ABSTRACT
In this work,we characterize a phenomenon called social synchrony that occurs in the online social networks. Social synchrony is a kind of collective social activity associated with some event where the number of people who participate in the activity first increases exponentially and then decreases exponentially. Also, some users continually participate in the activity for a considerable period of time. We define this phenomenon and propose a method to detect it.

CSE '09: Proceedings of the 2009 International Conference on Computational Science and Engineering - Volume 04We propose a computational framework to predict synchronyof action in online social media. Synchrony is a temporalsocial network phenomenon in which a large number of usersare observed to mimic a certain action over a period of timewith sustained ...
