Abstract

The mixed Hegselmann-Krause (HK) model consists of a finite number of agents characterized by their opinion, a vector in $ {\bf{R^d}} $. For the deterministic case, each agent updates its opinion by the rule: decide its degree of stubbornness and mix its opinion with the average opinion of its opinion neighbors, the agents whose opinion differs by at most some confidence threshold from its opinion at each time step. The mixed model is studied deterministically in [22]. In this paper, we study it nondeterministically and involve a social relationship among the agents which can vary over time. We investigate circumstances under which asymptotic stability holds. Furthermore, we argue that the mixed model covers not only the HK model but also the Deffuant model.
