A Perspective on Graph Theory and Network ScienceMarko Rodriguez
The graph/network domain has been driven by the creativity of numerous individuals from disparate areas of the academic and the commercial sector. Examples of contributing academic disciplines include mathematics, physics, sociology, and computer science. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the domain, it is difficult for any single individual to objectively realize and speak about the space as a whole. Any presentation of the ideas is ultimately biased by the formal training and expertise of the individual. For this reason, I will simply present on the domain from my perspective---from my personal experiences. More specifically, from my perspective biased by cognitive and computer science.
This is an autobiographical lecture on my life (so far) with graphs/networks.
Social media? It's serious! Understanding the dark side of social mediaIan McCarthy
Research and practice have mostly focused on the “bright side” of social media, aiming to understand and help in leveraging the manifold opportunities afforded by this technology. However, it is increasingly observable that social media present enormous risks for individuals, communities, firms, and even for society as a whole. Examples for this “dark side” of social media include cyberbullying, addictive use, trolling, online witch hunts, fake news, and privacy abuse. In this article, we aim to illustrate the multidimensionality of the dark side of social media and describe the related various undesirable outcomes. To do this, we adapt the established social media honeycomb framework to explain the dark side implications of each of the seven functional building blocks: conversations, sharing, presence, relationships, reputation, groups, and identity. On the basis of these reflections, we present a number of avenues for future research, so as to facilitate a better understanding and use of social media.

The findings of this research study (purchase on Amazon.com) examines the impact social media has on consumers and decision-makers around the world and characterizes the impact of social influence models. The Social Mind research explores the best practices of using social business as a platform to strengthen sustainable methods for working and living in new, interactive and collaborative business world. It identifies key characteristics and insights into the engagement behaviors of influencers and individuals, and how organizations can maximize reach and influence to execute on what we call the new Principals of Engagement in the Millennium.
Social business is dynamically changing the face of human interaction and communications globally. The emergence of new social behaviors and interrelationships between individuals, organizations, thought leaders and influencers are evolving in new and previously unforeseen ways primarily because of social media networks and peer groups.
A disruption is in the making, but this time, human behavior is the driver, not technology. People want and need to get the information they need at the time they desire it, especially from those they consider to be experts. We are returning to the “apple cart” of yesteryear. However, this time around we are armed with digital devices to extend our global ability to talk with the companies and people who inform our decisions.
This paradigm shift is a major communications innovation in all markets, which is radically changing the way people and organizations engage and behave online. There is also a strong link between social networking and what might be called “a new global anthropology” that is developing because of these new behaviors, interactions and interrelationships between cultures enabled through social business.
Over the past three years Vanessa DiMauro, Peter Auditore and myself, all Society for New Communications Research fellows, have embarked on a series of research studies to understand this new and evolving business platform and its impact on social communications and influence.
In this session, we talk about the mobile and social web, and how it shapes economy, individual behavior and well-being, political events, and society as a whole.

Addicted to Social Media
The Internet has a strong capability to connect, mobilize and influence people all over the world. Rapid technological progress has already become a commonplace. Due to the impetuous development of technology, the relationship between people had undergone significant changes, in particular, the tools, by which people communicate with each other. The paper will be focused on social media, in particular, on the human dependency on social media.
Social media has identified the trends in the development of the Internet in the direction of integration, by combining features into single multi-user web-based platforms (Deen, 28). These platforms allow users to chat with friends, read news, watch movies, listen to music, share the information with other users, take part in discussions, create community, and all these opportunities are concentrated on one site. Social Media first appeared with the American portal Classmates.com, in 1995. The project has been very successful, which led to the emergence of more than dozen of similar services in the next few years (The History of Social Networking). Nevertheless, the official start of the boom of social media, in particular, social networks, is considered to be the period of 2003-2004, when there were launched Facebook, MySpace and LinkedIn (The History of Social Networking). It is important to note that LinkedIn was created in order to establish/maintain business contacts, while MySpace and Facebook were based primarily on meeting human need for self-expression.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

I. INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND
The study of Human behavior is much more complicated in
various situations, especially on the spectrum of Social
Networks. The study of individual behavior cannot be
replicated for a group/crowd behavior which can have many
social and behavioral dimensions. If we look at the birds,
when they fly in a group formation, they follow a certain
specific synchronized behavior pattern. Human beings are
not that easy to predict in a social environment. Let’s first
have a look at the individual and crowd behavior’s and does
their comparative analysis.
- Individual Behavior
The way an individual addresses a situations is influenced
by many factors. Some of the key factors which influence
an individual’s attitude can be summarized as;
• Abilities
• Gender
• Race and culture
• Attribution
• Perception
• Attitude
Abilities are the traits a person learns from the
environment around as well as the traits a person is gifted
with by birth. These traits can be intellectual abilities,
physical abilities or self-awareness abilities. Similarly
behavioral changes also tend to be different for different
genders. Race & Culture are two entities in which the race
involves a group of people sharing similar physical
features. Culture on the other hand is defined as the traits,
ideas, customs and traditions one follows. Both race and
culture have great influence in the society. This is
followed byperception which is an intellectual process of
interpreting something that we see or hear in our mind and
use it later to judge or give a verdict. And finally we have
attitude is the learnt reaction of a person over a time span.
All the above factors contribute to the way we behave. We
generally never go into the details about these factors but
they are responsible for whatever we do in life.Similarly
when these individuals are put into organizations where
they have to work in crowded environment’s as a team,
various others factors come into play which include
personal factors, age, gender, religion, marital Status,
experience, intelligence, ability, perception, attitude and
values.
- Crowd Behavior
Crowd behavior is the behavior that is conducted by
individuals in a gathering of people who share a purpose.
They have shown that behavior in crowds is far more
mindful, rational and socially organized. Crowd
psychology, also known as mob psychology, is a branch
of social psychology. Social psychologists have developed
several theories for explaining the ways in which
the psychology of a crowd differs from and interacts with
that of the individuals within it.

Infogain Publication (Infogainpublication.com) ISSN : 2454-1311
www.ijaems.com Page | 2005
Many theories have been propounded by various
psychologists and sociologists to explain why the crowd
behaves in a particular way. Some of them are;
• Le Bon’s Theory[1]
• McDougall’s Theory[2]
• Freud’s Theory[3]
• Allport’s Theory[4]
• Turner’s Theory[5]
Crowd or collectivebehavior isthe kinds of activities
engaged in by sizable but loosely organized groups of
people. Crowd behavior is guided by unique social norms,
which are established by members of the crowd. In short, it
is a combination of like-minded individuals, anonymity,
and shared emotion that leads to crowd behavior.
We have looked at the individual and the crowd behavior
separately. However the insight that individuals in a crowd
generate behavior as opposed to the group is the core of
modern theories. It takes special dimension when we
encounter the social networks and how they depict an
individual’s behavior in a connected environment of
connected crowd behavior. With the availability of social
network data, it has become possible to relate the behavior
of individuals to that of their acquaintances on a large scale.
Social Media
Over the years the social media has brought about a
revolution in the lives of individuals and groups/crowds in
the way they conduct their lives.
Within a few years social media has become an integral part
of the world. Especially young people cannot think of
communication without thinking of online-networks like
Facebook, Google+, and Twitter. If we simply look at the
Facebook, the largest and the most active social media
application, the statistics are mind blowing. As of the third
quarter of 2016, Facebook had 1.79 billion monthly active
users. 823M of those are mobile-only users. There are 1.083
billion daily active users out of which 47% of Facebook
users only access the platform through mobile. 83% of
parents on Facebook are friends with their children.
Facebook adds 500,000 new users every day; 6 new profiles
every second. Worldwide, 38.6% of the online population
use Facebook. The average (mean) number of friends is
338, and the median (midpoint) number of friends is 200.
Users spend an average of 20 minutes per day on the site
with 4 million likes every minute More than 250 billion
photos have been uploaded to Facebook which equates to
350 million photos per day [6].
These are just some of the statistics. It is now important for
us to study the impact of social media on individuals and
groups. Social networks have removed all the
communication and interaction barriers, and now one can
communicate his/her perception and thoughts over a variety
of topics. Crowds are able to share and communicate with
like-minded people and can ask for the input and opinion on
a particular topic. Instead of individual thinking, now we
are moving towards a knowledge core which is the result of
social media and the connected intelligence achieved
through the interconnection of networks. One of the impact
of social networking sites is that it has united people on a
huge platform for the achievement of some specific
objective. This is very important to bring the change in a
society.As humans tend to bow to peer pressure in real life
and as well in social media, social media influences their
ability to think independently. People seem to be more open
to peer pressure within social networks.
Having said that, the long term effects of the social media
revolution are not known yet neither on the society as a
whole nor on the individuals. Therefore, a thorough
reflection is indispensable. Since the effect of social media
is subtle and develops over time.
One of the major component of social media’s development
is certainly the connected intelligence. All the
communication takes place on the digital interconnected
networks, thus possessing in its millions of servers the
connected intelligence needed to visualize the crowd and
individual behaviors.
Connected Intelligence
Connected Intelligence deals with the consequences of
massive global networking and what it can lead to when it
reaches a critical mass of "connected intelligence." Will the
sum total of people's connected intelligence will be more
intelligent than any one person's intelligence, is one
question which stirs our mind. This leads to the possibility
that we are undergoing one of the greatest insights into the
evolution of our species. Connected intelligence may be the
next step in the evolution of human intelligence. The
evolution of connected intelligence is presented below;

