An Adaptive Network Model to Simulate Consensus Formation Driven by Social Identity Recognition

Figure 8

Evolution results of the state similarity matrix. The similarity matrix element calculates the state similarity between all nodes based on equation (2) and uses the color to represent the size of . The figure shows the state similarity matrix of the two networks when the number of iterations is 0, 400, 800, 1200, 1600, and 2000. (a) ER network (θ = 0.15). (b) BA network (θ = 0.15). (c) ER network (θ = 0.35). (d) BA network (θ = 0.35).
