"The Science Behind Viral Trends"

Viral trends spread through social networks by leveraging their unique structure and dynamics. Influencers, or highly connected individuals, act as hubs that amplify a trend's reach. The small-world effect, where a few long-range connections link otherwise distant parts of a network, allows ideas to spread globally and rapidly. Clustering, or the presence of tightly connected groups within the network, helps reinforce and sustain the trend. The process typically begins by seeding the trend with a small, targeted group, leading to exponential growth as it reaches critical mass and becomes self-sustaining. These principles are applied in marketing campaigns, epidemiology, and content creation to optimize the spread of ideas or products. Examples like viral hashtags, memes such as the Ice Bucket Challenge, or successful product launches highlight how network science underpins the science of virality, showing that trends don’t go viral by chance but follow predictable patterns.


Viral trends spread through social networks by leveraging their structure and dynamics. Key factors like influencers, clustering, and the small-world effect play crucial roles in determining how ideas, memes, or products become widespread. Here's a breakdown:
  • Influencers (Hubs): Highly connected individuals amplify the trend by reaching larger audiences.
  • Small-World Effect: A few long-range connections allow trends to spread quickly across distant groups.
  • Clustering: Close-knit groups help reinforce and sustain the trend, making it stickier.
How It Works
  • Seed the Trend: Start with a targeted group.
  • Exponential Growth: The idea spreads as it reaches more hubs.
  • Critical Mass: Once enough people adopt it, the trend becomes self-sustaining.
Real-World Examples
  • Viral hashtags like #IceBucketChallenge.
  • Product launches (e.g., iPhone).
  • Memes and online challenges.

Global Lighthouse Network

Smart, sustainable manufacturing: 3 lessons from the Global Lighthouse Network Launched in 2018, when more than 70% of factories struggled to scale digital transformation beyond isolated pilots, the Global Lighthouse Network set out to identify the world’s most advanced production sites and create a shared learning journey to up-level the global manufacturing community. In the past seven years, the network has grown from 16 to 201 industrial sites in more than 30 countries and 35 sectors, including the latest cohort of 13 new sites. This growing community of organizations is setting new standards for operational excellence, leveraging advanced technologies to drive growth, productivity, resilience and environmental sustainability. But what exactly is a Global Lighthouse and what has the network achieved? What is the Global Lighthouse Network? The Global Lighthouse Network is a community of operational facilities and value chains that harness digital technologies at scale to ac...

Multi-Modal Data

Multi-Task Federated Split Learning Across Multi-Modal Data with Privacy Preservation With the advancement of federated learning (FL), there is a growing demand for schemes that support multi-task learning on multi-modal data while ensuring robust privacy protection, especially in applications like intelligent connected vehicles. Traditional FL schemes often struggle with the complexities introduced by multi-modal data and diverse task requirements, such as increased communication overhead and computational burdens. In this paper, we propose a novel privacy-preserving scheme for multi-task federated split learning across multi-modal data (MTFSLaMM). Our approach leverages the principles of split learning to partition models between clients and servers, employing a modular design that reduces computational demands on resource-constrained clients. To ensure data privacy, we integrate differential privacy to protect intermediate data and employ homomorphic encryption to safeguard client m...

Calibration of force sensor

Calibration of force sensor mounted in tire tread block under rolling contact condition This study investigates a  sensor calibration  method for accurately measuring the three-axis contact forces of a single tread block using sensor-equipped tires. Two calibration methods were examined: a static method based on forces generated by applying three-axis displacements, and a dynamic method using rolling contact. Significant errors were observed in the static method when road surface sensors were used as reference values during tire rotation. In contrast, the dynamic method showed minimal speed dependency but was influenced by the  slip angle  and inflation pressure.  It was confirmed that the accurate reproduction of three-axis contact forces from tire sensors is possible if calibration coefficients corresponding to the slip angle and inflation pressure are available. Several methods have been proposed previously to measure the contact force of the entire tire by a...
