Study Notes
Network Types
- A small-world network is a type of network where most nodes are not neighbors of one another, but most nodes can be reached from every other node in a small number of steps, typically through a short chain of intermediate acquaintances.
Artificial Intelligence
- An artificial neural network is a computational model inspired by the structure and function of the human brain, composed of interconnected nodes or "neurons" that process and transmit information.
Online Communities
- A social networking service is a platform that allows users to create a public or semi-public profile, share content, and connect with others who share similar interests or backgrounds.
Graph Theory
- A flow network is a directed graph where each edge has a capacity and each node, except for the source and sink nodes, has the same total capacity flowing in as flowing out.
Social Structures
- A social group is a set of individuals who share one or more common characteristics, interact with one another, and recognize their membership in the group, often sharing a common identity or purpose.
