Subject
The focus of my scientific work lies in the simulation of social phenomena using agent-based modeling. My research specifically examines the relationship between social diffusion processes (e.g., the spread of viruses, norms, or information) and the structure of a society’s social network. I am also working on advancing the integration of empirical data (e.g., survey data) into agent-based models.
Together with Lukas Erhard, I am developing the Python package Pop2net, which simplifies the creation of complex network structures for agent-based models and facilitates the integration of empirical data into such models. For more information, click here: https://mariuzka.github.io/pop2net/ As part of my teaching activities at the Institute for Social Sciences, I have developed an introduction to agent-based modeling with Python in German: https://mariuzka.github.io/amp_page/intro.html
I have been a member of the Chair of Computational Social Science since 2019. Since 2022, I have been working on the project "SoepSim - Improving agent-based modeling by utilizing large-scale survey data," funded by the SimTech Cluster of Excellence.
