摘要: The dynamics of many social, technological and economic phenomena are driven by individual human actions, turning the quantitative understanding of human behaviour into a central question of modern science. Current models of human dynamics, used from risk assessment to communications, assume that human actions are randomly distributed in time and thus well approximated by Poisson processes,,. In contrast, there is increasing evidence that the timing of many human activities, ranging from communication to entertainment and …
