One example is the folksonomy, a tripartite structure of users,resources, and tags -- labels collaboratively applied by the users to theresources in order to impart meaningful structure on an otherwiseundifferentiated database. Here we propose a mathematical model of suchtripartite structures which represents them as random hypergraphs. We show thatit is possible to calculate many properties of this model exactly in the limitof large network size and we compare the results against observations of a realfolksonomy, that of the on-line photography web site Flickr. We show that insome cases the model matches the properties of the observed network well, whilein others there are significant differences, which we find to be attributableto the practice of multiple tagging, i.e., the application by a single user ofmany tags to one resource, or one tag to many resources.}, author = {Ghoshal, Gourab and Zlatic, Vinko and Caldarelli, Guido and Newman, M.

A notable example is that of the folksonomy, an online process where users collaboratively employ tags to resources to impart structure to an otherwise undifferentiated database. In a recent paper[1] we proposed a mathematical model that represents these structures as tripartite hypergraphs and defined basic topological quantities of interest. In this paper we extend our model by defining additional quantities such as edge distributions, vertex similarity and correlations as well as clustering. We then empirically measure these quantities on two real life folksonomies, the popular online photo sharing site Flickr and the bookmarking site CiteULike. We find that these systems share similar qualitative features with the majority of complex networks that have been previously studied. We propose that the quantities and methodology described here can be used as a standard tool in measuring the structure of tagged networks. }, author = {Zlatic, Vinko and Ghoshal, Gourab and Caldarelli, Guido}, interhash = {7dfecf6636651d0b42d569a2ebb5212c}, intrahash = {6b9803ae1a6f0c369d0420c7cf7b3559}, note = {cite arxiv:0905.0976Comment: 8 pages, 9 figures, revtex}, title = {Hypergraph topological quantities for tagged social networks}, url = {http://arxiv.org/abs/0905.0976}, year = 2009 }
