Social Traps01:41

Social Traps

25.3K
Social traps are negative situations where people get caught in a direction or relationship that later proves to be unpleasant, with no easy way to back out of or avoid. The concept was orignally introduced by John Platt who applied psychology to Garrett Hardin's "Tragedy of the Commons", where in New England herd owners could let their cattle graze in the common ground. This situation seems like a good idea, but an individual could have an advantage. If they owned...

Routes of Persuasion02:20

Routes of Persuasion

67.4K
Persuasion is the process of changing our attitude toward something based on some kind of communication. Much of the persuasion we experience comes from outside forces. How do people convince others to change their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors? What communications do you receive that attempt to persuade you to change your attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors?

Protein Networks02:26

Protein Networks

4.3K
An organism can have thousands of different proteins, and these proteins must cooperate to ensure the health of an organism. Proteins bind to other proteins and form complexes to carry out their functions. Many proteins interact with multiple other proteins creating a complex network of protein interactions.
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...

Understanding Deception01:14

Understanding Deception

73
Deception is a pervasive aspect of human communication. Empirical studies have shown that most individuals engage in some form of deceit on a daily basis, with approximately 20% of social exchanges involving deceptive elements. Lying follows a developmental trajectory, peaking during adolescence and declining with age, possibly due to the maturation of cognitive control and social accountability.Cognitive and Social Factors in Deception DetectionDespite its prevalence, accurately detecting...

Manipulation and Analysis

159
GIS manipulation and analysis functions are vital for decision-making and planning. These activities range from data retrieval tasks, such as selecting information based on specific criteria, to advanced analytical techniques that address complex spatial problems.One critical GIS analysis method is overlaying, which combines multiple data layers to examine impacts. For example, overlaying a river-dammed lake boundary with road networks can identify affected infrastructure. Another common...

Applications of GIS: Disaster Management and Emergency Response

260
Geographic Information System (GIS) technology is essential for risk identification, action prioritization, and resource optimization in critical situations like flooding and earthquakes. By integrating spatial and demographic data, GIS provides a comprehensive framework for emergency response.GIS integrates data layers, like rainfall intensity, topography, elevation profiles, and river levels, to model high-risk flood zones. These layers assess areas susceptible to flooding based on their...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Disinformation can disrupt urban traffic networks by manipulating driver behavior to cause city-wide congestion. Concentrating fake information in a business district causes more widespread disruption than spreading it out.

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Urban Planning
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Disinformation poses a growing societal threat, with critical infrastructure vulnerabilities often overlooked.
  • Urban traffic networks are susceptible to disinformation-based attacks manipulating driver decisions.
  • Such attacks can create large-scale traffic congestion, impacting city functionality.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the impact of disinformation campaigns on urban traffic networks.
  • To investigate the optimization problem for adversaries seeking to maximize traffic disruption.
  • To compare the effectiveness of different targeting strategies for disinformation attacks.

Main Methods:

  • Modeling disinformation attacks on urban traffic networks.
  • Analyzing two scenarios: drivers persuaded towards or away from a location.
  • Proving the computational intractability of finding an optimal attack strategy.
  • Evaluating a suboptimal heuristic for adversary targeting.

Main Results:

  • Optimal disinformation attack strategies are computationally intractable.
  • A heuristic approach is necessary for adversaries.
  • Concentrating attack targets in a business district causes more widespread disruption than spreading them across the city.
  • Disruption can extend up to 2 km from targeted areas.

Conclusions:

  • Urban traffic networks exhibit vulnerabilities to behavioral manipulation via disinformation.
  • Critical infrastructure security must consider psychological and social engineering threats, not just technical ones.
  • Targeted disinformation campaigns can have significant and far-reaching impacts on public infrastructure.
