Abstract:

Given a large number (notationally m ) of users' (members or voters) preferences as inputs over a large number of items or candidates (notationally n ), preference queries leverage different preference aggregation methods to aggregate individual preferences in a systematic manner and come up with a single output (either a complete order or top- k , ordered or unordered) that is most representative of the users' preferences. The goal of this 1.5 hour lecture style tutorial is to adapt different preference aggregation methods from social choice theories, summarize how existing research has handl

Discussions about disclosing individual genetic research results include calls to consider participants’ preferences. In this study, parents of Boston Children’s Hospital patients set preferences for disclosure based on disease preventability and severity, and could exclude mental health, developmental, childhood degenerative, and adult-onset disorders. Participants reviewed hypothetical reports and reset preferences, if desired. Among 661 participants who initially wanted all results (64%), 1% reset preferences. Among 336 participants who initially excluded at least one category (36%), 38% re

Abstract:

Driven by experience and social impact of the new life, user preferences continue to change over time. In order to make up for the shortcomings of existing geographic social network models that often cannot obtain user dynamic preferences, a time-series geographic social network model was constructed to detect user dynamic preferences, a dynamic preference value model was built for user dynamic preference evaluation, and a dynamic preferences group query (DPG) was proposed in this paper . In order to optimize the efficiency of the DPG query algorithm, the UTC-tree index user timing check-in re

Prior research is synthesized and extended to build a heuristic model of social ties and supportive communication in SNSs that considers network-based variables (i.e., social capital, preference for weak ties) as mechanisms that link the use of SNSs to the supportive messages

Purpose Food plays an important role in every culture around the world. Recently, cuisine preference analysis has become a popular research topic. However, most of these studies are conducted through questionnaires and interviews, which are highly limited by the time, cost and scope of data collection, especially when facing large-scale survey studies. Some researchers have, therefore, attempted to mine cuisine preferences based on online recipes, while this approach cannot reveal food preference from people’s perspective.

The empirical research on systematic preference assessment has greatly advanced the field's understanding of how to identify the preferences of individuals with nonsymbolic and limited symbolic communication skills. The purpose of this paper is to translate this research into guidelines for planning systematic preference assessments that strive to reduce the risk of missing or misinterpreting the person

Abstract:

Accurate modelling of complex social systems, where people interact with each other and those interactions change over time, has been a research challenge for many years. This study proposes an evolutionary Digital Twin-Oriented Complex Networked System (DT-CNS) framework that considers heterogeneous node features and changeable connection preferences. We create heterogeneous preference mutation mechanisms to characterise nodes’ adaptive decisions on preference mutation in response to interaction patterns and epidemic risks. In this space, we use nodes’ interaction utilities to characterise th

Abstract:

A social recommendation system has attracted a lot of attention recently in research communities. Traditional social recommendation algorithms are often based on batch machine learning methods that suffer from several critical limitations, for example, a cost of training is extremely expensive in each time new user ratings arrive, unable to capture the change of the users preferences over time. The proposed system is a new online social movie recommendation framework from the view point of online graph regularized user preference learning OGRPL , which incorporates the user item collaborative

Abstract:

Twitter's user behaviour data is crucial for studying user patterns and content recommendation. To achieve this goal, the paper first preprocesses a Twitter user dataset obtained from Kaggle. The dataset includes over 40,000 objects in JSON format, focusing on users who tweeted on trending topics and had at least 100 followers and were following at least 100 other accounts. This filtering helps to exclude spam and empty accounts. The study constructs a user-hashtag matrix and applies label encoding technology to convert it into a numerical matrix. The Thompson Sampling algorithm is then applie

Abstract:

The concept of residential housing preferences has been studied across multiple disciplines, with extensive literature supporting both stated and revealed preference methods. This study argues that both preference types, stated and revealed, should be assessed concurrently to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of residential housing choices. To provide evidence, this research used findings from a public participation GIS survey that identified the stated housing preferences associated with three categories of urban residents, which were called urban “tribes”. We implemented an analytic

Abstract:

Paying attention to impacts of behavioral factor on energy efficiency (EE) investments, this study attempts to identify preference characteristics affecting EE investments. We model households’ EE investments with time, risk, and social preferences, conduct a survey, and empirically examine the effects of the preference characteristics on home energy retrofit decisions in Korea. We find that the research hypotheses for risk and social preferences that we are derived from the model are supported while those for time preference are partially supported. The results are summarized as follows. Firs

Abstract:

Despite the surging appropriation of social media by marketers for communicative marketing of brands, what remains under-explored in literature is the capacity of social media platforms to influence student preferences for brands. This research gap is ironic given the growing literature on the potential of self-images shared on social media to influence consumers’ product preferences and purchase intentions. Drawing on Media Richness Theory, agency, extant literature and authors’ personal reflections on social media adoption for brand selection by students, this theoretical study examines how

Abstract:

This research tests if political discussion influences policy preference. The literature greatly stresses the non-rational nature of political decision-making. Rational policy preferences require learning specific details in a competitive political environment. Yet, research shows that most people do not have the skills to understand policy. Social networking is one way to help people understand policy. Social network influence on policy preferences, however, is mostly ignored. We show that the likelihood of supporting a policy increases when one's social network supports a party that advocate

Abstract:

Tourists spend a good portion of their travel budget on food and beverages. Culinary preference knowledge should thus be important to numerous stakeholders. Little is, however, known about the determinants of culinary preferences of international tourists. Furthermore, in the context of developing countries, very little has been published about cuisine in tourism. The purpose of this research is to identify the determinants of culinary preferences of international tourists to South Africa. A newly developed questionnaire based on literature was completed by 627 international tourists. Five cul

Three studies tested the hypothesis that human mate choice psychology uses a Euclidean algorithm to integrate mate preferences into estimates of mate value. In Study 1, a series of agent-based models identify a pattern of results relatively unique to mating markets where individuals high in Euclidean mate value experience greater power of choice: strong preference fulfillment overall and correlations between mate value and (a) preference fulfillment, (b) ideal standards, and (c) partner mate value.

Types of privacy preferences and their measurement have been obtained through factor analysis. Two prevalent measures are the Privacy Preference Scale (Marshall, 1974) and the Privacy Questionnaire (Pedersen, 1979, 1982). In their development, each yielded six privacy preference scales (some with similar names). To evaluate the comparability of the scales, an analysis was completed using the responses of 174 research participants on the two instruments. Correlations revealed little similarity between the scales of the two measures. Factor analyses showed the Privacy Questionnaire to be more st

Although children and young people in schools should be asked for their informed consent to participate in research, they rarely have a say in what research takes place in their school. We draw upon debates about youth participation in research to explore young people's preferences about their involvement in research and how they want to be treated by researchers. To do so, we reflect on the process of co-creating a guide for involving young people in social research with a Student Research Committee and their teacher; this involved group discussions, ranking exercises and other interactive se
