Opinion formation in social networks with groups: a simulation study by Chiam, Yuan Qi

“…The difference between both networks is that in random networks the nodes are mostly likely to have similar number of edge connection while in Scale-free networks the number of connections of each node varies which is more useful in showing the behaviour of real-world social networks. Research has also been done on the classic deffuant model which is used to explore the formation of opinions. …”
