This paper examines the location traces of 489 users of a location sharing social network for relationships between the users' mobility patterns and structural properties of their underlying social network. We introduce a novel set of location-based features for analyzing the social context of a geographic region, including location entropy, which measures the diversity of unique visitors of a location. Using these features, we provide a model for predicting friendship between two users by analyzing their location trails. Our model achieves significant gains over simpler models based only on direct properties of the co-location histories, such as the number of co-locations. We also show a positive relationship between the entropy of the locations the user visits and the number of social ties that user has in the network. We discuss how the offline mobility of users can have implications for both researchers and designers of online social networks.

The document discusses prototyping and provides examples of different types of prototypes including paper prototypes, digital prototypes, storyboards, role plays, and space prototypes. It explains that prototyping is used to make ideas tangible and test reactions from users in order to gain insights. Prototypes should be iterated on and fail early to push ideas further and save time and money. Both low and high fidelity prototypes are mentioned as ways to test ideas at different stages of the design process.

The document discusses assortativity and dissortativity in complex networks. It defines assortativity as "nodes with similar degree connect preferably" and dissortativity as "nodes with low degree try to connect with highly connected nodes." Several studies are summarized that examine assortativity in social networks like Twitter. Happiness was found to be assortative in Twitter reciprocal reply networks. Distance from one's typical location on Twitter was also found to correlate with expressed happiness levels. Assortative networks are described as being more resilient to attacks while disassortative networks are more vulnerable.

The purpose of this workshop is twofold. A primary goal is to provide researchers with a basic overview of spatial analysis. A secondary goal is to give attention to issues in GIS and spatial analysis that may be relevant to researchers planning to work with location data and unique geographies in confidential data sets in the Texas Census Research Data Center.
The workshop will consist of three sessions. Each session will be led by Dr. Corey Sparks, Assistant Professor at UTSA's College of Public Policy. Dr. Spark's research focuses on statistical demography, Geographic Information Systems and the application of modern statistical methods to problems in demography and health. His teaching interests focus on use and application of advanced statistical techniques including hazards analysis, multivariate methods and spatial statistics in human population analysis.
A Thin Slice Perspective On The Accuracy Of First ImpressionsLeslie Schulte
This document summarizes an article published in an Elsevier journal. The summary is as follows:
1) The article discusses the accuracy of first impressions based on thin slices of social behavior of varying lengths.
2) Accuracy is defined as the correlation between a judge's ratings of a target and the target's own criterion scores.
3) The study examined how accuracy is affected by the construct judged (personality, affect, intelligence), length of exposure (5-300 seconds), and location of the slice within the interaction (beginning, middle, end).
Livehoods: Understanding cities through social mediaJustin Cranshaw
Extended version of ICWSM 2012 presentation introducing our work on http://livehoods.org.
To reference this work, cite the Cranshaw et al paper: The Livehoods Project: Utilizing Social Media to Understand the Dynamics of a City.
This document provides an introduction to social network analysis. It discusses how social network analysis views social relationships as connections between individuals, and uses tools to systematically study these connections. The key topics covered include:
- Why social networks are important to study as they influence information and resource sharing
- The basic data elements in social network analysis, including nodes to represent individuals and edges to represent relationships between nodes
- Different levels of network data, from ego networks to complete networks
- Common ways to represent network data structurally, including graphs, matrices, and lists
- An overview of how social network analysis can help answer questions about how social relationships influence individual behaviors and the structure of social hierarchies.
This document discusses social network analysis and provides examples of social networks. It begins by defining what a social network is - a set of nodes connected by edges that can represent people and their relationships. It then provides examples of social networks from different domains like disease transmission, collaboration networks, and online networks. Key concepts in social network analysis like centrality, clustering, distance, and community structure are introduced. The document emphasizes that network structure can influence outcomes more than individual traits and discusses using network analysis to understand topics like information diffusion and disease spread.
The document discusses social networks on the web, also known as web-based social networks (WBSNs). WBSNs allow users to create profiles and connect with other users. There are over 200 million user accounts across many social networks. Relationships on WBSNs can be explicitly stated and range from family to casually knowing someone. Social networks can be modeled and analyzed as graphs. Properties like average path length and clustering help explain how networks grow and function as "small worlds". Computing trust values between users who may not be directly connected is one example of how social networks can be analyzed.

