Scaling up Group Closeness Maximization
Closeness is a widely-used centrality measure in social network analysis. For a node it indicates the inverse average shortest-path distance to the other nodes of the network. While the identification of the k nodes with highest closeness received significant attention, many applications are actually interested in finding a group of nodes that is central as a whole. For this problem, only recen...
متن کاملTree-connected peer group situations and peer group games
A class of cooperative games is introduced which arises from situations in which a set of agents is hierarchically structured and where potential individual economic abilities interfere with the behavioristic rules induced by the organization structure. These games form a cone generated by a specific class of unanimity games, namely those based on coalitions called peer groups. Different econom...
متن کاملPeer influence: neural mechanisms underlying in-group conformity
People often conform to the behavior of others with whom they identify. However, it is unclear what fundamental mechanisms underlie this type of conformity. Here, we investigate the processes mediating in-group conformity by using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Participants completed a perceptual decision-making task while undergoing fMRI, during which they were exposed to the ju...
متن کاملGroup Formation Among Peer-to-Peer Agents: Learning Group Characteristics
This paper examines the decentralized formation of groups within a peer-to-peer multi-agent system. More specifically, it frames group formation as a clustering problem, and examines how to determine cluster characteristics such as area and density in the absence of information about the entire data set, such as the number of points, the number of clusters, or the maximum distance between point...
متن کاملThe influence of peer behavior as a function of social and cultural closeness: A meta-analysis of normative influence on adolescent smoking initiation and continuation.
Although the influence of peers on adolescent smoking should vary depending on social dynamics, there is a lack of understanding of which elements are most crucial and how this dynamic unfolds for smoking initiation and continuation across areas of the world. The present meta-analysis included 75 studies yielding 237 effect sizes that examined associations between peers' smoking and adolescents...
