Measuring the mixing time of social graphs
2010
Proceedings of the 10th annual conference on Internet measurement - IMC '10
To address this problem, we measure the mixing time of several social graphs, the time that it takes a random walk on the graph to approach the stationary distribution of that graph, using two techniques ...
Our findings show that the mixing time of social graphs is much larger than anticipated, and being used in literature, and this implies that either the current security systems based on fast mixing have ...

Measuring bias in the mixing time of social graphs due to graph sampling
2012
MILCOM 2012 - 2012 IEEE Military Communications Conference
In this paper we consider the bias of sampling algorithms on the mixing time. ...
We quantitatively show that some existing sampling algorithms, even those which are unbiased to the degree distribution, always produce biased estimation of the mixing time of social graphs. ...

On the mixing time of directed social graphs and security implications
2012
Proceedings of the 7th ACM Symposium on Information, Computer and Communications Security - ASIACCS '12
In this paper we measure the mixing time and behavior of several directed graphs and their undirected counterparts. ...
To relate to the applications suggested in the literature, we measure how directionality of edges in several social graphs impact these applications, and find that evaluation on the undirected graphs always ...

An Analysis of Graph Properties for Detecting Sybil Nodes in Social Networks
2018
Journal of ICT Research and Applications
The results showed that the mixing time does not reflect the difference between honest graphs and Sybil graphs. ...
This research also investigated the mixing time, which is one of the properties that many existing methods use for detecting Sybil attacks. ...
This section will discuss the measurement of mixing time in detail. A social network can be expressed in the form of a graph. ...

Designs to account for trust in social network-based sybil defenses
2010
Proceedings of the 17th ACM conference on Computer and communications security - CCS '10
Social network-based Sybil defenses exploit the trust exhibited in social graphs to detect Sybil nodes that disrupt an algorithmic property (i.e., the fast mixing) in these graphs. ...
While it is natural to think of trust value associated with the social graphs, Sybil defenses have used the social graphs without this consideration. ...

Keep your friends close: Incorporating trust into social network-based Sybil defenses
2011
2011 Proceedings IEEE INFOCOM
Social network-based Sybil defenses exploit the algorithmic properties of social graphs to infer the extent to which an arbitrary node in such a graph should be trusted. ...
However, previous designs for social network-based Sybil defenses have not considered the inherent trust properties of the graphs they use. ...
We first measure the mixing time of the social graphs used in this study (in Table I ) and highlight its variable nature among networks with similar size. ...

2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this paper we demonstrate how using mixed-node publication network graphs can be used in order to get insights into social structures of research groups. ...
Furthermore we suggest applying the approach to a large research cluster as a method of self-management and enriching the graph with sociometric data to improve intelligibility of the graph. ...

Proceedings of the 2016 ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security - CCS'16
Currently, the design of such social security mechanisms is limited to the classical paradigm of using fixed-length random walks for all nodes on a social graph. ...
We utilize a set of supervised machine learning techniques to predict the necessary random walk length based on the structural characteristics of a social graph. ...

International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks
Of independent interest is the measure we propose to evaluate the quality of sampling: the rate of decrease in the area of the largest empty circle remaining. ...
The motivation for this work is that wireless and other physical networks do in fact have embedding of their nodes in space, although analyses of random walks on such networks often only consider the link ...
