We use ideas inspired by graph theory and probabilistic influence networks to derive efficient heuristics for negotiations about multiple issues. Experimental results show --- under relatively weak assumptions with respect to the structure of the utility functions - that the developed approach leads to Pareto-efficient outcomes. Moreover, Pareto-efficiency can be reached with few negotiation steps, because we explicitly model and utilize the underlying graphical structure of complex utility functions. Consequently, our approach is applicable to domains where reaching an efficient outcome in a limited amount of time is important. Furthermore, unlike other solutions for high-dimensional negotiations, the proposed approach does not require a mediator.}</swrc:abstract><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="2010-07-16 10:17:17" swrc:key="posted-at"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="The Netherlands" swrc:key="location"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="2" swrc:key="priority"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="1-59593-093-0" swrc:key="isbn"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="7498927" swrc:key="citeulike-article-id"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="http://dx.doi.org/10.1145/1082473.1082516" swrc:key="citeulike-linkout-1"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1082473.1082516" swrc:key="citeulike-linkout-0"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="10.1145/1082473.1082516" swrc:key="doi"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:author><rdf:Seq><rdf:_1><swrc:Person swrc:name="Valentin Robu"/></rdf:_1><rdf:_2><swrc:Person swrc:name="D.

We show that final tag frequencies for most resources converge to power law distributions and we propose an empirical method to examine the dynamics of the convergence process, based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence measure. The convergence analysis is performed for both the most utilized tags at the top of tag distributions and the so-called long tail.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Second, we study the information structures that emerge from collaborative tagging, namely tag correlation (or folksonomy) graphs. We show how community-based network techniques can be used to extract simple tag vocabularies from the tag correlation graphs by partitioning them into subsets of related tags. Furthermore, we also show, for a specialized domain, that shared vocabularies produced by collaborative tagging are richer than the vocabularies which can be extracted from large-scale query logs provided by a major search engine.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Although the empirical analysis presented in this article is based on a set of tagging data obtained from del.icio.us, the methods developed are general, and the conclusions should be applicable across other websites that employ tagging.</swrc:abstract><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="1559-1131" swrc:key="issn"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="1594176" swrc:key="acmid"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="4" swrc:key="issue"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="34" swrc:key="numpages"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="14" swrc:key="articleno"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="10.1145/1594173.1594176" swrc:key="doi"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:author><rdf:Seq><rdf:_1><swrc:Person swrc:name="Valentin Robu"/></rdf:_1><rdf:_2><swrc:Person swrc:name="Harry Halpin"/></rdf:_2><rdf:_3><swrc:Person swrc:name="Hana Shepherd"/></rdf:_3></rdf:Seq></swrc:author></rdf:Description></burst:publication><description>Emergence of consensus and shared vocabularies in collaborative tagging systems</description></item><item rdf:about="http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/22fcd83a2e7103a3546219c6f7f078cdb/beate"><title>The complex dynamics of collaborative tagging</title><link>http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/22fcd83a2e7103a3546219c6f7f078cdb/beate</link><dc:creator>beate</dc:creator><dc:date>2011-11-28T07:27:05+01:00</dc:date><dc:subject>folksonomy model tagging </dc:subject><content:encoded>&lt;span class=&#034;authorEditorList&#034;&gt;&lt;a href=&#034;/author/Halpin&#034;&gt;Harry Halpin&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&#034;/author/Robu&#034;&gt;Valentin Robu&lt;/a&gt;,  and &lt;a href=&#034;/author/Shepherd&#034;&gt;Hana Shepherd&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;Proceedings of the 16th international conference on World Wide Web, &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;page 211--220. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;New York, NY, USA, &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;ACM, &lt;/em&gt;(&lt;em&gt;2007&lt;/em&gt;)</content:encoded><taxo:topics><rdf:Bag><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/folksonomy"/><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/model"/><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/tagging"/></rdf:Bag></taxo:topics><burst:publication><rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/22fcd83a2e7103a3546219c6f7f078cdb/beate"><owl:sameAs rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/uri/bibtex/22fcd83a2e7103a3546219c6f7f078cdb/beate"/><rdf:type rdf:resource="http://swrc.ontoware.org/ontology#InProceedings"/><owl:sameAs rdf:resource="http://dx.doi.org/10.1145/1242572.1242602"/><swrc:date>Mon Nov 28 07:27:05 CET 2011</swrc:date><swrc:address>New York, NY, USA</swrc:address><swrc:booktitle>Proceedings of the 16th international conference on World Wide Web</swrc:booktitle><swrc:pages>211--220</swrc:pages><swrc:publisher><swrc:Organization swrc:name="ACM"/></swrc:publisher><swrc:series>WWW &#039;07</swrc:series><swrc:title>The complex dynamics of collaborative tagging</swrc:title><swrc:year>2007</swrc:year><swrc:keywords>folksonomy model tagging </swrc:keywords><swrc:abstract>{The debate within the Web community over the optimal means by which to organize information often pits formalized classifications against distributed collaborative tagging systems.

