论文摘要
这项工作探讨了与意见相关的连接性的意见动力学模型。我们的起点是,个人与同龄人进行互动的能力有限。在这一观察结果的推动下,我们提出了一个连续的时间意见动力学模型,使得与数量有限的同龄人进行相互作用:我们将这些相互作用称为拓扑,而不是在经典界限信心模型中假定的度量相互作用。我们观察到拓扑相互作用会产生对扰动非常强大的平衡。
This work explores models of opinion dynamics with opinion-dependent connectivity. Our starting point is that individuals have limited capabilities to engage in interactions with their peers. Motivated by this observation, we propose a continuous-time opinion dynamics model such that interactions take place with a limited number of peers: we refer to these interactions as topological, as opposed to metric interactions that are postulated in classical bounded-confidence models. We observe that topological interactions produce equilibria that are very robust to perturbations.
