This work presents a novel Bayesian Optimal Experiment Design Selection principle for generalised parameter distributions. The generalization is achieved by extending the β-information gain to the discrete distributions. The β-information gain is based on what is known as the Bhattacharyya coefficient.

Through ‘social learning’, ideas and behaviours can spread quickly through our social networks. Previously, researchers have mainly described these social networks using ‘dyadic’ approaches that only consider connections between pairs of individuals at a time. The authors classify different ways that social learning occurs in groups and provide a list of and mathematical formulae for many potential rules for how knowledge is exchanged in these contexts.

Schelling’s model of segregation demonstrated that segregation can develop even with a relatively low level of intolerance among agents. Many researchers have built upon this seminal model, yet few subsequent models have incorporated an adaptive tolerance

Disease-induced mortality and immunity are two key pathogen-specific drivers of epidemiological dynamics. As highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, disease-induced mortality can occur not only during active infection, but also following recovery during a period of immunity or after returning to susceptibility.

Repeated games have been used to analyze the rational decision-making of multiple agents in a long-term interdependent relationship. Recently, a class of autocratic strategies, called zero-determinant strategies, was discovered in repeated games, which unilaterally controls payoffs of players via enforcing linear relations between payoffs.
