Length scales in Brownian yet non-Gaussian dynamics
J. M. Miotto, S. Pigolotti, A. V. Chechkin +1
According to the classical theory of Brownian motion, the mean squared displacement of diffusing particles evolves linearly with time whereas the distribution of their displacement…
Stochastic dynamics and the predictability of big hits in online videos
Jose M. Miotto, Holger Kantz, Eduardo G. Altmann
The competition for the attention of users is a central element of the Internet. Crucial issues are the origin and predictability of big hits, the few items that capture a big port…
Is this scaling nonlinear?
J. C. Leitao, J. M. Miotto, M. Gerlach +1

Extracting information from S-curves of language change
Fakhteh Ghanbarnejad, Martin Gerlach, Jose M. Miotto +1
It is well accepted that adoption of innovations are described by S-curves (slow start, accelerating period, and slow end). In this paper, we analyze how much information on the dy…
