Abstract

Behavior of users on online social services is characterized using heavy-tailed distribution. The assumption in heavy-tailed distribution is that few users are responsible for most of the variation. In this paper, users characterized using heavy-tailed distribution are further characterized according to their activity on the online social service. Further, this characterization of behavior is shown to have similar properties as a trigonometric function,
