Research Type Experimental This paper studies common regularities of browsing behaviors in these systems, based on a large data set of user logs. We found that despite differences in visit time and user types, the distribution over browsing length for a visit can be described by the inverse Gaussian form with a very high precision. It indicates that the choice threshold model of decision making on continuing browsing or leave does exist. Also, We found that the stimulus intensity, in terms of the amount of recent enjoyed items, affects the probability of continuing browsing in a curve of inverted-U shape. We discuss the possible origin of this curve based on a proposed Award-Aversion Contest model. This hypothesis is supported by the empirical study, which shows that the proposed model can successfully recover the original inverse Gaussian distribution for the browsing length.

Pseudocode No No pseudocode or algorithm blocks were found in the paper.
Open Source Code No No explicit statement about providing open-source code for the methodology or links to code repositories were found in the paper.
Open Datasets No The paper uses user logs collected from "Wallpapers Plus for i OS 8". It describes the data: "Totally, we have the user logs for the 41 days from Nov. 4 to Dec. 14, 2014. After the data preprocessing, we have 1,545,950 sequences for the whole analysis in the following." However, no concrete access information (link, DOI, repository, or citation for public availability) for this collected dataset is provided.
Dataset Splits No No explicit train/validation/test dataset splits, specific percentages, absolute counts, or cross-validation setup details were found. The paper describes fitting a distribution to the data and testing the quality of fit, but does not provide details on data partitioning for model validation.
Hardware Specification No No specific hardware details (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory, or specific computing environments) used for running the experiments or analysis were found in the paper.
Software Dependencies No No specific ancillary software details with version numbers (e.g., programming languages, libraries, or solvers with their versions) were found. The paper mentions the 'simplex search method', but not the software used for its implementation or other dependencies.
Experiment Setup No No specific experimental setup details, such as concrete hyperparameter values (e.g., learning rates, batch sizes, epochs), optimizer settings, or system-level training configurations, were found in the main text of the paper.
