Overview
Examining the dynamics of information dissemination and the formation of opinions within networks holds significant importance. The overarching goal of this project is to construct a versatile and authentic simulator (i.e., a "digital twin"), designed to comprehend the propagation of information in dynamic environments. The project integrates theories of multi-agent systems and dynamic planning with knowledge graphs to build an interpretable and dynamic information environment.
