Hi @Iris @olivia , i'm really interested by all your work ! I have one question and perhaps you have some bibliography in head to help me ? As a quantitative geographer/computer scientist i make #netlogo Agent Based Model simulation that need co-construction of models in an interdisciplinary context. The #abduction concept of #CharlesSandersPeirce is regulary cited as a way to express the new/original hypothesis that appear when you confront part of our mental model (based on empirical fact) of the world with outputs of this same reconstructed world into simulation.

Because i'm really interested by these links between the empirical world, the conceptual world, and the simulated world (as stated into Fig1 of https://shs.cairn.info/revue-francaise-de-sociologie-2014-4-page-689?lang=fr) do you know if there are some recent state of the art in Cognitive Science that cite CS Peirce works on abduction, linked to our everyday mental modeling process as scientist ?

Edit 1 : I found that you talk about Abduction in one of your article _Theory Before the Test: How to Build High-Verisimilitude Explanatory Theories in Psychological Science_ (Inference Best Explanation), and i also see on Standford (https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/abduction/) that Abduction exist in two flavor, to "justifying" or "generating" hypothesis.

We have also mobiliize the concept of "equifinality" to formalize the fact that it exist multiple way to generate the same phenomenon (for example in archeology, Luke S Premo write about this, but we have the equivalent in geography). But when we modelize with archeologist, they don't have an infinity of hypothesis to test. So we understand abduction operation during building simulation as a way to confront these hypothesis. Because we cannot state that hypothesis is totally wrong, we started to build "familly of models" to encapsulate and sediment structured knowledge (An exemple of this approach in geography using Agent Based Models : https://www.mdpi.com/2079-8954/3/4/348 , also developped as Reusable Building Block in this paper https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1364815224000641)

Thanks !

I made a little bean counting model in #NetLogo to illustrate a point about sampling. If it may be of use to anyone, you can find it at http://schurch.ento.vt.edu/bean_counting.nlogo

The picture shows the NetLogo interface, with buttons, sliders and monitors on the left, and the simulated world on the right. The world area shows dark and light beans strewn across the whole area.

Online intensive course for advanced Agent-Based Modelling using NetLogo from 3 to 7 March this year:

Deadline for registration: 24 February
There's also a student discount for the course fee.

@ksaj @nuxi @amszmidt Thanks for reminding me of #netlogo ! I installed it sometime ago to play with a "Dark Forest" model [1] (cf. #LiuCixin #ThreeBodyProblem trilogy). I did not look into it any further and thoroughly missed looking at NetLogo3D. The demos are really pretty cool!

Le #RuralArtSystem commence mardi prochain à #TerreBlanque .

Le #ras2024 est un camp de vacances optimisé par le collectif #interhack pour mettre en œuvre la #technofutilité, avec du #netlogo, du #livecoding, de la #pizza, une #kinect, une antenne #Priezor, et plein d'autres choses qui clignotent et qui font #beep !

Working on a port of a #NetLogo sim into #LiSE

These intricate patterns are generated by three turtles associated with the RGB components of natural light over a 4- day time frame. Each second, the red, green and blue components of the light are used to turn the corresponding turtle right, which then moves a bit.

I decided to finally create a github repository for the #netlogo agent-based models that I use in my #sociology courses at @utrechtuniversity

Dipping my toes in #NetLogo.

#preprint We have a new #ABM called NormAN (for ‘Normative Argument Exchange Across Networks’) which we hope will help build bridges between research on #OpinionDynamics and #Argumentation research.

It captures the exchange of arguments by #Bayesian agents in a ground truth world based on a #CausalGraph. Code is #Netlogo with #R (netlogo python coming soon).

Take it for a spin!
