From eyeballs to click through: the role of the user/consumer as actor in the television value network as TV makes the transition to a digital, connected era Vrije Universiteit Brussel
This chapter aims to highlight some of the central concepts and theories used to describe the changing role of users/consumers as actors in the television value chain, as TV makes the transition to a digital, connected era. The present study is part of a longer-term PhD project that examines the changing role of the audience in the television value network, as television enters the digital and connected era in Flanders. Particular consideration ...
An Explorative Mapping of the Belgian Social Media Marketing Value Network and Its Usage of Personal Identifiable Information Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Research has shown an increase in both disclosure of personal data and means to gather this data on social media such as Facebook. Little research has been done to analyze what happens with this data and how it circulates between different actors. The aim of this research is to map a subset of the Belgian social media marketing companies are as a value network and how these actors use social media users' data for marketing campaigns. The answer ...
Dynamic computation of value signals via a common neural network in multi-attribute decision-making Ghent University
Estimation of Value of Time for a Congested Network – A case study of the National Highway, Karachi Hasselt University
Traffic congestion in mega cities is a common phenomenon for developing countries. Numerous studies on congestion cost estimation, that aim to quantify their monetary losses, have been conducted. Value of Time (VOT) assessment through utility maximizing theory and choice models are abundantly applied in transport literature. However, estimating VOT on congested network is not widely applied yet. To recognize the difference under normal and ...
Ethnic diversity and value sharing: A longitudinal network perspective on interactive group processes KU Leuven
People often collaborate in groups that are increasingly diverse. As research predominantly investigated effects of diversity, the processes behind these effects remain understudied. We follow recent research that shows creating shared values is important for group functioning but seems hindered in high diversity groups - and use longitudinal social network analyses to study two interpersonal processes behind value sharing: creating relations ...
Housing in the circular economy, lessons from value network mapping as a transition experimentation tool Vrije Universiteit Brussel
In Belgium, about 70% of all households own the house they call their home. Private ownership is strongly encouraged by governments, although the price of houses and apartments has more than doubled since 2000. As a result, the affordability of housing becomes a challenge for increasingly more families. 13% of those who enter a loan, pay more than 40% of its income to a mortgage, and the past year 8% had difficulties paying fixed or additional ...
Value network mapping applied to the flat glass sector Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Architectural flat glass is a fully recyclable material but continues to follow a linear, wasteful path from renovation and demolition sites into landfills or low-value recycling. To make the shift towards circularity, understanding the whole flat glass network is essential. Therefore, the present paper identifies constraints and leverage points for circularity from a systemic perspective. Departing from literature and in-person discussions with ...
Successful Collaborations in Transition Experiments: 14 guidelines from a value network perspective Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The transition to a circular construction economy, which has been receiving more and more attention in Flanders and Brussels like in many other regions, requires new collaborations in transition experiments. Since such experiments are demanding, facilitating more effectively the formation of partnerships and support collaborations in initiatives such as transition arenas and living labs is of interest for everyone who wants to establish systemic ...
The Value of Big Data for Credit Scoring: Enhancing Financial Inclusion using Mobile Phone Data and Social Network Analytics KU Leuven
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Credit scoring is without a doubt one of the oldest applications of analytics. In recent years, a multitude of sophisticated classification techniques have been developed to improve the statistical performance of credit scoring models. Instead of focusing on the techniques themselves, this paper leverages alternative data sources to enhance both statistical and economic model performance. The study demonstrates how including ...
