State-dependent opinion dynamics
2014 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2014We study the simultaneous evolution of the opinion profile and network topology of a system of N agents. Based on the opinion profile at any given time, agents probabilistically decide which other agents to form links with. The probability of a link being formed with another agent depends on both similarity of their opinions and the popularity of that ...

Opinion Dynamics with Persistent Leaders
53rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 2014This paper revisits the problem of agreement seeking in a social network under the influence of leaders. The persistence of the leader's effect on the opinions of other agents is characterized by the total weight that they place on the leader's information over time. If this weight is infinite, then the leader is called persistent. Our results describe

Opinion dynamics of skeptical agents
International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2014How does skepticism affect opinion formation in networks? In many settings, agents exhibit skepticism in the presence of people whose beliefs radically different from their own, and they are reluctant to be persuaded by such individuals. We present a model of opinion dynamics where agents are receptive toward other agents that have similar opinions ...

A model of fuzzy opinion dynamics
2017 13th International Conference on Natural Computation, Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery (ICNC-FSKD), 2017Discrete and continuous opinion dynamics models have been widely studied in the contexts of social dynamics and group decision-making. However, the fuzziness of opinion is less well-concerned in existing contributions. Based on the fuzzy set theory, a fuzzy opinion dynamics model is proposed in this work. In our model, individual opinion is represented

Discrete-time opinion dynamics
2011 Conference Record of the Forty Fifth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers (ASILOMAR), 2011We discuss the Hegselmann-Krause model for opinion dynamics in discrete-time for a symmetric confidence bound. We construct an adjoint dynamics and use it to define a Lyapunov comparison function that decreases along the trajectory of the opinion dynamics. Using the Lyapunov comparison function, we develop a novel upper bound on the convergence time of

Opinion Dynamics Under Opposition
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013We study a DeGroot-like opinion dynamics model in which agents may oppose other agents. As an underlying motivation, in our setup, agents want to adjust their opinions to match those of the agents they follow (their 'ingroup' or those they trust) and, in addition, they want to adjust their opinions to match the 'inverse' of those of the agents they ...
