摘要: Opinion dynamics has recently attracted much attention, and there have been a lot of achievements in this area. This paper first gives an overview of the development of opinion dynamics on social networks. We introduce some classical models of opinion dynamics in detail, including the DeGroot model, the Krause model, 0-1 models, sign networks and models related to Gossip algorithms. Inspired by some real life cases, we choose the unit circle as the range of the individuals’ opinion values. We prove that the individuals’ opinions of the randomized gossip algorithm in which the individuals’ opinion values are on the unit circle reaches consensus almost surely.
