Abstract: |
Studies
in social network analysis consider the behavior of a group to be equivalent
to the “sum” of individual be- haviors. However, a
group has to be considered as a com- plex system
where emerging phenomena can appear. In this paper, a formalism
is proposed to resolve this prob- lematic by modeling groups in social networks using pre-
topology as a generalization of the graph theory. We also give an example of
simulation using our formalism |
