Physical aging in article page views
Yeseul Kim, Kun Cho, and Byung Mook Weon
TL;DR
This paper investigates how article page views decline over time, revealing that their relaxation behavior resembles physical aging phenomena observed in complex systems.
Contribution
It introduces the analogy between the decay of article page views and physical aging, highlighting nonexponential relaxation patterns in temporal view statistics.
Findings
Page views typically decay after a peak
Decay exhibits nonexponential relaxation behavior
Resembles physical aging in complex systems
Abstract
Statistics of article page views is useful for measuring the impact of individual articles. Analyzing the temporal evolution of article page views, we find that article page views usually decay over time after reaching a peak, especially exhibiting relaxation with nonexponentiality. This finding suggests that relaxation in article page views resembles physical aging as frequently found in complex systems.
