Agent-based post-hoc correction of agricultural yield forecasts.
Beddows M, Durrant A, Leontidis G.
Front Artif Intell. 2026 Sep 17;9:1911884. doi: 10.3389/frai.2026.1911884. eCollection 2026.
Even when provided with recent historical observations, existing forecasting models exhibit systematic, season-specific errors that growers can readily identify but that the models have no mechanism to self-correct. …LLaVA 13B showed inconsistent gains, highlighti …
Agent-based models in dietary behaviour: a scoping review.
Dai X, Prestwich A, Craig T, Warren L, Sheng Y, Malleson N, Ge J.
Health Psychol Rev. 2026 Oct 2:1-22. doi: 10.1080/17437199.2026.2740058. Online ahead of print.
Agent-Based Modelling (ABM) simulates complex systems characterised by individual interactions and decision-making, making it valuable for studying dietary behaviour. …Three notable limitations were identified: 1) relatively few (11/30) studies explicitly a …
Transient morphogenetic constraints organize self-assembling axon neighborhoods for robust yet flexible wiring.
Brittin C, Santella A, Barnes KM, Moyle M, Fan L, Christensen R, Kolotuev I, Mohler W, Shroff H, Colón-Ramos D, Bao Z.
bioRxiv [Preprint]. 2026 Sep 12:2026.09.09.750528. doi: 10.64898/2026.09.09.750528.
This demonstrates how early events constrain wiring choices, but not whether they explain the resulting reproducibility. To explain, we use an agent-based model of stochastic innervation that recapitulates macro- and micro-level reproducibility, revealing a t …
Contractile to extensile transitions and mechanical adaptability enabled by activity in cytoskeletal structures.
Lamtyugina A, Banerjee DS, Qiu Y, Vaikuntanathan S.
bioRxiv [Preprint]. 2026 Sep 10:2024.02.22.581411. doi: 10.1101/2024.02.22.581411.
In this study, we investigate how self-assembled cytoskeletal structures respond to external mechanical perturbations, focusing on filament and crosslinker mixtures in two dimensions. Using agent-based models complemented by coarse-grained thermodynamic analy …
Impact of Digital Contact Tracing and Other Nonpharmaceutical Interventions on Pandemic Control: Microlevel, Behavior-Driven Agent-Based Model Analysis.
Lopera Gonzalez LI, Köber G, Kirchner G, Benzler J, Amft O.
J Med Internet Res. 2026 Sep 30;28:e87527. doi: 10.2196/87527.
METHODS: We disentangle the efficacy of individual NPIs, including DCT, with a novel microlevel, behavior-driven agent-based model (ABM) that simulates individual human behavior to analyze the effectiveness of nonpharmaceutical interventions on airborne patho …
How accurate are effective reproduction number estimates for mosquito-borne diseases in urban settings?
Lim PLJ, Lim JT, Cook AR.
J R Soc Interface. 2026 Sep 30;23(242):20251184. doi: 10.1098/rsif.2025.1184.
We systematically evaluated the accuracy of popular Rt estimation tools, EpiEstim and EpiFilter, against ground truth transmission pair data generated by agent-based simulations of dengue epidemics involving humans and mosquitoes in Singapore. …
Spatial modelling of NOTCH signalling predicts tuneable dynamic heterogeneity in endothelia.
Chesnais F, Hue J, Sego TJ, Engstler E, Battilocchi M, Danovi D, Glazier JA, Veschini L.
NPJ Syst Biol Appl. 2026 Jul 23;12(1):142. doi: 10.1038/s41540-026-00786-0.
Here, we developed a computational-experimental framework linking core NOTCH dynamics to emergent EC heterogeneity in space and time. We built an agent-based model of NOTCH signalling incorporating lateral inhibition, lateral induction, cis interactions, and …
A Comprehensive Review of Agent-Based Methodologies and Applications in Cell Biology.
Nooraeen A, Mohammadkhah M, Klinge S.
Prog Biophys Mol Biol. 2026 Sep 28:101957. doi: 10.1016/j.pbiomolbio.2026.101957. Online ahead of print.
The need to understand the emergent properties of complex biological systems requires computational frameworks that can bridge the gap from stochastic molecular events to tissue-level macroscopic responses. Agent-Based Modeling (ABM) has proven to be an effec …
Reasoning-Driven Design of Single-Atom Catalysts via a Multiagent Large Language Model Framework.
