The Euler-Equation Approach in Average-Oriented Opinion Dynamics †

open access: yesMathematics, 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

Dynamical model for competing opinions [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical 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.

A Veritable Zoology of Successive Phase Transitions in the Asymmetric q-Voter Model on Multiplex Networks

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
We analyze a nonlinear q-voter model with stochastic noise, interpreted in the social context as independence, on a duplex network. The size of the lobby q (i.e., the pressure group) is a crucial parameter that changes the behavior of the system.

Opinion dynamics for agents with opinion-dependent connections [PDF]

open access: yes49th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), 2010
We study a simple continuous-time multi-agent system related to Krause's model of opinion dynamics: each agent holds a real value, and this value is continuously attracted by every other value differing from it by less than 1, with an intensity proportional to the difference.

Opinion dynamics with highly oscillating opinions

open access: yesNeurocomputing
Opinion Dynamics (OD) models are a particular case of Agent-Based Models in which the evolution of opinions within a population is studied. In most OD models, opinions evolve as a consequence of interactions between agents, and the opinion fusion rule defines how those opinions are updated. In consequence, despite being simplistic, OD models provide an

Opinion Dynamics with Limited Information

open access: yesAlgorithmica, 2018
AbstractWe study opinion formation games based on the famous model proposed by Friedkin and Johsen (FJ model). In today’s huge social networks the assumption that in each round agents update their opinions by taking into account the opinions of all their friends is unrealistic.

The Effect of Agents' Psychology and Social Environment on the Opinion Formation: C/PA Relative Agreement Model in SW and SF Societies

open access: yesChaos Theory and Applications, 2022
Opinion dynamics in relative agreement models seen as an extension of bounded confidence ones, involve a new agents’ variable usually called opinion uncertainty and have higher level of complexity than that of bounded confidence models.

Fairness in Opinion Dynamics

open access: yesCoRR
Ways in which people's opinions change are, without a doubt, subject to a rich tapestry of differing influences. Factors that affect how one arrives at an opinion reflect how they have been shaped by their environment throughout their lives, education, material status, what belief systems are they subscribed to, and what socio-economic minorities are ...

Consensus, Polarization and Hysteresis in the Three-State Noisy q-Voter Model with Bounded Confidence

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
In this work, we address the question of the role of the influence of group size on the emergence of various collective social phenomena, such as consensus, polarization and social hysteresis.
