Abstract
Economic models based on multi-agents are increasingly attracting attention and can provide a new perspective for exploring the causes behind social phenomena at the individual level. Existing research usually adopts society-level learning methods, and more research on micro-level heterogeneity among individuals is needed. For this, we propose a high-fidelity multi-agent economy (HMAE) model based on evolutionary game theory, including three types of agents: workers, firms, and the government. In particular, we characterize worker heterogeneity regarding laziness factors, work endowments, and commuting distances. These agents continuously and iteratively update their strategies by randomly exploring and imitating their neighbors to maximize their utility value. We simulated the evolution process of agent behavioral decisions through experiments and found that individual heterogeneity can significantly affect the decisions of workers and firms. These phenomena are consistent with some economic evolution trends in real life, and our research can provide an analytical tool for analyzing the causes of emerging economic phenomena.