This document discusses key concepts in social network analysis including structuralism, social capital theory, homophily, reciprocity, and centrality. It addresses how (1) social networks can be viewed as social capital that individuals use to achieve goals; (2) both network structure and individual characteristics influence each other; and (3) real-world networks tend to exhibit properties like homophily where similar individuals connect, reciprocity in relationships, and certain influential centralized individuals.
Centrality in Time- Dependent NetworksMason Porter
My slides for my keynote talk at the NetSci 2018 (#NetSci2018) conference in Paris, France (June 2018). This talk will take place on Thursday 13 June in the morning.
Social network analysis examines the connections between individuals, groups, organizations, or other social entities. It focuses on interactions rather than individual behavior. Network analysis can be applied across many disciplines to study how the structure of relationships influences functioning. Early research in network analysis developed in fields like sociology and psychology to study topics like homophily and the influence of relationships. Key concepts in network analysis include nodes, edges, degree, clustering coefficients, and graph diameter. "Small world" networks are highly clustered with short path lengths, characteristics often seen in real-world networks. Social capital research also examines how network connections impact groups, organizations, and individuals.

Social network analysis examines the connections between individuals, groups, organizations, or other social entities. It focuses on interactions rather than individual behavior. Network analysis can be applied across many disciplines to study how the structure of relationships influences functioning. Early research in fields like sociology, anthropology, and educational psychology helped develop concepts still used today, such as examining homophily and interaction patterns. Key concepts in network analysis include nodes, edges, degree, clustering coefficients, and graph diameter. "Small world" networks are highly clustered with short path lengths, characteristics seen in many real-world networks. Social capital research also examines how network connections impact groups, organizations, and individuals.
The presentation discusses research on interpreting visual regional planning scenarios. Interviews with planners found the regional scenario was challenging to interpret and did not clearly communicate community values. Further research is needed to establish formal visual conventions for regional planning and test scenarios with textual support and public participation. Improving scenario communication could help implement regional visions through local decisions over decades.
Comparison of Online Social Relations in terms of Volume vs. Interaction: A C...Haewoon Kwak
This document analyzes user interactions and social relationships in Cyworld, a large online social network in Korea. It compares the declared online friendships to actual interaction data from billions of guestbook messages over 2.5 years. Key findings include:
1) The network exhibits heterogeneous relationships and assortative mixing, with a few highly connected users. Interactions between friends are highly reciprocal but disparities exist based on number of friends.
2) Microscopic analysis found that users with fewer than 200 friends have a dominant interaction partner, while those with over 1,000 friends interact more evenly. Triadic relationships are common.
3) Additional observations showed that more online friends correlated with more user activity, up to around
Networks & Health
This document provides an introduction and overview of social network analysis and its relevance to health research. It discusses key concepts such as what networks are, different types of network data including one-mode and two-mode data, and different levels of analysis including ego networks, partial networks, and complete networks. The document also discusses why networks matter for health through connectionist mechanisms like diffusion and positional mechanisms like social roles. Overall, the document serves as a high-level introduction to social network concepts and their application to health research.
Network Data Collection
The document discusses collecting social network data. It covers three main topics:
1) Introduces social network analysis and why networks are important in social science. Networks matter because of connections that allow diffusion and because positions in networks influence roles and behavior.
2) Discusses research design considerations for collecting network data, including specifying relations of interest based on theoretical mechanisms, boundary selection, and sampling approaches.
3) Addresses accuracy of network survey data and how to handle inaccurate or missing data. The goal is to systematically understand connections between actors using empirical network data and analysis methods.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

On Facebook, we maintain a
set of social connection we
typically call Facebook
friends.

Outline:
Goal: Define a set of observable properties of physical places
that convey information about the people that visit the location
and social interactions that there.
Evaluation: We will evaluate these properties on a prediction
task. We will attempting to discern Facebook friendships from
non-friendships based on the co-location network of the users.

properties of the location histories.

Co-location
Suppose A and B are co-located.
How might we deduce if they are
actually friends?
1. We can infer based on how they
socialize and interact
• We can infer based on how many other
times they’ve been co-located in the past
• We can infer based the context (where
they are and what they’re doing)
A B
A and B were co-located

If we just infer based on 2. we might guess that they are friends, when
it’s very likely they are not.

