Computational model of social interaction in multiagent simulation based on personality traits

This paper presents model of social interaction in multi-agent simulation on the basis of the model of personality traits. The goal of this study is to investigate behavioral movement in architectural design simulation. Personality traits used in this model influence behavioral movements of the agents toward group formation. We modeled force of attraction and force of repulsion as key drivers for such purpose. The force of attraction and the force of repulsion depend on the level of Extraversion trait to represent the dynamic characteristic of personal distance. The model of intension for group formation is by means of social interaction level which depends on Agreeableness trait. Experiments showed implementation of these models in multi agent simulation using basic detection method on movement and direction. As result, the personality traits-driven model can provide heterogeneity and flexibility for social interaction that demonstrate human behavioral movements.
