Using Gaussian Mixtures to Model Evolving Multi-Modal Beliefs Across Social Media

Yijun Chen, Farhad Farokhi, Yutong Bu, Nicholas Kah Yean Low et autres

We use Gaussian mixtures to model formation and evolution of multi-modal beliefs and opinion uncertainty across social networks. In this model, opinions evolve by Bayesian belief update when incorporating exogenous factors (signals from outside sources, e.g., news articles) and by non-Bayesian mixing …

Discerning media bias within a network of political allies: an analytic condition for disruption by partisans

An individual's opinion concerning political bias in the media is shaped by exogenous factors (independent analysis of media outputs) and endogenous factors (social activity, e.g. peer pressure by political allies and opponents in a network). Previous numerical studies show, that persuadable agents …
