BOUNDED CONFIDENCE MODEL ON GROWING POPULATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Complex Systems
This paper studies the bounded confidence model on growing fully-mixed populations. In this model, in addition to the usual opinion clusters, significant secondary clusters of smaller size appear systematically, while those secondary clusters appear erratically and include much fewer agents when the population is fixed.

Opinion formation with time-varying bounded confidence. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
When individuals in social groups communicate with one another and are under the influence of neighbors' opinions, they typically revise their own opinions to adapt to such peer opinions.

Triadic Transitions of Opinion Dynamics in a Bounded Confidence Model

open access: yesJournal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation
We analyze the opinion dynamics in a bounded confidence model through the dynamics of triads, defined as a group of three people, represented by a three-node subgraph. In particular, we focus on the closing and opening dynamics of triads as well as their transitions.

Multi-level opinion dynamics under bounded confidence. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Opinion dynamics focuses on the opinion evolution in a social community. Recently, some models of continuous opinion dynamics under bounded confidence were proposed by Deffuant and Krause, et al. In the literature, agents were generally assumed to have a

Opinion dynamics and bounded confidence: models, analysis and simulation. [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Artif. Soc. Soc. Simul., 2002
When does opinion formation within an interacting group lead to consensus, polarization or fragmentation? The article investigates various models for the dynamics of continuous opinions by analytical methods as well as by computer simulations. Section 2 develops within a unified framework the classical model of consensus formation, the variant of this ...

A Bounded-Confidence Model of Opinion Dynamics on Hypergraphs [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems, 2022
People's opinions evolve with time as they interact with their friends, family, colleagues, and others. In the study of opinion dynamics on networks, one often encodes interactions between people in the form of dyadic relationships, but many social interactions in real life are polyadic (i.e., they involve three or more people).

Generalized solutions to bounded-confidence models [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, 2021
Bounded-confidence models in social dynamics describe multi-agent systems, where each individual interacts only locally with others. Several models are written as systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with discontinuous right-hand side: this is a direct consequence of restricting interactions to a bounded region with non-vanishing strength

Model Confidence Bounds for Variable Selection [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrics, 2019
AbstractIn this article, we introduce the concept of model confidence bounds (MCB) for variable selection in the context of nested models. Similarly to the endpoints in the familiar confidence interval for parameter estimation, the MCB identifies two nested models (upper and lower confidence bound models) containing the true model at a given level of ...

THE BOUNDED CONFIDENCE MODEL OF OPINION DYNAMICS [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, 2012
The bounded confidence model of opinion dynamics, introduced by Deffuant et al., is a stochastic model for the evolution of continuous-valued opinions within a finite group of peers. We prove that, as time goes to infinity, the opinions evolve globally into a random set of clusters too far apart to interact, and thereafter all opinions in every ...