The burning question which is explored here concerns how
to integrate individual and collective concerns in user
centered environments. More importantly, what are
personalization and recommendation mechanisms that exist
for collectives, individuals and crowds in communities?
This eventually leads to virtual communities that sha
acquire individual and collective knowledge.
Through connected intelligence, data scientists extract
relevant information from social channels and integrate it
with additional data to get insight into individual and crowd
behavior patterns. This allows them to go beyond social
media listening; giving people the full context and a strong
foundation on which to base knowledge driven paradigms.
II. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Our research methodology is descriptive in nature. Once
gone through the Individual and crowd behavior, we need to
develop a model which will integrate the two into connected
intelligence thus giving an output for the knowledge
management tool.
Model Development
Having looked at various dimensions of the human
behaviors, now we are in a position to design a sustainable
Model.
Fig.2: Designed Model
The designed model has the following five
segments/components.
- Individual Behavior
- Crowd Behavior
- Group Influence/Behavior
- Collective Intelligence
- Knowledge Management

harness the power of large numbers of people connected
together through Internet and other technologies to better
solve a range of business, scientific, and societal problems.
The burning question which is explored here concerns how
ividual and collective concerns in user
centered environments. More importantly, what are
personalization and recommendation mechanisms that exist
for collectives, individuals and crowds in communities?
This eventually leads to virtual communities that share and
acquire individual and collective knowledge.

Let’s have a look at the individual components of the
designed model.

model that seeks to elaborate individual behavior as a result
of internal and external factors or influences combined
together. It consists of the following attributes of
individuality;
- Motivation
- Abilities
- Role Perception
- Situational Factors.

Here we see the external conditions imposed on the group.
The group is affected by the overall strategy, authority
structures, formal regulations, resources, performance
management system and the organizational culture. Group
member resources pertain to task- relevant and intellectual
abilities of individual members. In the group structure the
structural variables include roles, norms, status and the size
of the group. Group process is centered towards
communications, decision making, leadership and conflict.
Group tasks include standardized complex and simple tasks.
Fig.5: Connected Intelligence Model
Collective intelligence model depicts is shared or group
intelligence that emerges from thecollaboration, collective
efforts, and competition of many individuals and appears in
consensus decision making.
Fig.6: Knowledge Management
This Knowledge Management Model attempts offers a more
an overview of the knowledge management process. The
following three broad categories overlap and interact with
one another.
- Knowledge creation and Sensing
- Knowledge sharing and dissemination
- Knowledge organizing and capture
It also shows that which of the three categories are more
people oriented; and which are more, technology focused.
The last fundamental design model is the integration of the
models shown from Fig-3 to Fig-6, this coming up with an
integrated approach as shown in the designed model (Fig-
2).
III. CONCLUSION
The study of Human behavior, Social Networks and
Connected Intelligence have shown a lot of bonding in
relation to the individual and crowd behaviors. This area of
research has been neglected for a long time. In our
connected world intelligence is shared among individuals
and groups which brings in a lot of complexities which
needs to be addressed. More importantly there is a need to
come up with a modelling approach so as to implement it in
a social media setting where connected networks provide
connected intelligence which becomes an input to the
knowledge management.
