The enormous increase of popularity and use of the worldwide web has led in the recent years to important changes in the ways people communicate. An interesting example of this fact is provided by the now very popular social annotation systems, through which users annotate resources (such as web pages or digital photographs) with keywords known as "tags." Understanding the rich emergent structu...
متن کاملSocial Influence, Binary Decisions and Collective Dynamics∗
In this paper we address the general question of how social influence determines collective outcomes for large populations of individuals faced with binary decisions. First, we define conditions under which the behavior of individuals making binary decisions can be described in terms of what we call an influence-response function: a one-dimensional function of the (weighted) number of individua...

In our strongly interconnected society, social influence plays a prominent role in many self-organized phenomena such as herding in cultural markets, the spread of ideas and innovations, and the amplification of fears duri...
متن کاملCapturing collective conflict dynamics with sparse social circuits
A central problem in the study of collective behavior is how functionally significant macroscopic properties arise out of individual or microscopic interactions. The most common approach to studying the relationship between the micro and macro in biological systems is dynamical systems and pattern formation (for examples, see Sumpter, 2006; Ball, 2009; Couzin, 2009; Payne et al., 2013). A compl...
