Abstract:
Success of groups in Meetup is of utmost importance for members who organize them. However, measures of group success in Meetup is quite vague till now. In this paper, we take a step to quantify the success of Meetup groups. Driven by a comprehensive study of our Meetup dataset, we handpick a set of key properties which can potentially regulate a group’s success. Finally, we develop a machine learning model leveraging on these features which can predict success of Meetup groups early with high accuracy.

Abstract:
Thousands of technology professionals attend in-person meetups each month in cities around the world. However, during the Covid-19 pandemic, social distancing requirements have forced meetups in many locations to operate exclusively virtual events for the first time. We surveyed participants (n=251) who attend technology meetup communities in the UK to find out how the pivot from in-person to virtual meetings has affected meetup communities. We gathered data about participants' experiences of virtual meetups and compared with in-person experiences. While in-person meetups are important venues for practitioners to network, learn, socialise, meet people and participate in discussions (enabling transfer of tacit knowledge), participants attend virtual meetings primarily for learning. Virtual meetups offer poor support for socialising, networking, discussion and transfer of tacit knowledge, However, they do offer learning opportunities via structured talks and content, and can rival in-person meetups when it comes to learning new skills like programming, keeping up to date with general technology developments and improving one's general practice. The low barrier to entry for virtual events improves accessibility for both speakers and participants. Our findings suggest that some meetups may benefit from considering how to incorporate virtual meeting formats into their schedules for the long-term.

Abstract:
AbstractMotivated by location-based social networks which allow people to access location-based services as a group, we study a novel variant of optimal sequenced route (OSR) queries, optimal sequenced route for group meetup (OSR-G) queries. OSR-G query aims to find the optimal meeting POI (point of interest) such that the maximum users’ route distance to the meeting POI is minimized after each user visits a number of POIs of specific categories (e.g., gas stations, restaurants, and shopping malls) in a particular order. To process OSR-G queries, we first propose an OSR-Based (OSRB) algorithm as our baseline, which examines every POI in the meeting category and utilizes existing OSR (called E-OSR) algorithm to compute the optimal route for each user to the meeting POI. To address the shortcomings (i.e., requiring to examine every POI in the meeting category) of OSRB, we propose an upper bound based filtering algorithm, called circle filtering (CF) algorithm, which exploits the circle property to filter the unpromising meeting POIs. In addition, we propose a lower bound based pruning (LBP) algorithm, namely LBP-SP which exploits a shortest path lower bound to prune the unqualified meeting POIs to reduce the search space. Furthermore, we develop an approximate algorithm, namely APS, to accelerate OSR-G queries with a good approximation ratio. Finally the experimental results show that both CF and LBP-SP outperform the OSRB algorithm and have high pruning rates. Moreover, the proposed approximate algorithm runs faster than the exact OSR-G algorithms and has a good approximation ratio.

Abstract:
Many people enjoy theme park and other leisure experiences with their families; however, today a great number of single, geographically mobile individuals desire to partake in such experiences. ‘Meetup’ is the world’s largest social network of local groups and thus allows for both online and off-line (in person) interactions. Using an ethnographic approach, this study examines how individuals can enjoy activities centered on common activities, interests, and opinions (AIO) via immersion in a Meetup group over the course of a year. Notably, members visited with greater frequency, had less tolerance for long lines, and were more likely to attend special events, eat at specialty restaurants, and consume alcohol. Group members also exchanged travel advice and both contributed and detracted from the enjoyment of the theme park experience. Membership in this Meetup group increased the frequency of visits and deeper exploration of the theme park resort, thus improving behavioral loyalty among annual pass holders. Managers can learn from these online communities to foster interactions among their guests and better target this new market.

Abstract:
Groups in online social networks witness continuous evolution by loss of existing members and gain of new members. In this paper, we present a study of group split in Meetup, where a major fraction of members leave the existing group together and join a newly formed group. We identify pivotal group members, called splitters, playing key roles in group split by influencing the existing members to leave the group. We provide an in-depth analysis of the empirical data to reveal key motivating factors leading to a group split and its subsequent impact. Finally, we develop a prediction model for early detection of splitters, as well as the group members likely to be influenced by the splitter to leave the group.

