Abstract:
In this chapter, we briefly review some opinion dynamics models starting from the classical Schelling model and other agent-based modelling examples. We consider both discrete and continuous models and we briefly describe different approaches: discrete dynamical systems and agent-based models, partial differential equations based models, kinetic framework. We also synthesized some comparisons between different methods with the main references in order to further analysis and remarks.
