| 1 | Recent Advances in the Modelling and Analysis of Opinion Dynamics on Influence Networks显示文摘A fundamental aspect of society is the exchange and discussion of opinions between individuals, occurring in situations as varied as company boardrooms, elementary school classrooms and online social media. After a very brief introduction to the established results of the most fundamental opinion dynamics models, which seek to mathematically capture observed social phenomena, a brief discussion follows on several recent themes pursued by the authors building on the fundamental ideas. In the first theme, we study the way an individual′s self-confidence can develop through contributing to discussions on a sequence of topics, reaching a consensus in each case,where the consensus value to some degree reflects the contribution of that individual to the conclusion. During this process, the individuals in the network and the way they interact can change. The second theme introduces a novel discrete-time model of opinion dynamics to study how discrepancies between an individual′s expressed and private opinions can arise due to stubbornness and a pressure to conform to a social norm. It is also shown that a few extremists can create 'pluralistic ignorance', where people believe there is majority support for a position but in fact the position is privately rejected by the majority. Last, we consider a group of individuals discussing a collection of logically related topics. In particular, we identify that for topics whose logical interdependencies take on a cascade structure,disagreement in opinions can occur if individuals have competing and/or heterogeneous views on how the topics are related, i.e., the logical interdependence structure varies between individuals. | Brian D.O.Anderson Mengbin Ye | 2019 | International Journal of Automation and computing2019，16，2： | 13 |
| 2 | Mathematical Models of Self-Appraisal in Social Networks显示文摘In social networks where individuals discuss opinions on a sequence of topics,the selfconfidence an individual exercises in relation to one topic,as measured by the weighting given to their own opinion as against the opinion of all others,can vary in the light of the self-appraisal by the individual of their contribution to the previous topic.This observation gives rise to a type of model termed a De Groot-Friedkin model.This paper reviews a number of results concerning this model.These include the asymptotic behavior of the self-confidence(as the number of topics goes to infinity),the possible emergence of an autocrat or small cohort of leaders,the effect of changes in the weighting given to opinions of others(in the light for example of their perceived expertise in relation to a particular topic under discussion),and the inclusion in the model of individual behavioral characteristics such as humility,arrogance,etc.Such behavioral characteristics create new opportunities for autocrats to emerge. | ANDERSON Brian D.O.