Abstract:
This article explores engineers’ diverse ways of using the explosive growth in social networks that has taken place during the past 5 years. Engineers Looking for Stuff (ELFS) is a group for engineers available on both the LinkedIn and Facebook social networking sites. Engineers are turning to sites like Facebook, LinkedIn, Meetup, Twitter, and a growing number of more specifically tailored sites to find jobs, get questions answered, and connect with people who share professional interests. The L.A. Robotics Club takes advantage of Meetup, which is intended to bring like-minded people together for live events. The club is home for anyone interested in robotics. Members work together on robotic cars and drones and on their own products. Inventor Matt Ferguson and his colleagues used Twitter to help market the Ankle Foot Maximizer (AFX), a device which strengthens foot and ankle tendons and muscles. The AFX is used in sports medicine and physical rehabilitation and in athletic training to enhance jumping and running.

Abstract:
Event-based social networking platforms such as Meetup have recently witnessed a huge growth. However, with the rise in the volume of groups and events, making individual events attractive has become increasingly challenging for its organizers. As a result, we find that events hosted by groups of same category at similar venues and similar times, also widely differ in their popularity. Data study reveals that the topics specified in textual descriptions of events may be key to their popularity. In this paper, we introduce a novel concept of topical micro-categories in the context of EBSNs for accurately characterizing events, such that events belonging to the same micro-category exhibit similar popularity profile. We develop a principled method to detect such micro-categories from the textual descriptions of individual events. Our experiments reveal the significance of the detected micro-categories in determining the popularity of associated Meetup events and groups. We also investigate the effectiveness of the micro-categories in a real-world application scenario by developing a recommendation model; this model recommends relevant micro-categories to a group for hosting its future events with enhanced popularity. Notably, our model achieves an average NDCG score of around 0.75 showing a straight 5% improvement over the best performing competing method.

Abstract:
Abstract Social groups are fundamental elements of any social system. Their emergence and evolution are closely related to the structure and dynamics of a social system. Research on social groups was primarily focused on the growth and the structure of the interaction networks of social system members and how members’ group affiliation influences the evolution of these networks. The distribution of groups’ size and how members join groups has not been investigated in detail. Here we combine statistical physics and complex network theory tools to analyze the distribution of group sizes in three data sets, Meetup groups based in London and New York and Reddit. We show that all three distributions exhibit log-normal behavior that indicates universal growth patterns in these systems. We propose a theoretical model that combines social and random diffusion of members between groups to simulate the roles of social interactions and members’ interest in the growth of social groups. The simulation results show that our model reproduces growth patterns observed in empirical data. Moreover, our analysis shows that social interactions are more critical for the diffusion of members in online groups, such as Reddit, than in offline groups, such as Meetup. This work shows that social groups follow universal growth mechanisms that need to be considered in modeling the evolution of social systems.

Abstract:
Recently, event-based social networks(EBSN) such as Meetup, Plancast, and Douban have become popular. As users in the networks usually take groups as an unit to participate in events, it is necessary and meaningful to study effective strategies for recommending events to groups. Existing research on group event recommendation either has the problems of data sparse and cold start due to without considering of social relationships in the networks or makes the assumption that the influence weights between any pair of nodes in the user social graph are equal. In this paper, inspired by the graph neural network and attention mechanism, we propose a novel recommendation model named leveraging social relationship-based graph attention model (SRGAM) for group event recommendation. Specifically, we not only construct a user-event interaction graph and an event-user interaction graph, but also build a user-user social graph and an event-event social graph, to alleviate the problems of data sparse and cold start. In addition, by using a graph attention neural network to learn graph data, we can calculate the influence weight of each node in the graph, thereby generating more reasonable user latent vectors and event latent vectors. Furthermore, we use an attention mechanism to fuse multiple user vectors in a group, so as to generate a high-level group latent vector for rating prediction. Extensive experiments on real-world Meetup datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model.

