Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has been considered that the social learning where agents get information from the behaviors and choices of other agents is the most important factor in the description and the understanding of social and economical phenomena. We have controlled the uncertainty of the information of human collectives in an information cascade experiment and showed that there occurs a phase transition of non-linear Polya urn. Theoretically, we clarify when the phase transition becomes continuous or discontinuous and the universality class of the former continuous one. Furthermore, we study several ideas how to increase the accuracy of collective intelligence in information cascade.
