dc.description.abstract | Agent-based modeling has become increasingly popular in recent decades; however, defining agents that accurately depict human behavior remains a significant challenge. This paper contributes to the precise definition of human-like agents by incorporating learning and forgetting processes from the medical and psychological literature into agent-based simulation models. Specifically, the mathematical model for forgetting is developed to be compatible with empirical findings. The empirical evidence also supports the decomposition of the learning process into training sessions and the application of skills in real situations, as followed in this model. The resulting model of learning agents is then applied to study police intervention in out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. In numerous urban areas, there's ongoing discussion regarding the provision of defibrillators in patrol cars and CPR training for police officers. The results demonstrate that including learning and forgetting processes in simulation models provide a more accurate understanding of the benefits of using local police to attend cardiac arrests. | en |
