Abstract

Social conventions are important for establishing and maintaining coordination in groups of agents, especially where there is no centralised control. As individuals interact, learn, and update their strategies, effective coordination can be achieved through the emergence of suitable conventions. In this paper we (i) show how the structure of a population affects convention emergence, (ii) demonstrate how fixed strategy agents can manipulate emergence, and (iii) evaluate strategies for inserting fixed strategy agents.
