Question about the distribution of benefits in social network #29

Open HaowenShang opened 5 years ago

HaowenShang commented 5 years ago

Thanks for your interesting presentation! The paper shows that groups in dynamic networks far outperform their best-performing member and that even the best member’s judgment substantially benefits from group engagement. I want to know what’s the distribution of performance improvement for each member in the group? Does low-performing individual benefit most and high-performing individual benefit least?

Good question. From Fig5, it seems that the worse performing individual benefits the most from being in a dynamic network.. this an interesting quantity of interest that we did not think of.
