Subject

Old: Simulating populations using AI.

New: Simulate the dancing behaviour of people in a bar or club.

When looking at Stratumseind these days, clubs and bars that were once flourishing look empty and silent. For a manager of such a bar, it may be difficult to decide what to improve to regain the glory of those golden days. Humans are complex, so their happiness and willingness to spend may depend on different factors combined in a specific way. Because of all these different factors, experimenting with them in real life is impossible work. On top of that, change in revenue might not be seen in a week, to be sure a longer observation period is needed. However, if you need to test a lot of different factors in a lot of different combinations, this takes ages.

That is where a simulation of the behaviours of the people in a bar or club might help. The simulation will make it easy to experiment with different factors, and adds the possibility to run multiple simulation in sequence. This way, certainty can be reached about the influence of a certain factor on the revenue, and managers of clubs and bars can come to decisions about what to improve to make their bar great again.

Objectives

• Main goal: assist the owner of a bar or dance hall with ideas on how to improve customer revenue.
• Construct an AI multi-agent simulation with which we can find what variables with what capacities are needed to maximize generated income.
• Analyse the reliability of such a simulation by discussing the observations of the client and the results of previous research done in this field (if any apply).
• Analyse the possibilities and shortcomings of such a simulation.

Research variables

General variables

• Income: The amount of money spent by patrons in order to buy alcohol
• music: Is there music present? if so, how loud is the music currently?
• Crowded level: How crowded is the bar/dance hall
• Dancing crowd: How many patron are currently dancing?

Patron specific variables

• Money: What amount of money do the patrons carry?
• Willingness to pay: How easy do the patrons part with their money in exchange for alcohol?
• Has alcohol: Patrons can get alcohol in exchange for money, which will slowly intoxicate them when consumed
• Intoxication: Intoxication changes the behaviour of a patron
• Alcohol tolerance: Patrons can endure only a specified amount of alcohol
• crowd sizes: In what group sizes can the patrons arrive and converse?
• Comfortability: Does the patron currently feel at ease?
• Dance affinity: Does the patron like to dance?
• Energy: All actions that a patron takes cost some energy.

Patron states

• Drinking: The only state that can be done simultaneously with any of the other states: In this state, the patron's alchohol will be drunk, increasing its intoxication level.
• Dancing: The patron is currently dancing and socialising with others. This actions does cost more energy than any other action.
• Talking: The patron is conversing with others, This does cost some energy.
• Buying: The patron is currently buying more alcohol for him/herself.
• Standing: In this state, the patron is inactive and unsocial. This state barely costs any energy.

Users

Old: Simulating populations can be useful in a lot of fields. A good-working simulation will therefore have a lot of users. Firstly, there are of course the biologists and behavioral analysts, who can perform experiments to try and understand populations better. A simulation like this can also be used in a population viability analysis, which is a species-specific method of risk assessment frequently used in conservation biology. Then we have the ecologists and government organisations who can use this tool for ecological risk assessment when they are making wildlife plans. Lastly, such a simulation can be useful in education to give students a better understanding of evolution and animal behaviour. (Avida-ED)

New (10/2): This simulator should prove useful to bar, club, dance or music events managers. Since this will help them with determining how to best get people dancing. Which for these managers in turn will mean more income. This could possible be used for other people who want to organize a personal event.

A secondary user for which this simulator might prove useful, are the people going to the bars, clubs, dance or music events. Assuming that customers spend more money when they enjoy themselves and leave when they do not, using the results of the simulator to improve bars would mean that bars become more enjoyable. This is beneficial for the customers: they will have a better time.

Because descriptions of where and how individuals spend their time are important for characterizing exposures to chemicals in consumer products and in indoor environments, and the existing method is difficult and labor-intensive, a simulation of longitudinal patterns in human behaviour was created. This is an agent-based model with a needs-based AI. Needs-based because humans make their decisions to take actions in order to fulfil needs. The paper describes how it is implemented. Meets critical need in field of exposure assessment. Only addresses a few needs, and not the complex ones.

