A model of agents (robots) command behavior: The cognitive approach

Abstract

The paper suggests a mathematical model of agents’ cooperation in dynamics, which employs agents’ utility functions and cognitive dissonance of their relations. The model is based on the theories of social psychologists investigating the behavior of people in small social groups and explaining the principles of their functioning and stability. We illustrate the suggested model via simulation of virtual soccer game of agents (robots). The performed simulation allows to model diverse aspects of agents’ cooperation and selfish behavior.
