RWA). An analytical expression for the atomic population inversion that approximates numerical results with high accuracy is deduced. It allows us to describe new qualitative peculiarities of the TLS evolution in the strong field: i) suppression of the ‘collapse-revival’ effect, and ii) change of the spectrum and form of the population oscillations.  相似文献

An interfacial approximation of the streamer stage in the evolution of sparks and lightning can be formulated as a Laplacian growth model regularized by a ‘kinetic undercooling’ boundary condition. Using this model we study both the linearized and the full nonlinear evolution of small perturbations of a uniformly translating circle. Within the linear approximation analytical and numerical results show that perturbations are advected to the back of the circle, where they decay. An initially analytic interface stays analytic for all finite times, but singularities from outside the physical region approach the interface for t, which results in some anomalous relaxation at the back of the circle. For the nonlinear evolution numerical results indicate that the circle is the asymptotic attractor for small perturbations, but larger perturbations may lead to branching. We also present results for more general initial shapes, which demonstrate that regularization by kinetic undercooling cannot guarantee smooth interfaces globally in time.  相似文献

A methodology was developed to analyze relation-based systems evolving in time by using the fundamental concepts of thermodynamics. The behavior of such systems can be tracked from the scattering matrix which is actually a network of directed vectors (or pathways) connecting subsequent values, which characterize an event, such as the index values in stock markets. A system behaves in a rigid (elastic) way to an external effect and resists permanent deformation, or it behaves in a viscous (or soft) way and deforms in an irreversible way. It was shown in the past that a formula derived using the slope of paths gives a measure about the extent of viscoelastic behavior of relation-based systems Gündüz (2009) [5] Gündüz and Gündüz (2010) [6]. In this research the ‘work’ associated with ‘elastic’ component, and ‘heat’ associated with ‘viscous’ component were discussed and elaborated. In a simple two subsequent pathway system in a scattering diagram the first vector represents ‘the cause’ and the second ‘the effect’. By using work and heat energy relations that involve force and also storage and loss modulus terms, respectively, one can calculate the energy involved in relation-based systems. The modulus values can be found from the parallel and vertical components of the second vector with respect to the first vector. Once work-like and heat-like terms were determined the internal energy is also easily found from their summation. The parallel and vertical components can also be used to calculate the magnitude of torque and torque energy in the system. Three cases, (i) the behavior of the NASDAQ-100 index, (ii) a social revolt, and (iii) the structure of a melody were analyzed for their ‘work-like’, ‘heat-like’, and ‘torque-like’ energies in the course of their evolution. NASDAQ-100 exhibits highly dissipative behavior, and its work terms are very small but heat terms are of large magnitude. Its internal energy highly fluctuates in time. In the social revolt studied work and heat terms are of comparable magnitude. The melody depicts highly organized structure, and usually has larger work terms than heat terms, but at some intervals heat terms burst out and attain very large magnitudes. Torque terms reach high values when the system is recovering from a minimum value.  相似文献

This paper investigates the adaptation of cooperating strategies in an iterated prisoner's dilemma (IPD) game with individually learning agents, subject to the structure of the interaction network. In particular, we study how cooperation or defection comes to dominate the population on Watts–Strogatz networks, under varying average path lengths. Our results are in good agreement with previous works on discrete choice dynamics on networks, but are in stark contrast with results from the evolution of cooperation literature. We argue that the latter is because the different adaptation method used (i.e., adaptive learning instead of ‘evolutionary’ strategy switching).  相似文献

The Prisoner’s Dilemma and Snowdrift games are the main theoretical constructs used to study the evolutionary dynamics of cooperation. In large, well-mixed populations, mean-field models predict a stable equilibrium abundance of all defectors in the Prisoner’s Dilemma and a stable mixed-equilibrium of cooperators and defectors in the Snowdrift game. In the spatial extensions of these games, which can greatly modify the fates of populations (including allowing cooperators to persist in the Prisoner’s Dilemma, for example), lattice models are typically used to represent space, individuals play only with their nearest neighbours, and strategy replacement is a function of the differences in payoffs between neighbours. Interestingly, certain values of the cost–benefit ratio of cooperation, coupled with particular spatial configurations of cooperators and defectors, can lead to ‘global standoffs’, a situation in which all cooperator–defector neighbours have identical payoffs, leading to the development of static spatial patterns. We start by investigating the conditions that can lead to ‘local standoffs’ (i.e., in which isolated pairs of neighbouring cooperators and defectors cannot overtake one another), and then use exhaustive searches of small square lattices (4×44×4 and 6×66×6) of degree k=3,k=4k=3,k=4, and k=6k=6, to show that two main types of global standoff patterns–‘periodic’ and ‘aperiodic’–are possible by tiling local standoffs across entire spatially structured populations. Of these two types, we argue that only aperiodic global standoffs are likely to be potentially attracting, i.e., capable of emerging spontaneously from non-standoff conditions. Finally, we use stochastic simulation models with comparatively large lattices (100×100100×100) to show that global standoffs in the Prisoner’s Dilemma and Snowdrift games do indeed only (but not always) emerge under the conditions predicted by the small-lattice analysis.  相似文献

In this paper we analyze the stochastic model proposed by Galam in [S. Galam, Modelling rumors: The no plane Pentagon French hoax case, Physica A 320 (2003), 571-580], for information spreading in a ‘word-of-mouth’ process among agents, based on a majority rule. Using the communications rules among agents defined in the above reference, we first perform simulations of the ‘word-of-mouth’ process and compare the results with the theoretical values predicted by Galam’s model. Some dissimilarities arise in particular when a small number of agents is considered. We find motivations for these dissimilarities and suggest some enhancements by introducing a new parameter dependent model. We propose a modified Galam’s scheme which is asymptotically coincident with the original model in the above reference. Furthermore, for relatively small values of the parameter, we provide a numerical experience proving that the modified model often outperforms the original one.  相似文献