A common criticism of Novelty Search is that it is effectively random or exhaustive search because it tries solutions in an unordered manner until a correct one is found. Its creators respond that over time Novelty Search accumulates information about the environment in the form of skills relevant to reaching uncharted territory, but to date no evidence for that hypothesis has been presented.

Social groups and their influence on the drinking behaviour of people in a bar

One can imagine that the composition of ones drinking group can have quite an influence on how you drink. Several studies support that indeed, the social context of a drinking occasion can impact drinking behaviour . Several studies shed light on more specific social factors and their corresponding impacts.

For starters, a larger drinking-group size is associated with heavier drinking . This seems quite logical: with more people, there are more people doing rounds, thus there is a longer time between having to get alcohol yourself while still getting a continuous supply of alcohol. Interestingly, this relationship was stronger for man than for woman . Also, man were found to consume more alcohol than woman, particularly at the beginnings of the evening. .

On top of the number of friends you take with you, the gender composition of those friends also influences drinking behaviour. A study found that both males and females consume significantly more drinks in mixed-gender groups. . There is a difference between males and females here: men consumed more drinks in groups with an equal amount of males and females and groups with men in the majority. They also consumed more drinks with in a group with men only compared to woman only.

Woman however, although they did consume more drinks in mixed-gender groups, consumed significantly fewer drinks in groups with men only than groups with woman only.

There are more differences between male and female pub-goers. One study found that male friends or acquaintances were the main sources of pressure on people to drink or drink more . According to the same paper, pressure to drink also depends on religion and gender. Another study found that indirect pressures to drink play a more significant role than direct pressures

Music

• The Impact of the Bass Drum on Human Dance Movement (2012) :

https://mp.ucpress.edu/content/30/4/349.abstract Promincence of the bass drum in contemporary dance music has strong influence on dancing itself. People modify their bodily behaviour according to the dynamic level of the bass drum. Participants moved more actively and displayed a higher degree of tempo entrainment as the sound pressure level of the bass drum increased.

Music and its influence on the behaviour of people in a bar

Music can have quite an influence on how people behave in social settings. Most people like background music: studies have found that people spend less time drinking in bars that don’t play music . It goes even further: according to a previous study, loud music makes people drink 31% more . The reason behind this is could be that when people can not communicate due to the noise in the bar, they start focussing on drinking . Another explanation is that high sound levels may cause higher arousal, which leads the subjects to drink faster and order more drinks .

Another study links faster music to faster drinking . However, a different study links slower music to more sales. Customers stayed about the same amount of time but spent more during slow music than during normal or fast music. . An explanation for this difference is that people prefer to listen to music that moderates their state of arousal . During a relaxing activity like an afternoon beer, people prefer slow low-arousal music, while during a night out people prefer music that further heightens their state of arousal. On top of that, studies found that the genre of music matters. Jacob (2006) found that when playing drinking songs in a bar, the duration of stay and spending both are increased . Further research supported this and claimed that customers exposed to textual references to alcohol spent significantly more on alcoholic drinks than those who were not

Omgeving gerelateerde factoren (geur, soort bar, etcetera)

Other factors

Apart from the earlier named influences on alcohol intake, a lot of other factors can influence how people behave on a night out.

One of these factors is scent: on a night out, one may encounter many scents, both pleasant and vile. Sweating bodies, alcohol, you name it. It would seem logical that ambient scents that mask the vile odours could contribute positively to the night-time experience. A previous study confirms this: they tested the scents of orange, seawater and peppermint, and found that all scents enhanced dancing activity and improved the evaluation of the evening, music and mood . Additionally, they found that the increase in dancing coincided with an increase in temperature in the club. This may lead to the customers wanting more alcohol: if it is hot, what’s better than a cold beer to cool off?