First, we study the formation of stable distributions in tagging systems, seen as an implicit form of  ” consensus” reached by the users of the system around the tags that best describe a resource. We show that final tag frequencies for most resources converge to power law distributions and we propose an empirical method to examine the dynamics of the convergence process, based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence measure. The convergence analysis is performed for both the most utilized tags at the top of tag distributions and the so-called long tail. Second, we study the information structures that emerge from collaborative tagging, namely tag correlation (or folksonomy) graphs. We show how community-based network techniques can be used to extract simple tag vocabularies from the tag correlation graphs by partitioning them into subsets of related tags. Furthermore, we also show, for a specialized domain, that shared vocabularies produced by collaborative tagging are richer than the vocabularies which can be extracted from large-scale query logs provided by a major search engine. Although the empirical analysis presented in this article is based on a set of tagging data obtained from del.icio.us, the methods developed are general, and the conclusions should be applicable across other websites that employ tagging.}</swrc:abstract><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="1559-1131" swrc:key="issn"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="2011-09-09 20:04:16" swrc:key="posted-at"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="2" swrc:key="priority"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="7242686" swrc:key="citeulike-article-id"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="http://dx.doi.org/10.1145/1594173.1594176" swrc:key="citeulike-linkout-1"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1594173.1594176" swrc:key="citeulike-linkout-0"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="10.1145/1594173.1594176" swrc:key="doi"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:author><rdf:Seq><rdf:_1><swrc:Person swrc:name="Valentin Robu"/></rdf:_1><rdf:_2><swrc:Person swrc:name="Harry Halpin"/></rdf:_2><rdf:_3><swrc:Person swrc:name="Hana Shepherd"/></rdf:_3></rdf:Seq></swrc:author></rdf:Description></burst:publication></item><item rdf:about="http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/22c2c689cb9946670785d0940e9dab324/folke"><title>The complex dynamics of collaborative tagging</title><link>http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/22c2c689cb9946670785d0940e9dab324/folke</link><dc:creator>folke</dc:creator><dc:date>2011-08-26T22:12:37+02:00</dc:date><dc:subject>analysis collaborative dynamics history network power-law </dc:subject><content:encoded>&lt;span class=&#034;authorEditorList&#034;&gt;&lt;a href=&#034;/author/Halpin&#034;&gt;Harry Halpin&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&#034;/author/Robu&#034;&gt;Valentin Robu&lt;/a&gt;,  and &lt;a href=&#034;/author/Shepherd&#034;&gt;Hana Shepherd&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;WWW &amp;#039;07: Proceedings of the 16th international conference on World Wide Web, &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;page 211--220. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;New York, NY, USA, &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;ACM, &lt;/em&gt;(&lt;em&gt;2007&lt;/em&gt;)</content:encoded><taxo:topics><rdf:Bag><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/analysis"/><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/collaborative"/><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/dynamics"/><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/history"/><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/network"/><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/power-law"/></rdf:Bag></taxo:topics><burst:publication><rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/22c2c689cb9946670785d0940e9dab324/folke"><owl:sameAs rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/uri/bibtex/22c2c689cb9946670785d0940e9dab324/folke"/><rdf:type rdf:resource="http://swrc.ontoware.org/ontology#InProceedings"/><owl:sameAs rdf:resource="http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1242602"/><swrc:date>Fri Aug 26 22:12:37 CEST 2011</swrc:date><swrc:address>New York, NY, USA</swrc:address><swrc:booktitle>WWW &#039;07: Proceedings of the 16th international conference on World Wide Web</swrc:booktitle><swrc:pages>211--220</swrc:pages><swrc:publisher><swrc:Organization swrc:name="ACM"/></swrc:publisher><swrc:title>The complex dynamics of collaborative tagging</swrc:title><swrc:year>2007</swrc:year><swrc:keywords>analysis collaborative dynamics history network power-law </swrc:keywords><swrc:abstract>The debate within the Web community over the optimal means by which to organize information often pits formalized classifications against distributed collaborative tagging systems.

