An Axiomatic Approach to Tie-Strength Measures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Social structures are implied by various interactions between users of a network. We look at event information, where users participate in mutual events. Our goal is to infer the strength of ties between various users given this event information.

A Novel Approach to Design of Truss-Beams for Natural Frequency
Here, we present a novel two-step approach for optimum design of cellular truss-beams based on desired natural frequencies. The proposed approach at- tempts to decrease the design complexities, based on the so called Axiomatic Design, before any eort to solve the physical problem itself. It also serves as a generic approach which nds its generality through dimensional analysis with its accuracy...
متن کاملMeasures of Simmelian Tie Strength, Simmelian Brokerage, and, the Simmelianly Brokered
A set of measures for Simmelian tie strength, Simmelian brokerage, and, being Simmelianly brokered are introduced. The measures are derived from interpretations of a quote from Simmel (1950). The theoretically most informative measure of Simmelian brokerage is based on a complex value measure of Simmelian tie strength reflected in an Hermitian matrix. Also measures based on weight matrices and ...
متن کاملNode centrality in weighted networks: Generalizing degree and shortest paths
Ties often have a strength naturally associated with them that differentiate them from each other. Tie strength has been operationalized as weights. A few network measures have been proposed for weighted networks, including three common measures of node centrality: degree, closeness, and betweenness. However, these generalizations have solely focused on tie weights, and not on the number of tie...
متن کاملMeasuring tie-strength in virtual social networks
Tie-strength has been in the focus of social science research for decades, yet the use of measurement tools or scales has been relatively scarce. The aim of this study was to fill the gap and provide a tool that is able to provide a quantitative and continuous measure of tie strength in social networks. The focus was on virtual communities because the fast expansion of Internet use and the cons...
متن کاملStrut-and-Tie Method for Prediction of Ultimate Shear Capacity of Shear-Strengthened RC deep beams with FRP
The main objective of this study is to propose the Strut-and-Tie method (STM) to predict the shear capacity of simply supported RC deep beams shear-strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP). It is assumed that, the total carried shear force by shear-strengthened RC deep beam provided by three independent resistance, namely diagonal concrete strut due to Strut-and-tie mechanism, ...
