Dynamics of Crowd-Minds: Patterns of Irrationality in by Andrew Adamatzky

By Andrew Adamatzky

A crowd-mind emerges whilst formation of a crowd explanations fusion of person minds into one collective brain. individuals of the gang lose their individuality. The deindividuation results in derationalization: emotional, impulsive and irrational habit, self-catalytic actions, reminiscence impairment, perceptual distortion, hyper-responsiveness, and distortion of conventional kinds and buildings. This ebook provides targeted result of computational stories on cognitive and affective space-time approaches in large-scale collectives of summary brokers being faraway from psychological equilibrium. Computational experiments show that the irrational and nonsensical habit of person entities of crowd-mind leads to advanced, wealthy and non-trivial spatio-temporal dynamics of the agent collectives. Mathematical equipment hire thought and strategies of cellular-automata and lattice swarms, utilized algebra, concept of finite automata and Markov chains, and user-friendly differential equations.

G. [Amelie (1980); French and Wettstein (1999); Hillman (1992); Izard et. al (1998); Kenny (1994); Lewis and Haviland-Jones (2000); Lyons (1980)] to name but few. Alternative Patterns of Affect 49 constructs of emotions can be found in [Marchant (1999)], where logical representations of emotions are derived from combinations of actions and appraisals. Most of the published works stick closely to the classical St. Augustine's representation: "Love, then, yearning to have what is loved, is desire; and having and enjoying it, is joy;fleeingwhat is opposed to it, it is fear; and feeling what is opposed to it, when it has befallen it, it is sadness" [Saint Augustine (2000)].

Both happy and angry persons become confused when they meet one another. When sadness interacts with confusion the sadness is transformed to anger but the confusion remains unchanged. The sadness composed with sadness may also produce sadness, for example "... " [Dumas (1998b)]. " [Saint Augustine (2002)].

The initial configuration features a random distribution of happiness, anger and sadness, n — 80, t = 25. Happiness is •, anger is o and sadness is x. Time arrows downward. Affective solutions governed by reactions 8, 9, 13, 16 and 17 of the set {A, C, S} show an auto-catalytic growth of sadness (unless kn = 0), and a decline in anger; confusion reaches a stationary concentration meanwhile. Happiness ist never generated in the entire reaction scheme; the happiness either dissociates into other reactants or acts as a catalyst.
