Homophily and Triadic Closure in Evolving Social Networks
We present a new network model accounting for homophily and triadic closure in the evolution of social networks. In particular, in our model, each node is characterized by a number of features and the probability of a link between two nodes depends on common features. The bipartite network of the actors and features evolves according to a dynamics that depends on three parameters that respectiv...
متن کاملUncovering the Formation of Triadic Closure in Social Networks
The triad is one of the most basic human groups in social networks. Understanding factors affecting the formation of triads will help reveal the underlying mechanisms that govern the emergence and evolution of complex social networks. In this paper, we study an interesting problem of decoding triadic closure in social networks. Specifically, for a given closed triad (a group of three people who...
متن کاملA Will Triadic Closure Strengthen Ties in Social Networks?
The social triad—a group of three people—is one of the simplest and most fundamental social groups. Extensive network and social theories have been developed to understand its structure, such as triadic closure and social balance. Over the course of a triadic closure—the transition from two ties to three among three users, the strength dynamics of its social ties, however, are much less well un...
متن کاملTriadic closure dynamics drives scaling-laws in social multiplex networks
Social networks exhibit scaling laws for several structural characteristics, such as degree distribution, scaling of the attachment kernel and clustering coefficients as a function of node degree. A detailed understanding if and how these scaling laws are inter-related is missing so far, let alone whether they can be understood through a common, dynamical principle. We propose a simple model fo...
متن کاملHomophily in Online Social Networks
We develop a parsimonious and tractable dynamic social network formation model in which agents interact in overlapping social groups. The model allows us to analyse network properties and homophily patterns simultaneously. We derive analytical expressions for the distributions of degree and, importantly, of homophily indices, using mean-field approximations. We test our model using a large data...
