Title
Dynamics of Social Roles in the Context of Group Evolution in the Blogosphere
Abstract
An important aspect of research carried out on social networks is the analysis of community dynamics. It can have many aspects related to size of community, existing groups and roles performed by users in them. This article focuses on the problem of studying the impact of the types of group reorganization on transitions between user roles. A set of roles has been defined and each role has been assigned to users having similar behavior, and main types of events have been identified that affect groups during their life cycle. A model for the evolution of the community has been developed. Analyzes of transitions between roles of given users as a result of individual events, which have a significant impact on the changing roles in the community by the users, have been carried out. The experiments have been performed on data from the Salon24 - Polish popular blog portal.
