This week, I've recreated the results shown in Baumann, Fabian, et al.'s paper "Modeling echo chambers and polarization dynamics in social networks" (Physical Review Letters 124.4 (2020): 048301), specifically Figure 2. Using Seldon, I generated the dataset with the same parameters as in the paper, achieving good agreement with the results. Numerous minor fixes were made to the code to ensure that (plot size adjustment was not working due to the bug, Interval Clustering was failing with identifying the clusters in borderline cases), and the successful outcome demonstrates that these adjustments were effective. I also added the histogram plot for the clusters, as it was a natural addition to the pool of the existing plots.
