Effect of perturbations on the emerging networks. The ties among the 32 agents self-organize into a hierarchical network and freeze into a local maximum during the first third of the run. Next, an “annealing” is applied (the noise term is considerably increased). Finally, the level of noise is set back to zero and a new maximum is found which is both more stable and corresponds to a larger overall score.
