Distribution of Attention in YouTube — •José M. Miotto and Eduardo G. Altmann — Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems, Dresden, Germany

Records of users activity in YouTube allow for a detailed study of the dynamics of attention distribution in social media. In this talk we describe and model the main statistical properties of the number of views of Youtube videos. We focus on the characterization and predictability of extreme events, the small number of videos in the tail of the distribution for views which capture a considerable amount of the total attention.
