Steering opinion dynamics through control of social networks [PDF]

Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science
In this paper, we propose a novel control approach for opinion dynamics on evolving networks. The controls modify the strength of connections in the network, rather than influencing opinions directly, with the overall goal of steering the population toward a target opinion.

Opinion formation in dynamic social networks

, 2017
Opinion dynamics in a society of interacting agents may lead to consensus or to the coexistence of different opinions. The interplay between social network change and opinion formation is complex, because the agents, their social interactions and the changing social structure over time, are themselves complex.
