PageRank model of opinion formation on social networks
We propose the PageRank model of opinion formation and investigate its rich properties on real directed networks of Universities of Cambridge and Oxford, LiveJournal and Twitter. In this model the opinion formation of linked electors is weighted with their PageRank probability. We find that the society elite, corresponding to the top PageRank nodes, can impose its opinion to a significant fract...
متن کاملModel of Opinion Spreading in Social Networks
A computer mediated social network is a modern information system where data is generated, distributed, evaluated and accumulated. It is important to understand how the topology of the network affects the information cycle and to develop network algorithms accordingly. One of the intriguing processes in social networks is information and opinion spreading between actors. This paper attempts to ...
متن کاملOpinion Mining, Social Networks, Higher Education
Background and Aim: With the advent of technology and the use of social networks such as Instagram, Facebook, blogs, forums, and many other platforms, interactions of learners with one another and their lecturers have become progressively relaxed. This has led to the accumulation of large quantities of data and information about studentschr('39') attitudes, learning experiences, opinions, and f...
متن کاملTolerance-based interaction: A new model targeting opinion formation and diffusion in social networks
One of the main motivations behind social network analysis is the quest for understanding opinion formation and diffusion. Previous models have limitations, as they typically assume opinion interaction mechanisms based on thresholds which are either fixed or evolve according to a random process that is external to the social agent. Indeed, our empirical analysis on large real-world datasets suc...
متن کاملOpinion Formation Models in Static and Dynamic Social Networks
We study models of opinion formation on static as well as dynamic networks where interaction among individuals is governed by widely accepted social theories. In particular, three models of competing opinions based on distinct interaction mechanisms are studied. A common feature in all of these models is the existence of a tipping point in terms of a model parameter beyond which a rapid consens...
