The Laws of Opinion Dynamics in Social Systems: Theory and Inference

reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1189358 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Understanding the theoretical underpinnings of opinion dynamics is an important component of developing a complete picture of the manners in which social systems evolve and behave. Although an extremely interdisciplinary and complex problem, the modeling of opinion dynamics can be broken down to some essential components. Indeed, a variety of tools, ranging from combinatorics to game theory have already been applied to this domain in order to distill and model the main components and interactions within social systems.
