6565## Features
6666
67- | Feature | Description |
68- | ---------| -------------|
69- | ** Household mode** | Family units with correlated partners and dependents |
70- | ** Fidelity tiers** | Low/medium/high controlling conversations and memory |
71- | ** Conversations** | Agents talk to each other, both update state |
72- | ** Timeline events** | Evolving scenarios with new information over time |
73- | ** Open-ended outcomes** | Discover categories post-hoc from agent responses |
67+ ### Population
68+ | | |
69+ | ---| ---|
70+ | ** Any geography** | US, Japan, India, Brazil — define attributes with your distributions |
71+ | ** Household mode** | Family units with correlated partners, NPC dependents, assortative mating |
72+ | ** Agent focus** | Primary adult, couples, or full families as reasoning agents |
73+ | ** Real distributions** | LLM researches actual demographics with citations |
74+
75+ ### Social Network
76+ | | |
77+ | ---| ---|
78+ | ** Structural edges** | Partner, household, coworker, neighbor, congregation, school parent |
79+ | ** Similarity edges** | Acquaintances and online contacts based on attribute similarity |
80+ | ** Edge-type influence** | Different relationships carry different weight per scenario |
81+ | ** Small-world topology** | Calibrated clustering and path lengths |
82+
83+ ### Simulation
84+ | | |
85+ | ---| ---|
86+ | ** Two-pass reasoning** | Role-play first, classify second — eliminates central tendency bias |
87+ | ** Conversations** | Agents talk to each other; both update state independently |
88+ | ** Memory & conviction** | Agents remember past reasoning; conviction affects sharing and flip resistance |
89+ | ** THINK vs SAY** | Separate internal monologue from public statement (high fidelity) |
90+ | ** Timeline events** | Inject new information at specified timesteps for evolving scenarios |
91+
92+ ### Outcomes
93+ | | |
94+ | ---| ---|
95+ | ** Categorical** | Known decision space (buy/wait/skip, support/oppose/neutral) |
96+ | ** Boolean** | Binary decisions (will share, will switch) |
97+ | ** Float** | Intensity measures (sentiment, likelihood, trust level) |
98+ | ** Open-ended** | Free text — discover categories post-hoc |
