![]() ![]() Push SETUP, then in the command center, enter: ask balls What do you notice about how much time the center of mass spends at different distances from the origin (its frequency distribution)? (Try it in slow motion.) Now what happens and why? What happens to the motion of the center of mass? Why? Now run it with only a handful of turtles. Use the speed slider to watch the model in slow motion. Is there a pattern? Is there a region in the box that it stays within? THINGS TO TRY Watch how the center of mass moves for a while. Select the number of balls to be used, then push SETUP. The center of mass is drawn in white and leaves a red trail. They move in straight lines and bounce off the walls but not off of each other. Random Balls simulates a frictionless billiard table. You can also Try running it in NetLogo Web If you download the NetLogo application, this model is included.

This demo was written by Patrick Jordan based on the algorithm by Gunes Erkan and Dragomir Radev: Use LexRank, a PageRank based algorithm, to summarize text. Experiment by varying the teleportation probability in applying PageRank to a small network. Having high PageRank means that not only do others link to you, but those others are themselves linked to. Choose nodes in a small social network such that your opinion wins out. This model is set up as a two-player game. Sometimes whether an opinion diffuses or not depends on the initial location where it is formed, and also whether one is dealing with simple contagion (each of your friends "infects" you with constant probability at each time point) or complex contagion (you need to hear it from at least two friends to adopt an opinion). See how the tendency of new nodes to attach to well connected nodes influences the rate of spread:ĭiffusion in randomly and preferentially grown networks (NetLogo)įind out how random rewiring affects the probability that an infection persists in the network using an SIS (susceptible-infected-susceptible) model. ![]() Next, take a growing network, with and without preferential attachment. Start with a simple Erdos-Renyi random graph, and figure out how the density of the network affects the speed of diffusion.ĭiffusion in an Erdos Renyi graph (NetLogo) Opinion formation on a toy network (NetLogo) Use the Girvan-Newman betweenness clustering algorithm to discover community structure in the linking patterns of political blogs.įind out how community structure can affect opinion formation. Random and preferential attachment NetLogo model Vary this preference and see the effect on the growing network. It can do this purely at random, or it may prefer nodes who have more connections. Giant Component Model (model is part of the standard NetLogo models library)Įach node that joins the network has to decide what other node(s) it will attach to. Is there a critical average degree at which a giant component emerges? Vary the average degree in the classic Erdos-Renyi random graph model.
