Role-playing games as a mean to validate agent-based models: an application to stakeholder-driven urban freight transport policy-making

Di |2024-12-05T20:52:18+00:00Dicembre 5th, 2024|

Role-playing games as a mean to validate agent-based models: an application to stakeholder-driven urban freight transport policy-making Agent-based models (ABMs) are widely used to replicate transport environments accounting for interaction among stakeholders. Validation of ABMs implies assessing the extent to which the model, from assumptions to results, is capable of approximating reality. To this end, [...]
