Bounded-confidence opinion models with random-time interactions

Weiqi Chu, Mason A Porter

In models of opinion dynamics, agents interact with each other and can change their opinions as a result of those interactions. One type of opinion model is a bounded-confidence mo…

Oscillatory and Excitable Dynamics in an Opinion Model with Group Opinions

Corbit R. Sampson, Juan G. Restrepo, Mason A. Porter

In traditional models of opinion dynamics, each agent in a network has an opinion and changes in opinions arise from pairwise (i.e., dyadic) interactions between agents. However, i…

Long-Time and Short-Time Dynamics in a Weighted-Median Opinion Model on Networks

Lasse Mohr, Poul G. Hjorth, Mason A. Porter

Social interactions influence people's opinions. In some situations, these interactions eventually yield a consensus opinion; in others, they can lead to opinion fragmentation and…

An "Opinion Reproduction Number" for Infodemics in a Bounded-Confidence Content-Spreading Process on Networks

Heather Z. Brooks, Mason A. Porter

We study the spreading dynamics of content on networks. To do this, we use a model in which content spreads through a bounded-confidence mechanism. In a bounded-confidence model (B…

Bounded-Confidence Models of Opinion Dynamics with Neighborhood Effects

Sanjukta Krishnagopal, Mason A. Porter

We generalize bounded-confidence models (BCMs) of opinion dynamics by incorporating neighborhood effects. In a BCM, interacting agents influence each other through dyadic influence…
