🧠 How It Works

Homophily: Particles in the same cluster (color) attract each other. "Birds of a feather..."

Clustering: Each group pulls toward its centroid. Forms tight echo chambers.

Rewiring: Random particles switch groups. Introduces noise/exploration.

Increase homophily β†’ Watch echo chambers form!

πŸ”¬ Try This

1. Set Homophily to 50-80%

2. Watch clusters separate

3. Add Clustering 30-50%

4. See tight echo chambers form

5. Add Rewiring 5-10% to prevent total isolation
