Develops methods to create consistent surrogate models for agent-based simulators.

problem High computational costs and misjudgment of interventions in agent-based models.
method Causal abstractions to learn interventionally consistent surrogate models.
result Surrogates trained for interventional consistency closely mimic the agent-based model's behavior under interventions.

Agent-based modeling is a powerful simulation technique to understand the collective behavior and microscopic interaction in complex financial systems. Recently, the concept for determining the key parameters of the agent-based models from empirical data instead of setting them artificially was suggested. We first revi…

The existence of stylized facts in financial data has been documented in many studies. In the past decade the modeling of financial markets by agent-based computational economic market models has become a frequently used modeling approach. The main purpose of these models is to replicate stylized facts and to identify …

Paper uses agent-based simulation to identify investor types in financial markets.

problem Identifying investor types in real financial markets.
method Computational adaptation of PCA with agent-based simulation.
result A reduced set of investor models can approximate financial time series.

Designing a financial market that works well is very important for developing and maintaining an advanced economy, but is not easy because changing detailed rules, even ones that seem trivial, sometimes causes unexpected large impacts and side effects. A computer simulation using an agent-based model can directly treat…

We propose a Markov jump process with the three-state herding interaction. We see our approach as an agent-based model for the financial markets. Under certain assumptions this agent-based model can be related to the stochastic description exhibiting sophisticated statistical features. Along with power-law probability …

We present an overview of some representative Agent-Based Models in Economics. We discuss why and how agent-based models represent an important step in order to explain the dynamics and the statistical properties of financial markets beyond the Classical Theory of Economics. We perform a schematic analysis of several m…

A simple learning agent learns to trade in an agent-based market model.

problem Optimal execution of trades in an agent-based financial market model.
method Asynchronous trading through a matching engine, varying initial order sizes and state spaces, calibration of empirical stylized facts and price impact curves.
result Smaller state space agents converge faster in learning and can trade intuitively using spread and volume states.

Agent-based model simulates speculative electronic market with price bubbles.

problem Understanding speculative behavior and price bubbles in electronic markets.
method Agent-based model with two types of traders: mean reverting and speculative.
result Speculative traders lead to increased volatility and price deviations from fundamental value.

We present a simple, yet realistic, agent-based model of an electricity market. The proposed model combines the spot and balancing markets with a resolution of one minute, which enables a more accurate depiction of the physical properties of the power grid. As a test, we compare the results obtained from our simulation…

method Agent-based modelling approach with calibrated high-frequency financial simulator.
result Model accurately reproduces historical flash crash events and identifies key factors.

Develops a generic two-layer framework for adaptive ABMs.

problem Bi-level adaptation problem in ABMs: agents adapt to environment, and environment adapts to agents.
method Formalizes bi-level problem as a Stackelberg game with conditional policies, solving coupled non-linear equations.
result Unified framework for adaptive ABMs, addressing traditional ABM limitations.

Based on criteria of mathematical simplicity and consistency with empirical market data, a model with volatility driven by fractional noise has been constructed which provides a fairly accurate mathematical parametrization of the data. Here, some features of the model are discussed and, using agent-based models, one tr…

The three-state agent-based 2D model of financial markets as proposed by Giulia Iori has been extended by introducing increasing trust in the correctly predicting agents, a more realistic consultation procedure as well as a formal validation mechanism. This paper shows that such a model correctly reproduces the three f…

Model shows how traders' interactions can create market patterns.

problem Explaining stylized facts in high-frequency trading markets.
method Agent-based model of limit order book trading with zero-intelligence agents.
result Scale-free connectivity between traders reproduces market patterns, while no interaction does not.

Improved ABFMs capture market complexities, aiding policy decisions.

problem Limited usefulness of current ABFMs due to missing microstructure and agent behaviors.
method Developed ABMMS with realistic market structure, communication, and auction mechanisms; populated with adaptive agents.
result Generated data from ABMMS more accurately reflects real market phenomena.

This work develops an agent-based model for the study of how the leverage through the use of repurchase agreements can function as a mechanism for the propagation and amplification of financial shocks in a financial system. Based on the analysis of financial intermediaries in the repo and interbank lending markets duri…

method Agent-based model with hierarchical influence network.
result Model accurately simulates real-world financial market behaviors.

Interest in agent-based models of financial markets and the wider economy has increased consistently over the last few decades, in no small part due to their ability to reproduce a number of empirically-observed stylised facts that are not easily recovered by more traditional modelling approaches. Nevertheless, the age…
