Stochastic Modeling, Prey-Predator, Lotka-Volterra, Multiagent SystemAbstract
In this work, the modeling of a simple ecosystem of prey and predators is presented, through a multi-agent system where each individual of a species is characterized as a circle of a certain radius and mass that moves with a constant speed in a finite plane universe. The interactions between agents are characterized by the overlapping of areas of each agent during their displacements. This model not only allows adjusting conditions that show a coupled oscillatory temporal evolution of the populations, typical of the different solutions to the Lotka-Volterra equation, but also generates monitoring of variables of ecosystem interest such as the spatial distribution of agents or the density of biomass.
