Dynamics of Multidimensional Conflicting Opinions in Social Networks

چکیده
This paper proposes two models for simulating belief update in social networks in cases where certain beliefs might be considered to be competing. The proposed models represent different attitudes of people towards the perceived conflict between beliefs. Computer simulations show that the first model usually divides the community into several distinct groups with one of the beliefs being rejected, while the second model tends to make the network achieve consensus for both beliefs with independent network update and maintain diversity on both beliefs with joint network update.

In this paper we study a novel model of opinion dynamics in social networks, which has two main features. First, agents asynchronously interact in pairs, and these pairs are chosen according to a random process. We refer to this communication model as “gossiping”. Second, agents are not completely open-minded, but instead take into account their initial opinions, which may be thought of as thei...

متن کاملThe Coevolution of Individual Economic Characteristics and Socioeconomic Networks
The opinion dynamics of economic agents is modeled with the link structure influenced by the resulting opinions: Links between people of nearly the same opinion are more stable than those between people of vastly different opinions. A simple scaling law describes the number of surviving final opinion as a function of the numbers of agents and of possible opinions.
