Polarized Ukraine 2014: opinion and territorial split demonstrated with the bounded confidence XY model, parametrized by Twitter data [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Multiple countries have recently experienced extreme political polarization, which, in some cases, led to escalation of hate crime, violence and political instability.

Dynamics Analysis for the Random Homogeneous Biased Assimilation Model
Mathematics, 2023 This paper studies the evolution of opinions over random social networks subject to individual biases. An agent reviews the opinion of a randomly selected one and then updates its opinion under homogeneous biased assimilation. This study investigates the

On opinion dynamics in heterogeneous networks [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2011 American Control Conference, 2011 This paper studies the opinion dynamics model recently introduced by Hegselmann and Krause: each agent in a group maintains a real number describing its opinion; and each agent updates its opinion by averaging all other opinions that are within some given confidence range. The confidence ranges are distinct for each agent.

Opinion competition dynamics on multiplex networks
New Journal of Physics, 2017 Multilayer and multiplex networks represent a good proxy for the description of social phenomena where social structure is important and can have different origins. Here, we propose a model of opinion competition where individuals are organized according

The dynamics of opinion expression
CoRR, 2019 Modelling efforts in opinion dynamics have to a large extent ignored that opinion exchange between individuals can also have an effect on how willing they are to express their opinion publicly. Here, we introduce a model of public opinion expression.

Anisotropic opinion dynamics [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2016 We consider the process of opinion formation in a society of interacting agents, where there is a set B of socially accepted rules. In this scenario, we observed that agents, represented by simple feed-forward, adaptive neural networks, may have a conservative attitude (mostly in agreement with B) or liberal attitude (mostly in agreement with ...

Dynamical model for competing opinions [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2012 We propose an opinion model based on agents located at the vertices of a regular lattice. Each agent has an independent opinion (among an arbitrary, but fixed, number of choices) and its own degree of conviction. The latter changes every time it interacts with another agent who has a different opinion.

The Euler-Equation Approach in Average-Oriented Opinion Dynamics †
Mathematics, 2020 We consider the models of average-oriented opinion dynamics. An opinion about an event is distributed among the agents of a social network. There are an optimization problem and two game-theoretical models when players as centers of influence aim to make
