Abstract

Competing agents in the evolving minority game has been shown to self-segregate and cluster depending on the prize-to-fine ratio. This raises the question of whether this behavior is due to the competitive nature of the model. We show a different model where the focus is on the individual agent and place it in situations where it must make a choice between two resources wherein the success, instead of depending on the decisions of other agents, hinges on the current conditions of the environment it is exposed to. In this paper we demonstrate that self-segregation and clustering is not a direct consequence of competition but rather that of the milieu in which the choice is based upon.
