Academic Achievements
- - Conference Paper: Zou, P., & Siebers, P.-O. (2025) 'StockMARL: A novel multi-agent reinforcement learning system to dynamically improve trading strategies'
- - Conference Paper: Vanhée, L., Borit, M., Siebers, P.-O. et al. (2025) 'Large language models for agent-based modelling: Current and possible uses across the modelling cycle'
- - Extended Abstract: Piricz, N., Siebers, P. O., & Snape, R. (2025) 'Smart grids and market dynamics in national electricity networks: A comparative analysis of the UK and Hungary'
Research Experience
- His current research primarily focuses on three areas:
- - Methodological frontier: Advancing model development strategies for ABM through the EABSS toolkit.
- - Practical frontier: Looking at novel uses of simulation for studying Urban Sustainability (including Smart Cities and Smart Roads), modelling Human Behaviour in Floods using ABM and Virtual Reality, and modelling people's wellbeing at local and global scale.
- - Generative AI frontier: Exploring the use of Large Language Models to support and advance agent-based model design and implementation.
Background
- His main research topic is the application of Computer Simulation and Artificial Intelligence to study human-centric and coupled human-natural complex adaptive systems. He is a strong advocate of using Co-Creation for object-oriented Agent-Based Modelling (ABM). This highly interdisciplinary research agenda involves disciplines like Social Science, Economics, Marketing, Psychology, Geography, Operations Research, and Computer Science.
Miscellany
- - Launched a new 'Misc Blog' on his website, for content that doesn't fit into his other two blogs but is still worth sharing.
- - Found the source code from his first attempt at developing genetic algorithm applications, dating back to 1996. The project is a Factory Layout Optimiser.
- - Created his first website in 1999 to document the history of 'Octopush'.
- - Launched a new 'ABM Blog' on his website, intended as a space for sharing news, discussions, and information related to his research.
