  • Abstract
    The Bounded Confidence Model has been largely applied to simulate many sociophysical phenomena. In this paper we present and analyze a model of Opinion Dynamics and Bounded Confidence on the Flocking movement world. We introduce some special agents with different character into the system and simulate the opinion formation process using the proposed model. As result, we obtained that the special agent can change the dynamics of system with small population. The extremist with different opinions leads to asymmetry polarization, deflection consensus and isolated polarization and the leader with different bounded confidence change dynamics of system from consensus to polarization.
