近年来，社交媒体已成为社交网络中无处不在的组成部分。社会研究人员给出的主要关注之一是志趣相投的人们在社会群体中彼此互动的趋势，这一概念被称为同质。对同质性的研究可以提供对社会内信息和行为流动的重要见解，这在分析在线社区的形成方面非常有用。在本文中，我们回顾和调查同质性在社交网络中的效果，并总结了过去几年提出的艺术方法，以识别和衡量在多种类型的社交网络中同质的效果，我们以对未来研究的公开挑战和方向进行了批判性讨论。
In recent years, social media has become a ubiquitous and integral part of social networking. One of the major attentions made by social researchers is the tendency of like-minded people to interact with one another in social groups, a concept which is known as Homophily. The study of homophily can provide eminent insights into the flow of information and behaviors within a society and this has been extremely useful in analyzing the formations of online communities. In this paper, we review and survey the effect of homophily in social networks and summarize the state of art methods that has been proposed in the past years to identify and measure the effect of homophily in multiple types of social networks and we conclude with a critical discussion of open challenges and directions for future research.
