Watershed Ecology and the Environment, 2021 There has long been interest in making inferences about future low-probability natural events that have magnitudes greater than any in the past record. Given a stationary time series, the unbounded Type 1 and Type 2 asymptotic extreme value distributions

Complexity, 2020 Opinion natural reversals are important and common phenomena in network management. It is a naturally emerging process of opinions characterized by interactions between individuals and the evolution of attitudes themselves.

A Density Description of a Bounded-Confidence Model of Opinion Dynamics on Hypergraphs
SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2023 Abstract. Social interactions often occur between three or more agents simultaneously. Examining opinion dynamics on hypergraphs allows one to study the effect of such polyadic interactions on the opinions of agents. In this paper, we consider a bounded-confidence model (BCM), in which opinions take continuous values and interacting ...

Macroscopic Noisy Bounded Confidence Models With Distributed Radical Opinions
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2021 In this article, we study the nonlinear Fokker-Planck (FP) equation that arises as a mean-field (macroscopic) approximation of bounded confidence opinion dynamics, where opinions are influenced by environmental noises and opinions of radicals (stubborn individuals).

Extremism without extremists: Deffuant model with emotions
Frontiers in Physics, 2015 The frequent occurrence of extremist views in many social contexts, often growing from small minorities to almost total majority, poses a significant challenge for democratic societies.

Cross-platform opinion dynamics in competitive travel advertising: A coupled networks’ insight
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Social media platforms have become an important tool for travel advertisement. This study constructs the bounded confidence model to build an improved cross-platform competitive travel advertising information dissemination model based on open and closed ...

Pattern selection and super-patterns in the bounded confidence model [PDF]
EPL (Europhysics Letters), 2015 We study pattern formation in the bounded confidence model of opinion dynamics. In this random process, opinion is quantified by a single variable. Two agents may interact and reach a fair compromise, but only if their difference of opinion falls below a fixed threshold. Starting from a uniform distribution of opinions with compact support, a traveling

Bias and identifiability in the bounded confidence model
Royal Society Open ScienceAbstract Opinion dynamics models such as the bounded confidence models (BCMs) describe how a population can reach consensus, fragmentation, or polarization, depending on a few parameters. Connecting such models to real-world data could help understand these phenomena, testing model assumptions.

Opinion formation and distribution in a bounded-confidence model on various networks [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2018 In the social, behavioral, and economic sciences, it is an important problem to predict which individual opinions will eventually dominate in a large population, if there will be a consensus, and how long it takes a consensus to form. This idea has been studied heavily both in physics and in other disciplines, and the answer depends strongly on both ...

Scope-bounded pushdown languages [PDF]
, 2014 We study the formal language theory of multistack push-down automata (Mpa) restricted to computations where a symbol can be popped from a stack S only if it was pushed within a bounded number of contexts of S (scoped Mpa).
