A Phase Transition for Opinion Dynamics with Competing Biases
Federico Capannoli, Emilio Cruciani, Hlafo Alfie Mimun +1
We study a nonlinear dynamics of binary opinions in a population of agents connected by a directed network, influenced by two competing forces. On the one hand, agents are stubborn…
Opinion Dynamics: A Comprehensive Overview
Mohammad Shirzadi, Emilio Cruciani, Ahad N. Zehmakan
Opinion dynamics, the evolution of individuals through social interactions, is an important area of research with applications ranging from politics to marketing. Due to its interd…
Choosing to Be Green: Advancing Green AI via Dynamic Model Selection
Emilio Cruciani, Roberto Verdecchia
Artificial Intelligence is increasingly pervasive across domains, with ever more complex models delivering impressive predictive performance. This fast technological advancement ho…
Dynamic algorithms for k-center on graphs
Emilio Cruciani, Sebastian Forster, Gramoz Goranci +2
In this paper we give the first efficient algorithms for the -center problem on dynamic graphs undergoing edge updates. In this problem, the goal is to partition the input into…
On a Voter Model with Context-Dependent Opinion Adoption
Luca Becchetti, Vincenzo Bonifaci, Emilio Cruciani +1
Opinion diffusion is a crucial phenomenon in social networks, often underlying the way in which a collective of agents develops a consensus on relevant decisions. The voter model i…
On the convergence of nonlinear averaging dynamics with three-body interactions on hypergraphs
Emilio Cruciani, Emanuela L. Giacomelli, Jinyeop Lee
Complex networked systems in fields such as physics, biology, and social sciences often involve interactions that extend beyond simple pairwise ones. Hypergraphs serve as powerful…
Biased Opinion Dynamics: When the Devil Is in the Details
Aris Anagnostopoulos, Luca Becchetti, Emilio Cruciani +2
We investigate opinion dynamics in multi-agent networks when a bias toward one of two possible opinions exists; for example, reflecting a status quo vs a superior alternative. Star…
Phase Transition of the k-Majority Dynamics in Biased Communication Models
Emilio Cruciani, Hlafo Alfie Mimun, Matteo Quattropani +1
Consider a graph where each of the nodes is either in state or . Herein, we analyze the \emph{synchronous -Majority dynamics}, where in each discr…
Election Control through Social Influence with Unknown Preferences
Mohammad Abouei Mehrizi, Federico Corò, Emilio Cruciani +1
The election control problem through social influence asks to find a set of nodes in a social network of voters to be the starters of a political campaign aiming at supporting a gi…
Exploiting Social Influence to Control Elections Based on Scoring Rules
Federico Corò, Emilio Cruciani, Gianlorenzo D'Angelo +1
Online social networks are used to diffuse opinions and ideas among users, enabling a faster communication and a wider audience. The way in which opinions are conditioned by social…
Distributed Community Detection via Metastability of the 2-Choices Dynamics
Emilio Cruciani, Emanuele Natale, Giacomo Scornavacca
We investigate the behavior of a simple majority dynamics on networks of agents whose interaction topology exhibits a community structure. By leveraging recent advancements in the…
Phase Transition of the 2-Choices Dynamics on Core-Periphery Networks
Emilio Cruciani, Emanuele Natale, André Nusser +1
Consider the following process on a network: Each agent initially holds either opinion blue or red; then, in each round, each agent looks at two random neighbors and, if the two ha…
