Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social information networks concept was introduced or perceived by researchers Emile Durkheim and Ferdinand Tonnies as social groups as early as 1890’s . However Tonnies argued that social groups can exist as personal and direct social ties that either link individuals who share values and beliefs or impersonal, formal and instrumental social links but Durkheim gave a non individualistic explanation of social facts arguing that social phenomena arise when interacting individuals constitute a reality that can no longer be accounted for in terms of the properties of individual actors. Georg Simmel analyzed the network size on interaction and examined and likelihood of interaction in loosely knit networks rather than groups.
Download or read book Special Subset Vertex Subgraphs for Social Networks written by W. B. Vasantha Kandasamy and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book authors for the first time introduce the new notion of special subset vertex subgraph of subset vertex graphs introduced recently. These subset vertex graphs takes the vertex set values from the power set P(X) of any set X. The main speciality of these subset vertex graphs is that once a set of subsets from P(X) is given, the edges of the graph are fixed in a unique way, so for a given collection of subset vertices the graph is always unique.
Download or read book Subset Vertex Multigraphs and Neutrosophic Multigraphs for Social Multi Networks written by W. B. Vasantha Kandasamy and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2019 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book authors introduce the notion of subset vertex multigraphs for the first time. The study of subset vertex graphs was introduced in 2018, however they are not multiedged, further they were unique once the vertex subsets are given. These subset vertex multigraphs are also unique once the vertex subsets are given and the added advantage is that the number of common elements between two vertex subsets accounts for the number of edges between them, when there is no common element there is no edge between them.

This book was released on with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book authors study special type of subset vertex multi subgraphs; these multi subgraphs can be directed or otherwise. Another special feature of these subset vertex multigraphs is that we are aware of the elements in each vertex set and how it affects the structure of both subset vertex multisubgraphs and edge multisubgraphs. It is pertinent to record at this juncture that certain ego centric directed multistar graphs become empty on the removal of one edge, there by theorising the importance, and giving certain postulates how to safely form ego centric multi networks.
Download or read book Multigraphs for Multi Networks written by W. B. Vasantha Kandasamy and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2019 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book any network which can be represented as a multigraph is referred to as a multi network. Several properties of multigraphs have been described and developed in this book. When multi path or multi walk or multi trail is considered in a multigraph, it is seen that there can be many multi walks, and so on between any two nodes and this makes multigraphs very different.

Download or read book Social Network Analysis Applied to Team Sports Analysis written by Filipe Manuel Clemente and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explaining how graph theory and social network analysis can be applied to team sports analysis, This book presents useful approaches, models and methods that can be used to characterise the overall properties of team networks and identify the prominence of each team player. Exploring the different possible network metrics that can be utilised in sports analysis, their possible applications and variances from situation to situation, the respective chapters present an array of illustrative case studies. Identifying the general concepts of social network analysis and network centrality metrics, readers are shown how to generate a methodological protocol for data collection. As such, the book provides a valuable resource for students of the sport sciences, sports engineering, applied computation and the social sciences.

Download or read book Evolution of Social Networks written by Patrick Doreian and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book answers the question of whether we can apply evolutionary theories to our understanding of the development of social structures. Social networks have increasingly become the focus of many social scientists as a way of analyzing these social structures. While many powerful network analytic tools have been developed and applied to a wide range of empirical phenomena, understanding the evolution of social organization still requires theories and analyses of social network evolutionary processes. Researchers from a variety of disciplines have combined their efforts in what is an indication of some very promising future research and the work represented in this volume provides a basis for a sustained analysis of the evolution of social life.

Download or read book The Influence of Technology on Social Network Analysis and Mining written by Tansel Özyer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of social networks was originated in social and business communities. In recent years, social network research has advanced significantly; the development of sophisticated techniques for Social Network Analysis and Mining (SNAM) has been highly influenced by the online social Web sites, email logs, phone logs and instant messaging systems, which are widely analyzed using graph theory and machine learning techniques. People perceive the Web increasingly as a social medium that fosters interaction among people, sharing of experiences and knowledge, group activities, community formation and evolution. This has led to a rising prominence of SNAM in academia, politics, homeland security and business. This follows the pattern of known entities of our society that have evolved into networks in which actors are increasingly dependent on their structural embedding General areas of interest to the book include information science and mathematics, communication studies, business and organizational studies, sociology, psychology, anthropology, applied linguistics, biology and medicine.
Download or read book Graph Theory and Complex Networks written by Maarten van Steen and published by Maarten Van Steen. This book was released on 2010 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to explain the basics of graph theory that are needed at an introductory level for students in computer or information sciences. To motivate students and to show that even these basic notions can be extremely useful, the book also aims to provide an introduction to the modern field of network science. Mathematics is often unnecessarily difficult for students, at times even intimidating. For this reason, explicit attention is paid in the first chapters to mathematical notations and proof techniques, emphasizing that the notations form the biggest obstacle, not the mathematical concepts themselves. This approach allows to gradually prepare students for using tools that are necessary to put graph theory to work: complex networks. In the second part of the book the student learns about random networks, small worlds, the structure of the Internet and the Web, peer-to-peer systems, and social networks. Again, everything is discussed at an elementary level, but such that in the end students indeed have the feeling that they: 1.Have learned how to read and understand the basic mathematics related to graph theory. 2.Understand how basic graph theory can be applied to optimization problems such as routing in communication networks. 3.Know a bit more about this sometimes mystical field of small worlds and random networks. There is an accompanying web site www.distributed-systems.net/gtcn from where supplementary material can be obtained, including exercises, Mathematica notebooks, data for analyzing graphs, and generators for various complex networks.