Abstract:
The subject of this research is the points of intersection of space-time relations of the “foreign world” in such form of authorial self-expression as correspondence of the English romanticists. The goal is to examine the key elements of the chronotope of “foreign world”, and determine the peculiarities of their functionality in the romantic epistolary prose. The object of this research is the 50 letters of W. Wordsworth, 224 letters of G. G. Byron, 67 letters of P. B. Shelley, 51 letters of J. Keats, and 200 letters of R. Southey. The article employs a set of general scientific and special literary criticism methods, such as descriptive, biographical, historical-genetic, historical-functional, structural-semantic, and comparative-typological. It is established that the “foreign world” in the correspondence of English romanticists is represented by the following points of intersection of space-time planes: chronotope of the road / road meetup / traffic accident; contact / meetup / date; cities / countries / villages, with the dominant motifs of the road and contact. Leaning on the analysis of space-time plane of the “foreign world” in the correspondence of English romanticists, the conclusion is made that the chronotope of “foreign world” is a certain access code to the world pattern of English romanticists, the key category that resembles the worldview of a particular epoch, namely romanticism. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that this work is first to analyze space-time relations of “foreign world” in the correspondence of English romanticists. The future research should focus on the types and peculiarities of functionality of the chronotope of “native world” in the correspondence of English romanticists, as well as the interaction of space and time in the correspondence of English realist writers, determining and comparing the integral and variable traits characteristic to epistolary prose as a whole.

Abstract:
Transgender community are the most vulnerable and stigmatized groups in any society. Due to their gender identity, they are rejected by their families and communities and are often socially marginalized. The COVID-19 pandemic has diminished transgender individuals’ access to the critical emotional and instrumental social support networks that are vital to their well-being. Exclusion of transgender people made their day to day life more challenging. Consequently, many rely on Government, peer networks and voluntary organizations for social support (e.g., Government supported centres, Community LGBTQ centers, Meetup groups). The framework of the present paper will be focusing on the social exclusion of transgender community during this pandemic times and to deliberate the inclusive measures to face the pandemic situations.

Abstract:
Online social networking services allow people to initialize various kinds of offline social events (e.g., cocktail parties, group buying, and study groups), and invite friends or strangers to participate the events in either manual or collaborative manners. However, such invitation manners are tediously long, and irrelevant, uninterested and even spammers can unexpectedly be added into the event. In this paper, we aim at investigating the characteristics of social events participants for a specific organizer. Specifically, we are wondering how social network, user profiles and geo-locations affect user participation when the social event is held by a single organizer. An extensive analysis has been conducted on the real-world event-based social network Meetup dataset. The results of data analysis also demonstrate that these factors actually influence users' event participation.

Abstract:
Social media has provided a huge amount of user-generated data in capturing urban dynamics. Among them, place-level human behavior has been largely detected through people’s check-in records at certain places. Conventionally, places are characterized by a set of pre-defined features, often specified by the owner of the places. In this paper, we argue that capturing socially-meaningful features and dynamics of an urban place may also be done by analyzing human activity traces. We explore the activity-centered representation of urban places as a foundation for understanding local neighborhoods at scale. We analyze activities from several venues using data from MeetUp, a popular local event organizing service. Then, Yelp’s business information was used to triangulate the analysis. The results suggest that strategies based on local event data have great potential for modeling socially-meaningful urban places at scale.

The article describes the political evolution of the Italian Five Star Movement (Movimento 5 Stelle - M5S) at the local level (2009-2012) with a specific reference to the «Italian Stalingrad» i.e. the city of Parma. In the administrative elections held in 2012 the M5S was able to get its first Major, Federico Pizzarotti, who was unexpectedly elected in the second round defeating the center left coalition. Born as a local and civic experience in the so called Meetup (local party meetings), the M5S of Parma is an example of «overpromising populism» (Mény & Surel 2000) accused by Beppe Grillo (the central office) of a compromise-collusion made by Pizzarotti with the «old» power (traditional parties). Firstly, a short overview of the local evolution of M5S is given in order to better understand its level of local penetration and representation between 2009-2014. Secondly, the analysis of the 2012-2017 electoral campaigns will be described taken into consideration the political characteristics of all the competitors and the main determinants of Pizzarotti's two electoral success. Thirdly, some hypothesesabout the future of the «Effetto Parma» civic party and Pizzarotti's leadership at the local and national level will be provided.