A number of questions remain unanswered, however, regarding the nature of collaborative tagging systems including the dynamics of such systems and whether coherent classification schemes can emerge from undirected tagging by users. Currently millions of users are using collaborative tagging without centrally organizing principles, and many suspect this exhibits features considered to be indicative of a complex system. If this is the case, it remains to be seem whether collaborative tagging by users over time leads to emergent classi- fication schemes that could be formalized into an ontology usable by the Semantic Web. This paper uses data from �popular� tagged sites on the social bookmarking site del.icio.us to examine the dynamics of such collaborative tagging systems. In particular, we are trying to determine whether the distribution of tag frequencies stabilizes, which indicates a degree of cohesion or consensus among users about the optimal tags to describe particular sites. We use tag co-occurrence networks for a sample domain of tags to analyze the meaning of particular tags given their relationship to other tags and automatically create an ontology. We also produce a generative model of collaborative tagging in order to model and understand some of the basic dynamics behind the process.</swrc:abstract><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="2007-05-25 16:05:53" swrc:key="timestamp"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="dbenz" swrc:key="username"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="2007-01-04" swrc:key="lastdatemodified"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="halpin2006dynamics.pdf:halpin2006dynamics.pdf:PDF" swrc:key="file"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="halpin06-dynamics.pdf" swrc:key="pdf"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="notread" swrc:key="read"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="Halpin" swrc:key="lastname"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="notown" swrc:key="own"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="public" swrc:key="groups"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:author><rdf:Seq><rdf:_1><swrc:Person swrc:name="Harry Halpin"/></rdf:_1><rdf:_2><swrc:Person swrc:name="Valentin Robu"/></rdf:_2><rdf:_3><swrc:Person swrc:name="Hana Shepard"/></rdf:_3></rdf:Seq></swrc:author></rdf:Description></burst:publication></item><item rdf:about="http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/271cf71bd43f64d17fb284177219c1b32/dblp"><title>Simultaneous H∞ vibration control of fluid/plate system via reduced-order controller.</title><link>http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/271cf71bd43f64d17fb284177219c1b32/dblp</link><dc:creator>dblp</dc:creator><dc:date>2011-02-23T00:00:00+01:00</dc:date><dc:subject>dblp </dc:subject><content:encoded>&lt;span class=&#034;authorEditorList&#034;&gt;&lt;a href=&#034;/author/Robu&#034;&gt;Bogdan Robu&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&#034;/author/Budinger&#034;&gt;Valerie Budinger&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&#034;/author/Baudouin&#034;&gt;Lucie Baudouin&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&#034;/author/Prieur&#034;&gt;Christophe Prieur&lt;/a&gt;,  and &lt;a href=&#034;/author/Arzelier&#034;&gt;Denis Arzelier&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;CDC, &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;page 3146-3151. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;IEEE, &lt;/em&gt;(&lt;em&gt;2010&lt;/em&gt;)</content:encoded><taxo:topics><rdf:Bag><rdf:li rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/tag/dblp"/></rdf:Bag></taxo:topics><burst:publication><rdf:Description rdf:about="http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/271cf71bd43f64d17fb284177219c1b32/dblp"><owl:sameAs rdf:resource="http://www.bibsonomy.org/uri/bibtex/271cf71bd43f64d17fb284177219c1b32/dblp"/><rdf:type rdf:resource="http://swrc.ontoware.org/ontology#InProceedings"/><owl:sameAs rdf:resource="http://dblp.uni-trier.de/db/conf/cdc/cdc2010.html#RobuBBPA10"/><swrc:date>Wed Feb 23 00:00:00 CET 2011</swrc:date><swrc:booktitle>CDC</swrc:booktitle><swrc:crossref>conf/cdc/2010</swrc:crossref><swrc:pages>3146-3151</swrc:pages><swrc:publisher><swrc:Organization swrc:name="IEEE"/></swrc:publisher><swrc:title>Simultaneous H∞ vibration control of fluid/plate system via reduced-order controller.</swrc:title><swrc:year>2010</swrc:year><swrc:keywords>dblp </swrc:keywords><swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:Field swrc:value="http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/CDC.2010.5718057" swrc:key="ee"/></swrc:hasExtraField><swrc:author><rdf:Seq><rdf:_1><swrc:Person swrc:name="Bogdan Robu"/></rdf:_1><rdf:_2><swrc:Person swrc:name="Valerie Budinger"/></rdf:_2><rdf:_3><swrc:Person swrc:name="Lucie Baudouin"/></rdf:_3><rdf:_4><swrc:Person swrc:name="Christophe Prieur"/></rdf:_4><rdf:_5><swrc:Person swrc:name="Denis Arzelier"/></rdf:_5></rdf:Seq></swrc:author></rdf:Description></burst:publication></item></rdf:RDF>
