Reinforcement learning-based optimal control for stochastic opinion dynamics [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThis paper proposes a integrated framework for optimal control of opinion dynamics in social networks, addressing three progressively challenging scenarios: Model-based stochastic control, where agent interactions follow known probability distributions ...

Binary Opinion Models of Influence and Opinion Dynamics in Social Networks [PDF]
The process of influence and opinion dynamics is predominant in many kinds of real-life situations involving agents’ interactions. This phenomenon is extensively analyzed in different fields and with the help of various methods and tools. Network analysis is particularly suitable for the study of influence and opinion formation.

Opinion Dynamics on Correlated Subjects in Social Networks [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering, 2020 Understanding the evolution of collective beliefs is of critical importance to get insights on the political trends as well as on social tastes and opinions. In particular, it is pivotal to develop analytical models that can predict the beliefs dynamics and capture the interdependence of opinions on different subjects.

Mitigation of adversarial attacks on voter model dynamics by network heterogeneity
Journal of Physics: Complexity, 2023 Voter model dynamics in complex networks are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. In particular, the voting outcome can be inverted by adding extremely small perturbations that are strategically generated in social networks, even when one opinion is ...

Evolution of social power for opinion dynamics networks [PDF]
2017 55th Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton), 2017 This article studies the evolution of opinions and interpersonal influence structures in a group of agents as they discuss a sequence of issues, each of which follows an opinion dynamics model. In this work, we propose a general opinion dynamics model and an evolution of interpersonal influence structures based on the model of reflected appraisals ...

Dynamics of Public Opinions in an Online and Offline Social Network [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Big Data, 2021 With the development of the information and Internet technology, the public opinions with big data will rapidly emerge in an online-offline social network, and an inefficient management of public opinions often will lead to the security crisis for either firms or governments.

Bounded-confidence model of opinion dynamics with heterogeneous node-activity levels
Physical Review Research, 2023 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.

Network Opinion Evolution Model Incorporating the Influence of Media Heterogeneity
IEEE Access, 2020 Opinion dynamics is the basic research content of social network research. Traditional opinion dynamics models focus on the heterogeneity of regular users, but ignore the heterogeneity of media users in social networks.
