Student Information for Hirshman, Brian
Name: Hirshman, Brian
Email: hirshman[AT]cs.cmu.edu
Research Keywords: dynamic network analysis, agent based modeling, cognitive processes, Construct
Affiliation: CASOS
Research: I work with the Construct simulation tool to examine agent decision making in a social network environment. Most of my work deals with understanding how interventions -- or external changes -- to a social network affects individual and group decision making. My past work has focused on examining the effect of using suites of interventions on social networks, then seeking to understand the interaction effects among these intervention. I have a keen interest in the cognitive abilities of the agents to perceive their surroundings and to make changes in response to these interventions. I hope to explore this topic over the course of the coming year.
