Evidential reasoning based on imitation and aspiration information in strategy learning promotes cooperation in optional spatial public goods game

Willingness intensity and co-evolution of decision rationality depending on aspiration enhance cooperation in the spatial public goods game

“…However, the advantage will be reduced with enhancement factor r. Thus, appropriate ambition can promote cooperation under the WSLS rule. In the IM and WSLS rules, improving the enhancement factor is not conducive to cooperation, which is different from the conclusions of previous studies [57,58]. We also found that the promotion effect of IM on cooperation is more effective than that of WSLS under high aspiration.…”

Impact of reputation-based switching strategy between punishment and social exclusion on the evolution of cooperation in the spatial public goods game

“…The public goods game (PGG) is one of the paradigms used to explore cooperative behaviors in multi-player interactions [11]. Many mechanisms based on PGG to promote the evolution of cooperative behaviors have been proposed [10,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Recently, the evolutionary dynamics of PGG in social systems with higher-order interactions and its effects on the evolution of cooperation have also been explored [19].…”

How to evaluate one's behavior toward ‘bad’ individuals? Exploring good social norms in promoting cooperation in spatial public goods games

“…Statistical physics provides a powerful tool in this direction [15,16]. Along this line of research, many micromechanisms for promoting cooperation have been proposed, such as introducing reward and punishment [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27], social exclusion [28][29][30][31][32][33][34], considering individual or group heterogeneity [35][36][37][38][39], intelligent learning [40][41][42][43], and so on. Essentially, these mechanisms change the payoff structure of strategies or the rules of strategy updating.…”