The urban road network is a complex system that exhibits the properties of self-organization and emergence. Recent theoretical and empirical studies have mainly focused on the structural properties of the urban road networks. This research concentrates on some important parameters such as degree, average degree, meshedness coefficient, betweeness, etc. These parameters of the real road network exhibit specific statistical properties. Some studies show that perhaps these specific statistical properties are caused by a compromise mechanism of the formation of a minimum spanning tree and the greedy triangulation. Inspired by these results, we propose a principle to construct the network (we call it a MG network in this paper) whose structure is located between the minimum spanning tree and the greedy triangulation at first. The structural properties of the MG network are analyzed. We find the formation mechanism of the MG network cannot explain the urban road network evolution well. Then, based on the formation mechanism of the MG network, we add the ‘direction preferred connection’ and ‘degree constraint’ principles to the urban road network evolution simulation process. The result of the simulation network turns out to be a planar network that is in accordance with reality. Compared with the real road network’s structural properties, we find the simulation results are so consistent with it. It indicates the validation of the model and also demonstrates perhaps the ‘direction preferred connection’ and ‘degree constraint’ principle can explain the urban road network evolution better.  相似文献

We show that the timing properties of a pulsed low-energy positron lifetime beam can be conveniently tested by an electron beam. We apply this method to study the time resolution of the beam and electron scattering in flat and ‘sawtooth’ shaped choppers. The results show that (i) time resolution of 160 ps is obtained, (ii) the scattering of the electrons and the secondary electron yield of the flat chopper make the time resolution worse and background poor, and (iii) both these problems can be solved by using a ‘sawtooth’ shaped chopper. We also compare these results to beam simulations.  相似文献

Virtual crystal approximation is adapted to address peculiarities of propagation of acoustic waves through a 1D ‘sandwich’ superstructure consisting of alternating layers of two types randomly substituted by foreign layers of the third type. Same-parity layers are of the same width and constitute a sublattice. Dependence of the lowest forbidden acoustic zone width of the described structure on concentrations of impurity layers in the two sublattices is numerically evaluated for longitudinal and transverse excitations. Values of substitute concentrations making the structure completely transparent prove to be independent of the relative widths of the 1st and 2nd type layers.  相似文献

The hierarchically constrained kinetic Ising model in one dimension is reviewed, and the results of several analytical approaches to the model are presented. Two standard approximation schemes, an effective-medium approximation and a mode-coupling approximation, are shown to fail. A new class of approximations, termed cluster approximations, is better suited for the model. It yields good results for the spin autocorrelation function, and also elucidates important general properties of the model—its connection with defect-diffusion models and the asymptotic long-time behavior of the autocorrelation function.  相似文献

A toy model is proposed in which the cosmological constant and the baryon number density of the Universe are interrelated. The model combines the mechanism of Dimopoulos and Susskind [S. Dimopoulos, L. Susskind, Phys. Rev. D 18 (1978) 4500] in which the baryon number density of the Universe is generated by the time-dependence of the phase of a complex scalar field, i.e. its ‘angular momentum’ in the two-dimensional complex field space, with that of Yoshimura [M. Yoshimura, Phys. Lett. B 608 (2005) 183, hep-ph/0410183] in which the ‘centrifugal force’ due to the ‘angular momentum’ pushes the vacuum expectation value of the scalar field out of a negative potential minimum and provides a small but positive cosmological constant. Unfortunately, our model fails to relate the smallness of the two numbers directly, requiring a fine-tuning of the negative potential minimum.  相似文献

At singular points of a wave field, where the amplitude vanishes, the phase may become singular and wavefront dislocation may occur. In this Letter we investigate for wave fields in one spatial dimension the appearance of these essentially linear phenomena. We introduce the Chu-Mei quotient as it is known to appear in the ‘nonlinear dispersion relation’ for wave groups as a consequence of the nonlinear transformation of the complex amplitude to real phase-amplitude variables. We show that unboundedness of this quotient at a singular point, related to unboundedness of the local wavenumber and frequency, is a generic property and that it is necessary for the occurrence of phase singularity and wavefront dislocation, while these phenomena are generic too. We also show that the ‘soliton on finite background’, an explicit solution of the NLS equation and a model for modulational instability leading to extreme waves, possesses wavefront dislocations and unboundedness of the Chu-Mei quotient.  相似文献

The response of two general spring-coupled elements is investigated to develop a unifying approach to the weak coupling criterion in Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA). First, the coupled deterministic equations of motion are expressed in the bases given by the uncoupled elements’ eigenmodes. Then, an iterative solution is expressed as a succession of exchanges between elements, where uncoupled motion provides the start approximation, converging if the ‘coupling eigenvalue’ is less than unity, in which case coupling is said to be weak. This definition is related to whether response is ‘local’ or ‘global’, encompassing a number of previously defined coupling strength definitions, applying for deterministically described structures. A stochastic ensemble is defined by that its members are equal to the investigated structure but the elements have random frequencies. It is required that the coupling eigenvalue be less than unity for all members of the ensemble. This requirement generates the title subject of the article: ‘the modal interaction strength’. It is similar to the previously defined coupling strength criterion characterising the ensemble average energy flow in uni-dimensional waveguides. Finally, SEA models are formulated in terms of the uncoupled elements’ modal data.  相似文献
