Wedding cocktail hour contact webs: Temporal proximity network of a privately hosted social event
收藏资源简介:
该数据集由西北大学研究团队创建,是首个公开的私人社交活动时空邻近网络数据集,旨在填补非结构化面对面互动研究的空白。数据集包含一场婚礼鸡尾酒会上95名参与者佩戴超宽带传感器徽章采集的高分辨率接触数据,共记录7,213个接触事件,覆盖2,760个观测对,时间精度为10秒。数据通过参与者自我报告与新婚夫妇的关系类别进行标注,支持基于社会关系的群体混合分析。该数据集可用于验证机构化环境中的交互模式是否适用于非正式社交场合,并为传染病风险估计、接触者追踪政策及社交空间设计等应用提供建模基础。
This dataset, created by a research team at Northwestern University, is the first publicly available spatio-temporal proximity network dataset for private social gatherings, designed to fill the research gap in studies of unstructured face-to-face interactions. It contains high-resolution contact data collected via ultra-wideband (UWB) sensor badges worn by 95 participants at a wedding cocktail party, recording a total of 7,213 contact events covering 2,760 observed pairs, with a temporal precision of 10 seconds. The data is annotated with relationship categories reported by participants regarding their connections to the newlyweds, supporting group mixing analysis based on social relationships. This dataset can be used to verify whether interaction patterns identified in institutional settings are applicable to informal social occasions, and provides a modeling foundation for applications such as infectious disease risk estimation, contact tracing policies, and social space design.
