Dynamics of an SEIR model with media coverage mediated nonlinear infectious force
Media coverage can greatly impact the spread of infectious diseases. Taking into consideration the impacts of media coverage, we propose an SEIR model with a media coverage mediated nonlinear infection force. For this novel disease model, we identify the basic reproduction number using the next generation matrix method and establish the global threshold results: If the basic reproduction number \mathcal{R}_{0} < 1 , then the disease-free equilibrium is stable, and the disease dies out. If \mathcal{R}_{0} > 1 , then the endemic equilibrium is stable, and the disease persists. Sensitivity analysis indicates that the basic reproduction number is most sensitive to the population recruitment rate and the disease transmission rate
Self-Similar Random Process and Chaotic Behavior In Serrated Flow of High Entropy Alloys
The statistical and dynamic analyses of the serrated-flow behavior in the nanoindentation of a high-entropy alloy, Al0.5CoCrCuFeNi, at various holding times and temperatures, are performed to reveal the hidden order associated with the seemingly-irregular intermittent flow. Two distinct types of dynamics are identified in the high-entropy alloy, which are based on the chaotic time-series, approximate entropy, fractal dimension, and Hurst exponent. The dynamic plastic behavior at both room temperature and 200 °C exhibits a positive Lyapunov exponent, suggesting that the underlying dynamics is chaotic. The fractal dimension of the indentation depth increases with the increase of temperature, and there is an inflection at the holding time of 10 s at the same temperature. A large fractal dimension suggests the concurrent nucleation of a large number of slip bands. In particular, for the indentation with the holding time of 10 s at room temperature, the slip process evolves as a self-similar random process with a weak negative correlation similar to a random walk
SurrealDriver: Designing Generative Driver Agent Simulation Framework in Urban Contexts based on Large Language Model
Simulation plays a critical role in the research and development of
autonomous driving and intelligent transportation systems. However, the current
simulation platforms exhibit limitations in the realism and diversity of agent
behaviors, which impede the transfer of simulation outcomes to the real world.
In this paper, we propose a generative driver agent simulation framework based
on large language models (LLMs), capable of perceiving complex traffic
scenarios and providing realistic driving maneuvers. Notably, we conducted
interviews with 24 drivers and used their detailed descriptions of driving
behavior as chain-of-thought prompts to develop a `coach agent' module, which
can evaluate and assist driver agents in accumulating driving experience and
developing human-like driving styles. Through practical simulation experiments
and user experiments, we validate the feasibility of this framework in
generating reliable driver agents and analyze the roles of each module. The
results show that the framework with full architect decreased the collision
rate by 81.04% and increased the human-likeness by 50%. Our research proposes
the first urban context driver agent simulation framework based on LLMs and
provides valuable insights into the future of agent simulation for complex
tasks.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figure
