contents InventSim: An Agent-Based Model of Product Invention Anthony Brabazon Arlindo Silva Tiago Ferra de Sousa Ingeniería Product invention Search heuristics Agent based modelling This study develops an agent based simulation model (InventSim) of the process of product invention.Invention is conceptualised as a search on a landscape of product design possibilities, by a population of payoff-seeking agents (inventors). The agents employ a set of search heuristics in searching this landscapewhich embed individual & social learning, and expectations of future payoffs to proposed product inventions.In the simulation, agents compete for payoffs and co-evolve based on each other’s actions. The simulationexperiments examine the impact of agent’s search heuristics on the societal rate of inventive progress. The results indicate that the forward-looking heuristics of election and thought-experiments are crucial in driving forward the inventive process, even when payoff expectations for proposed product inventions are noisy 2005 artículo científico 1137-3601 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=92592810 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=925 Inteligencia Artificial.
