The latest outputs from researchers, alumni and friends at the UCL Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis (CASA).
We published quite a high profile paper this week in The Lancet Infectious Diseases. Anders Johansson, myself and colleagues wrote a speculative paper on how to generalise the dynamics of SIR (spatial epidemics) models from pedestrian crowding models as part … Continue reading →
Continue reading »Anders Johansson, Mike Batty and colleagues’ paper in The Lancet Infectious Diseases is published online today. There they are exploring how models for simulating crowds can be extended to deal with the spread of infectious diseases in high density environments. …
Continue reading »Five sessions of 2 hours duration each, divided into nine lectures. It will introduce models, the ideas and their relationship to theory, science and practical problem solving. It will begin with spatial interaction, move to integrated land use transport models, … Continue reading →
Continue reading »Nice movie of traffic moving and link volumes in Milton Keynes by Joan Serras working on our SCALE project. Notice the peak and the fact that as is quite usual for such traffic, the morning peak is more accentuated than …
Continue reading »Provides a complete reference guide for understanding how to apply ABM to geographical systems Presents the latest ideas and applications using ABM Addresses the issue of applying ABM in a spatial context. This unique book brings together a comprehensive set of papers on …
Continue reading »Tweet Geosimulation is the term first used for modelling geospatial systems by Benenson and Torrens where the models in question focus on agents, objects, cells and patterns. Marceau & Benenson present a snapshot of the state of the art in … Continue reading →
Continue reading »Tweet Andrew Crooks notes the work of Doyne Farmer with Rob Axtell on ABMs for housing markets which pointed to an article by Rob on Why Agents? More on these ideas in our edited book Agent-Based Models of Geographical Systems published by … Continue reading →
Continue reading »Following on from a previous post on traffic modeling with agent-based models, I have been thinking of other work in this area and came across the following movies on Youtube. The first is a traffic simulator from Martin Treiber. What is interesting …
