Here you will find an evolving list of researchers around the world who do agent-based modeling or related work. This list is intended as a resource for those interested in discovering people doing interesting research in ABM or related fields in different disciplines. Where ever possible, I try to link a picture of the person, which is directly linked to their website.

Alessandro Lazaric



Alessandro Lazaric’s research activity is mainly focused on Reinforcement Learning (RL) and On-line Learning. During my PhD h studied many topics, from function approximation to exploration and he tried to apply RL to different robotic applications both in simulation and with real robots. At the same time, he investigated what happens when RL techniques are applied to multiagent systems both in cooperative and competitive settings. His PhD thesis focused on the problem of transfer of knowledge in RL. As a post-doc at INRIA he is working on on-line learning and multi-task learning.

Robert J. Lempert’s research focuses on improving methods for long-term policy analysis and for using data and models to support decisionmaking where accurate forecasts are impossible. He is leading a major National Science Foundation–funded study that aims to improve methods for using scientific and other information to support decisions about climate change. He has worked extensively in the areas of environment, energy, and national security strategies; and he has conducted research on science and technology investment strategies for clients that include the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, the U.S. Department of Energy, the National Science Foundation, and several multinational firms.
