I study a retweet network collected during the 2017 French presidential elections where accounts of political entities are fixed as reference points. I show that in its equilibrium state, the Voter Model correctly identifies ground-truth opinions of more than 92% of the users.

Happy to present my latest article in @physreve.bsky.social
! In this paper, I show that the Voter Model can predict individual opinions in a large, heterogeneous online population.

I show that the ubiquitous voter model can effectively predict individual opinions of Twitter users 😎

This marks a new step in the study of the empirical validity of theoretical models for opinion dynamics !

🚨New paper alert! 🚨 How do echo chambers form in signed networks? 🤔 A new study by @avdeville.bsky.social and myself explores the role of structural balance in shaping information flows and inducing echo chambers. 🧵👇
