- Abstract summary: We present a model for predicting the behavior of an individual during a binary game under different amounts of risk, gain, and time pressure.
The model is based on Quantum Decision Theory (QDT), which has been shown to enable modeling of the irrational and subjective aspects of the decision making.

- Abstract: Computer modeling of human decision making is of large importance for, e.g.,
sustainable transport, urban development, and online recommendation systems. In
this paper we present a model for predicting the behavior of an individual
during a binary game under different amounts of risk, gain, and time pressure.
The model is based on Quantum Decision Theory (QDT), which has been shown to
enable modeling of the irrational and subjective aspects of the decision
making, not accounted for by the classical Cumulative Prospect Theory (CPT).
Experiments on two different datasets show that our QDT-based approach
outperforms both a CPT-based approach and data driven approaches such as
feed-forward neural networks and random forests.

Human trajectory forecasting helps to understand and predict human behaviors, enabling applications from social robots to self-driving cars.
Model-free methods offer superior prediction accuracy but lack explainability, while model-based methods provide explainability but cannot predict well.
We show that BNSP-SFM achieves up to a 50% improvement in prediction accuracy, compared with 11 state-of-the-art methods.

Decision-Making Guided by Fuzzy Trace Theory [5.154015755506085]
Fuzzy trace theory (FTT) is a powerful paradigm that explains human decision-making by incorporating gists.
We propose a computational framework which combines the effects of the underlying semantics and sentiments on text-based decision-making.
In particular, we introduce Category-2- to learn categorical gists and categorical sentiments, and demonstrate how our computational model can be optimised to predict risky decision-making in groups and individuals.