Abstract:
The electrical energy requirement is increasing day by day as many of the mechanical systems like motor vehicles and industrial engines are compensated with electrical equipment due to its environment friendly nature. However, most of the design of electrical power generation units do not seem to be eco-friendly as that of the electrical motors and drives. Therefore, the concentration has moved towards the non-renewable energy generation possibilities. Power stations that are operated by wind, solar and hydro stations attract the developers due to their minimum maintenance cost and higher operational efficiency. Hence, the combinations of two or three renewable energy sources are clubbed in many places to form a Distributed Generation (DG) setup. Such DG system requires an efficient switching operation for managing the power outcome from different generating stations to meet the load requirement. To meetup such requirement, a combination of Genetic Algorithm (GA) with the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based technique has been developed in this work. A simulated experiment is also conducted in the work to prove the efficiency of the proposed hybrid model over the traditional GA and PSO approaches.

Abstract:
User experience (UX) professionals' attempts to address social values as a part of their work practice can overlap with tactics to contest, resist, or change the companies they work for. This paper studies tactics that take place in this overlap, where UX professionals try to re-shape the values embodied and promoted by their companies, in addition to the values embodied and promoted in the technical systems and products that their companies produce. Through interviews with UX professionals working at large U.S.-based technology companies and observations at UX meetup events, this paper identifies tactics used towards three goals: (1) creating space for UX expertise to address values; (2) making values visible and relevant to other organizational stakeholders; and (3) changing organizational processes and orientations towards values. This paper analyzes these as tactics of resistance: UX professionals seek to subvert or change existing practices and organizational structures towards more values-conscious ends. Yet, these tactics of resistance often rely on the dominant discourses and logics of the technology industry. The paper characterizes these as partial or "soft" tactics, but also argues that they nevertheless hold possibilities for enacting values-oriented changes.

Abstract:
In improving the quality of school education and learning in the future, it is necessary to change the mindset that will be used as the basis for implementing a learning program. What's more in the co-19 pandemic period that requires students to be able to study at home without interacting in class for a while. In the past the learning process was conventional, namely face-to-face in class. But even then, most teaching processes are still dominated by teachers. As a result, teaching and learning activities place more emphasis on teaching and not on learning. Learning activities favor the interests of those who teach. Efforts for learning to be focused on students, it is necessary to apply a cooperative learning model which is a form of change in mindset in learning activities at school. However, during this pandemic, the next challenge is how the cooperative process can take place in the online learning process. The absence of a physical meetup becomes an obstacle that can be minimized by the adaptation of the teacher in the distance learning process. In this case the teacher no longer dominates the learning activities, but rather becomes the facilitator and mediator of the process. The cooperative learning model is designed by giving opportunities to students together to build their own knowledge.

Abstract:
In recent years, Event-based social network (EBSN) applications, such as Meetup and DoubanEvent, have received popularity and rapid growth. They provide convenient online platforms for users to create, publish, and organize social events, which will be held in physical places. Additionally, they not only support typical online social networking facilities (e.g., sharing comments and photos), but also promote face-to-face offline social interactions. To provide better service for users, Context-Aware Recommender Systems (CARS) in EBSNs have recently been singled out as a fascinating area of research. CARS in EBSNs provide the suitable recommendation to target users by incorporating the contextual factors into the recommendation process. This paper provides an overview on the development of CARS in EBSNs. We begin by illustrating the concept of the term context and the paradigms of conventional context-aware recommendation process. Subsequently, we introduce the formal definition of an EBSN, the characteristics of EBSNs, the challenges that are faced by CARS in EBSNs, and the implementation process of CARS in EBSNs. We also investigate which contextual factors are considered and how they are represented in the recommendation process. Next, we focus on the state-of-the-art computational techniques regarding CARS in EBSNs. We also overview the datasets and evaluation metrics for evaluation in this research area, and discuss the applications of context-aware recommendation in EBSNs. Finally, we point out research opportunities for the research community.

