Description
Readings:
- Friedman, Daniel. "On economic applications of evolutionary game theory." Journal of Evolutionary Economics 8.1 (1998): 15-43.
- Whitley, Darrell. “A Genetic Algorithm Tutorial.” (http://cobweb.cs.uga.edu/~potter/CompIntell/ga_tutorial.pdf)
Discussion Questions:
- What is an evolutionary game, and what do you have to define to set one up?
- How are evolutionary games useful for studying economics?
- Genetic algorithms are very efficient at finding the best solution within a set of constraints. What does this mean within the economy? Can we find them "in the wild"?
