| Title | Success Dynamics in an Online Photo Sharing Platform |
| Summary | The thesis explores the relationship between the dynamics of performance and success in the case of an online photo sharing platform. The careers of photographers are studied in terms of peak achievements, as introduced in the field of science of success. A fundamental and robust difference is observed as compared to previous results, multiple hypothesis are formulated towards explaining the phenomenon, initial tests are conducted and directions for further research are pointed out. Aesthetic scores generated through deep learning are used to assess the quality of the individual images. Then matching methods are applied to infer causal relationship between the aesthetic value of a photograph and the probability of positive social feedback received. |
