External Bias and Opinion Clustering in Cooperative Networks
In this work, we consider a group of n agents which interact with each other in a cooperative framework. A Laplacian-based model is proposed to govern the evolution of opinions in the group when the agents are subjected to external biases like agents' traits, news, etc. The objective of the paper is to design a control input which leads to any desired opinion clustering even in the presence of external bias factors. Further, we also determine the conditions which ensure the reachability to any arbitrary opinion states. Note that all of these results hold for any kind of graph structure. Finally, some numerical simulations are discussed to validate these results.

Competing LLM Agents in a Non-Cooperative Game of Opinion Polarisation
We introduce a novel non-cooperative game to analyse opinion formation and resistance, incorporating principles from social psychology such as confirmation bias, resource constraints, and influence penalties. Our simulat…

Social cognitive theory explains how people learn and acquire knowledge through observing others. Recent years have witnessed the rapid development of large language models (LLMs), which suggests their potential signific…
Tripartite and Sign Consensus for Clustering Balanced Social Networks
In this paper, we address two forms of consensus for multi-agent systems with undirected, signed, weighted, and connected communication graphs, under the assumption that the agents can be partitioned into three clusters,…
ClusteringOn a Network SIS Epidemic Model with Cooperative and Antagonistic Opinion Dynamics
We propose a mathematical model to study coupled epidemic and opinion dynamics in a network of communities. Our model captures SIS epidemic dynamics whose evolution is dependent on the opinions of the communities toward …
Closed-form solution to cooperative visual-inertial structure from motion
This paper considers the problem of visual-inertial sensor fusion in the cooperative case and it provides new theoretical contributions, which regard its observability and its resolvability in closed form. The case of tw…
