Abstract

Social influence has been a topic of increasing importance in the rise of social net- works like Facebook or Instagram. Especially the propagation of opinions in such networks has been topic of interest. Different opinion diffusion models tried to capture this behavior. Addi- tionally, epidemiology uses very similar models to look at the spread of diseases in epidemics. This study investigates diffusion models of different origins and combines them using a deter- ministic finite state machine (DFA). A special translation is shown that converts a weighted and biased threshold model to an undirected and unweighted threshold model. To make diffusion models more approachable, a website tool is implemented that shows the behaviors of multiple diffusion models for common types of graph typologies. The website is also capable of showing the previously mentioned model translation.
