Journal ArticleDOI

Multirelational organization of large-scale social networks in an online world

TL;DR: This work presents the first empirical large-scale verification of the long-standing structural balance theory, by focusing on the specific multiplex network of friendship and enmity relations, and explores how the interdependence of different network types determines the organization of the social system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantifying the benefits of vehicle pooling with shareability networks

TL;DR: The notion of shareability network is introduced, which allows to model the collective benefits of sharing as a function of passenger inconvenience, and to efficiently compute optimal sharing strategies on massive datasets, and demonstrates the feasibility of a shareable taxi service in New York City.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measuring social dynamics in a massive multiplayer online game

TL;DR: A data set consisting of practically all actions of all players over a period of 3 years from a MMOG played by 300,000 people is compiled, demonstrating the feasibility for establishing a ‘socio-economic laboratory’ which allows to operate at levels of precision approaching those of the natural sciences.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delineating geographical regions with networks of human interactions in an extensive set of countries.

TL;DR: This work uses an extended set of countries and clustering indices to quantify overlaps, revealing that cohesiveness and matching of official regions can also be observed on a second level if spatial resolution of the data is high enough.
Journal ArticleDOI

A century of physics

TL;DR: An analysis of Web of Science data spanning more than 100 years reveals the rapid growth and increasing multidisciplinarity of physics as discussed by the authors, as well its internal map of subdisciplines.
