Opinion dynamics in social networks under competition: the role of influencing factors in consensus-reaching [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 The rapid development of information technology and social media has provided easy access to the vast data on individual preferences and social interactions.

Dynamic Parameter Calibration Framework for Opinion Dynamics Models [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 In the past decade, various opinion dynamics models have been built to depict the evolutionary mechanism of opinions and use them to predict trends in public opinion.

Asymmetric Contrarians in Opinion Dynamics [PDF]
Entropy, 2019 Asymmetry in contrarian behavior is investigated within the Galam model of opinion dynamics using update groups of size 3 with two competing opinions A and B.

Opinion dynamics with confirmation bias. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Confirmation bias is the tendency to acquire or evaluate new information in a way that is consistent with one's preexisting beliefs. It is omnipresent in psychology, economics, and even scientific practices.

Opinion Dynamics with Higher-Order Bounded Confidence [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 The higher-order interactions in complex systems are gaining attention. Extending the classic bounded confidence model where an agent’s opinion update is the average opinion of its peers, this paper proposes a higher-order version of the bounded ...

Feedback Loops in Opinion Dynamics of Agent-Based Models with Multiplicative Noise [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 We introduce an agent-based model for co-evolving opinions and social dynamics, under the influence of multiplicative noise. In this model, every agent is characterized by a position in a social space and a continuous opinion state variable.

Opinion Dynamics with Bayesian Learning [PDF]
Complexity, 2020 Bayesian learning is a rational and effective strategy in the opinion dynamic process. In this paper, we theoretically prove that individual Bayesian learning can realize asymptotic learning and we test it by simulations on the Zachary network.

CONTINUOUS OPINIONS AND DISCRETE ACTIONS IN OPINION DYNAMICS PROBLEMS [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics C, 2008 A model where agents show discrete behavior regarding their actions, but have continuous opinions that are updated by interacting with other agents is presented. This new updating rule is applied to both the voter and Sznajd models for interaction between neighbors, and its consequences are discussed. The appearance of extremists is naturally observed

A Survey on Nonstrategic Models of Opinion Dynamics
Games, 2020 The paper presents a survey on selected models of opinion dynamics. Both discrete (more precisely, binary) opinion models as well as continuous opinion models are discussed. We focus on frameworks that assume non-Bayesian updating of opinions.

Opinion Dynamics and Unifying Principles: A Global Unifying Frame [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 I review and extend the set of unifying principles that allow comparing all models of opinion dynamics within one single frame. Within the Global Unifying Frame (GUF), any specific update rule chosen to study opinion dynamics for discrete individual ...