Abstract:
Purpose Adopting a socio-spatial approach, this study develops a consumer-centric conception of service experience customization. In contrast to existing service customization research, which has focused on company-centric approaches, the purpose of this paper is to examine the practices through which consumers use, abuse, subvert, transform, or complement organizational resources to construct their consumption experiences. Design/methodology/approach The empirical context for this study is a Meetup group: a consumer network organized around members’ shared interests and activities in theme parks. The research utilized participant observation of members’ face-to-face activities during two years and over 80 events, interviews with key informants, and content analysis of online interactions. Findings The findings outline how consumers interact across physical and virtual spaces utilizing technologies and material objects. The data are used to propose a new consumer-centric conceptualization of experience customization, distinguishing between three modes: collaborative co-production, cooperative co-creation, and subversive co-creation. Originality/value It is argued that the three modes of customization provide a way to understand how consumers mobilize and (re)deploy organizational resources to create experiences that may complement existing service propositions, but may also transform them in ways that challenge the service provider’s original goals and expectations. Furthermore, this study identifies the factors that shape which modes of customization are possible and how they are enacted. Specifically, the discussion examines how experiential complexity, governability, the compatibility of consumer and organizational practices, and the collective mobilization of resources may determine the scope and form of customization.

Abstract:
Online bipartite matching and allocation models are widely used to analyze and design markets such as Internet advertising, online labor, and crowdsourcing. Traditionally, vertices on one side of the market are fixed and known a priori, while vertices on the other side arrive online and are matched by a central agent to the offline side. The issue of possible conflicts among offline agents emerges in various real scenarios when we need to match each online agent with a set of offline agents.For example, in event-based social networks (e.g., Meetup), offline events conflict for some users since they will be unable to attend mutually-distant events at proximate times; in advertising markets, two competing firms may prefer not to be shown to one user simultaneously; and in online recommendation systems (e.g., Amazon Books), books of the same type “conflict” with each other in some sense due to the diversity requirement for each online buyer.The conflict nature inherent among certain offline agents raises significant challenges in both modeling and online algorithm design. In this paper, we propose a unifying model, generalizing the conflict models proposed in (She et al., TKDE 2016) and (Chen et al., TKDE 16). Our model can capture not only a broad class of conflict constraints on the offline side (which is even allowed to be sensitive to each online agent), but also allows a general arrival pattern for the online side (which is allowed to change over the online phase). We propose an efficient linear programming (LP) based online algorithm and prove theoretically that it has nearly-optimal online performance. Additionally, we propose two LP-based heuristics and test them against two natural baselines on both real and synthetic datasets. Our LP-based heuristics experimentally dominate the baseline algorithms, aligning with our theoretical predictions and supporting our unified approach.

Abstract:
Abstract. The International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing Student Consortium (ISPRS SC) is an international organization that represents a constituency of the students and the young professionals with common interests and goals within ISPRS in the areas of photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information science. The ISPRS SC Board of Directors strengthened the organization’s foundations and increased its engagement in the Society from 2016 to 2022. Given the current global health crisis, selected members of the Board of Directors continued to serve in the ISPRS SC for a two-year extension and developed creative strategies in navigating the new normal. Building on the strengths of the organization and motivated by the incredible ideas of connecting and engaging the scientific community that emerged during the pandemic, we were able to transform challenges into opportunities through collaborations and sustained participation of our members. In this paper, we summarize all the activities of the Consortium from 2016 to 2022 and provide insights on the impacts and values of these initiatives to the organization and its members. We also elaborated on hosting the GeoMixers as virtual networking events with our partner organizations as well as organizing the virtual Google Earth Engine meetup in the Singapore Geospatial Festival, which was given the short title, EarthEngine@SG. Outcomes of the Leadership and Service Mentoring Programme, the Consortium’s first mentorship and training programme for potential nominees for the incoming Board of Directors, demonstrated the remarkable potential of the youth in leading and engaging in relevant social and global issues and contributing to the scientific community. Sustaining our relevance to ISPRS, experiencing growth during the pandemic and understanding our roles as an international organization, the Consortium will continue to forge ahead and adapt to change to support the youth and contribute to building resilience and adaptability in our scientific community.

Abstract:
Rilke se topó con Spinoza supuestamente a través de Goethe. El poeta se sorprende de los puntos de coincidencia que comparte con el filósofo. Buscar las razones de esta fascinación implica el riesgo de asimilar dos autores muy diferentes: Spinoza buscando la transparencia de la geometría para diseccionar los afectos humanos, Rilke amando la oscuridad como única fuente de novedad. Sin embargo, en su idea de Dios, no parecen estar tan alejados, tal y como intenta mostrar este artículo.
