A Network-Based Threshold Model for the Spreading of fads in Society and Markets
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the behavior of a threshold model for the spreading of fads and similar phenomena in society. The model is giving the fad dynamics and is intended to be confined to an underlying network structure. We investigate the whole parameter space of the fad dynamics on three types of network models. The dynamics we discover is rich and highly dependent on the underlying network structure. For some range of the parameter space, for all types of substrate networks, there are a great variety of sizes and life-lengths of the fads—what one see in real-world social and economical systems.

A computational model and convergence theorem for rumor dissemination in social networks
The spread of rumors, which are known as unverified statements of uncertain origin, may threaten the society and it's controlling, is important for national security councils of countries. If it would be possible to identify factors affecting spreading a rumor (such as agents’ desires, trust network, etc.) then, this could be used to slow down or stop its spreading. Therefore, a computational m...
متن کاملModels of EFL Learners’ Vocabulary Development: Spreading Activation vs. Hierarchical Network Model
Semantic network approaches view organization or representation of internal lexicon in the form of either spreading or hierarchical system identified, respectively, as Spreading Activation Model (SAM) and Hi- erarchical Network Model (HNM). However, the validity of either model is amongst the intact issues in the literature which can be studied through basing the instruction compatible wi...

متن کاملA DSS-Based Dynamic Programming for Finding Optimal Markets Using Neural Networks and Pricing
One of the substantial challenges in marketing efforts is determining optimal markets, specifically in market segmentation. The problem is more controversial in electronic commerce and electronic marketing. Consumer behaviour is influenced by different factors and thus varies in different time periods. These dynamic impacts lead to the uncertain behaviour of consumers and therefore harden the t...
متن کاملDesign, Development and Evaluation of an Orange Sorter Based on Machine Vision and Artificial Neural Network Techniques
ABSTRACT- The high production of orange fruit in Iran calls for quality sorting of this product as a requirement for entering global markets. This study was devoted to the development of an automatic fruit sorter based on size. The hardware consisted of two units. An image acquisition apparatus equipped with a camera, a robotic arm and controller circuits. The second unit consisted of a robotic...
