• Abstract summary: Measuring group polarization on social media presents several challenges that have not yet been addressed by existing solutions. We designed a solution based on a multi-agent system and used a graph-structured Community Sentiment Network (CSN) to represent polarization states. In summary, the proposed approach has significant value in terms of usability, accuracy, and interpretability.

• Abstract: Group polarization is an important research direction in social media content analysis, attracting many researchers to explore this field. Therefore, how to effectively measure group polarization has become a critical topic. Measuring group polarization on social media presents several challenges that have not yet been addressed by existing solutions. First, social media group polarization measurement involves processing vast amounts of text, which poses a significant challenge for information extraction. Second, social media texts often contain hard-to-understand content, including sarcasm, memes, and internet slang. Additionally, group polarization research focuses on holistic analysis, while texts is typically fragmented. To address these challenges, we designed a solution based on a multi-agent system and used a graph-structured Community Sentiment Network (CSN) to represent polarization states. Furthermore, we developed a metric called Community Opposition Index (COI) based on the CSN to quantify polarization. Finally, we tested our multi-agent system through a zero-shot stance detection task and achieved outstanding results. In summary, the proposed approach has significant value in terms of usability, accuracy, and interpretability.

We introduce an instance generation model where a single parameter controls the polarization of the instances in such a way that this correlates with the average complexity to solve those instances.

It iteratively employs the frequent itemset recombination operator to generate promising offspring solution based on itemsets that frequently occur in high-quality solutions. In particular, it discovers 29 new upper bounds and matches 18 previous best-known bounds.

The substantial improvement over the various metrics demonstrates the efficacy of MGD-GAN on the text-to-pedestrian synthesis scenario.
