摘要
In this paper, using a developed cellular automaton model of the stock market. variables reflecting fractal and stability properties are introduced to describe complexity in the stock market: the concept of discrete level is defined to characterize market stability. Based on the model, the dependency of market complexity on the investors' imitation degree is investigated. The results show a clear correlation between investors' imitation degree and complexity of the stock market. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
