A Hybrid Opinion Formation and Polarization Model
Entropy, 2022 The last decade has witnessed a great number of opinion formation models that depict the evolution of opinions within a social group and make predictions about the evolution process. In the traditional formulation of opinion evolution such as the DeGroot

Game-theoretical approach for opinion dynamics on social networks [PDF]
Chaos, 2022 Opinion dynamics on social networks have received considerable attentions in recent years. Nevertheless, just a few works have theoretically analyzed the condition in which a certain opinion can spread in the whole structured population. In this article,

Characterizing Controversiality of Topics Utilizing Eccentricity of Opinions
Northeast Journal of Complex Systems, 2023 Access to abundant biased information in echo chambers and social bubbles often intensifies opinions to the extremes. The extremization of opinions results in several topics becoming controversial.

Convergence, Consensus, and Dissensus in the Weighted-Median Opinion Dynamics [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2022 Mechanistic and tractable mathematical models play a key role in understanding how social influence shapes public opinions. Recently, a weighted-median mechanism has been proposed as a new microfoundation of opinion dynamics and validated via ...

Dynamical affinity in opinion dynamics modeling [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2007 We here propose a model to simulate the process of opinion formation, which accounts for the mutual affinity between interacting agents. Opinion and affinity evolve self-consistently, manifesting a highly non trivial interplay. A continuous transition is found between single and multiple opinion states.

Consensus in Concatenated Opinion Dynamics With Stubborn Agents
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2023 This article investigates a two-timescale opinion dynamics model, named the concatenated Friedkin–Johnsen (FJ) model, which describes the evolution of the opinions of a group of agents over a sequence of discussion events.

Effects of Stubbornness on Opinion Dynamics [PDF]
International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management, 2022 As an important factor governing opinion dynamics, stubbornness strongly affects various aspects of opinion formation. However, a systematically theoretical study about the influences of heterogeneous stubbornness on opinion dynamics is still lacking. In

A Bounded-Confidence Model of Opinion Dynamics with Heterogeneous Node-Activity Levels [PDF]
arXiv.org, 2022 Agent-based models of opinion dynamics allow one to examine the spread of opinions between entities and to study phenomena such as consensus, polarization, and fragmentation.

Opinion dynamics on tie-decay networks
Physical Review Research, 2021 In social networks, interaction patterns typically change over time. We study opinion dynamics on tie-decay networks in which tie strength increases instantaneously when there is an interaction and decays exponentially between interactions. Specifically,
