  • © 2017

Overview

  • Discusses mathematical models of mob control with threshold collective decision-making of the agents
  • Considers the static and dynamic models of mob control, based on an analysis of the interconnection between the micro and macromodels of active network structures
  • Highlights models of informational confrontation
  • Includes many results that are applicable not only to mob control problems, but also to control problems arising in social groups, online social networks, etc.
  • Intended for researchers and practitioners, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students and doctoral candidates specializing in the field of collective behavior modeling
  • Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book

This book presents mathematical models of mob control with threshold (conformity) collective decision-making of the agents. Based on the results of analysis of the interconnection between the micro- and macromodels of active network structures, it considers the static (deterministic, stochastic and game-theoretic) and dynamic (discrete- and continuous-time) models of mob control, and highlights models of informational confrontation. Many of the results are applicable not only to mob control problems, but also to control problems arising in social groups, online social networks, etc. Aimed at researchers and practitioners, it is also a valuable resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as doctoral candidates specializing in the field of collective behavior modeling.