This example motivates two hypotheses: that the number
of co-locations of two people is a poor indicator of their
relationship between them, and that context about the
location can help in prediction.

One Option:Location Diversity
22. 22
Location Diversity
For a given location we define:
Frequency: total number of observations at the location
User Count: total number of users observed at the location
Entropy: the entropy of the distribution of observation of
distinct users
Location diversity helps us identify the locations where chance co-
locations are most likely. Locations with high diversity have more
chance encounters.

Connection to Biological Diversity:
Ecologists have been using entropy to
study location for over 50 years.
Uses: habitat determination, health of
an ecosystem, land use determinations
for conservation

The history of unique people that visit a
location over time tells us a great deal of
information about that location.
This in turn provides insight into the individuals
that visit the location, and the social
interactions that occur there.

We used this general principal to define other
potentially useful features of co-location data.
36. 36
Feature Categories
Description
Intensity and
Duration
The size and spatial and temporal range of the set
of co-locations.
Location Diversity
Location diversity measures of the locations where
the users were co-located.
Specificity
Whether the locations the users were co-located are
“shared” with the community or “specific” to them.
Structural Properties
Relevant structural properties of the co-location
graph that are indicative of friendship.

Structural Properties
Relevant structural properties of the co-location
graph that are indicative of friendship.
These features use shallow properties
of the co-location history: how many
times, how many places, what time of
day, etc.

derived from the history of location
observations, such as the location entropy.

The Data
489 users with at least 1 month of tracking data from Locaccino
Area: Restricted to users in the Pittsburgh metro area
Recruitment: some from formal user studies, some were invited
friends of participants, other randomly joined
System use is possibly across non-overlapping time intervals
About 90% of the users were laptop users
In all over 4 million location observations
40. 40
Comparing the networks
Social Network Co-location Network
Intersection (co-located
friends)
Num Edges 1007 3636 360
Our goal it to differentiate meaningful edges in the co-locations
from co-locations of chance.
Co-location among users is pervasive, yet co-location among
friends is comparatively rare.
We would like to predict whether two users are friends from their
co-location history alone.
41. 41
Evaluation
Classifiers: trained 3 AdaBoost classifiers (with decision
stumps).
• One only used Intensity and Duration features
• One used Diversity, Structural, and Specificity features
• One used all features
Baseline: we classify solely based on the number of times the
users were co-located.
Goal: Compare Intensity and Duration features to
Diversity, Structural, and Specificity features.

Using features such a location entropy significantly improves
performance over shallow features such as number of co-locations

This highlights the variability in
online social network ties with
respect to behavior.
Overall classifier performance was
good for testing our hypotheses,
but was not great for classification
purposes.
Accuracy is high, but
precision/recall trade-offs are poor
do to unbalanced class
proportions (many more non-
friends than friends)
If the end goal is classification,
perhaps more specialized
approaches might be best.
45. 45
Additional Findings
We also looked at the relationship between an
individuals location history, and the number of
Facebook friends a user has.
We found a convincing positive relationship between
the entropy of places a user goes to and the number
friends the user has.
46. 46
Correlation of mobility features with number of friends
The location diversity variables and the mobility regularity variables show very
strong correlations.
Users that have irregular routines, and users who visit diverse locations have
more connections in the Locaccino social network.
47. 47
Limitations
Many users, spread over different time periods.
Most of the users were laptop users, which offers a
course approximation of mobility.
Population is homogenous.
48. 48
Future Work
Non binary ties:
Numeric ties -- tie strength
from colocation
Categorical ties --
relationship types
More data from smart phones
More specialized learning
models

User Mobility
Look at the history of locations of each user
We define a set of features of the location history of each user that is
predictive of the number of friends they have in the Locacciono network.
53. 53
User Mobility Features
Description
Intensity and
Duration
These features describe the size and spatial and temporal
range of the set observations of the user.
Location Diversity
These features describe the diversity of observations
collected at the locations the user visits.
Regularity
These features describe temporal regularity of the location
observations of the user. Do their observations follow a
regular routine or are they random?

Why do we want to do this?
The relationship between online social networks and
physical location is understudied.
Partitioning the social graph is a hard and important
problem
Could have implications in creating better (context
based) social network privacy controls
