ABSTRACT
Building consensus is a process in which participants start with various opinions and reach an agreement as far as possible. During a discussion, participants exhibit different stances such as agree or disagree at other's utterances. In this paper, a stance analysis of participants by combining BBS tree structure and participant relation graph is proposed. The stance change is measured by an approach of information theory. Finally, simulations are provided to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

A two-step approach to building bilateral consensus between agents based on relationship learning theory
Researchers are increasingly focusing on the agent based approach to transaction support in ubiquitous commerce. These agents work autonomously to maximize utility on the user's behalf. In the case of a cooperative game, rather than a win-lose zero-sum ...
A Study on Consensus Building Mechanism Based on Kansei ~Consideration of Experimental Tasks that Cause Conflicts~
Human-Computer Interaction. Theoretical Approaches and Design MethodsAbstractWe are engaged in a variety of consensus-building activities in our daily lives. In order to build consensus, it is necessary to reach a single conclusion unanimously. Therefore, if there are conflicting opinions, they need to be resolved. To deal ...
A New Approach to Better Consensus Building and Agreement Implementation for Trustworthy AI Systems
Computer Safety, Reliability, and Security.
