Quantitative understanding of success and inequality through network science The unprecedented availability of large-scale datasets on human activities and interactions has enabled us to quantitatively understand how networks shape success and drive inequalities in various fields. In this talk, I will highlight the crucial role of network science in comprehending social phenomena, particularly in the […]
Computational, evidence-based approaches to bicycle network planning In this talk, I explore the opportunities and limitations of network and data science for bicycle infrastructure planning. With the increasing popularity of cycling as a mode of transportation, and the necessity to invest into sustainable transport, more accurate and reliable data and computational methods on bicycle […]
Exploring Gender Bias and Collaborative Dynamics in Science: Lessons from natural and controlled experiments
https://talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-2023/talk/RPVTPU/ BikeDNA: A tool for Bicycle Infrastructure Data & Network Assessment 2023-06-28, 16:00–16:30 (Europe/Tirane), UBT C / N110 - Second Floor Access to high-quality data on existing bicycle infrastructure is a requirement for evidence-based bicycle network planning, which can support a green transition of human mobility. However, this requirement is rarely met: Data from governmental […]
Quantifying biases and inequalities in science Every day our life is made easier by efficient measures and algorithms that quantify, search, and rank scientific information. Yet, these measures and algorithms have an issue: they are trained on citations, which are ingrained with human biases. Therefore the output is inherently biased too, creating inequalities, raising concerns […]

Geographic distances influence social connections inside cities - even in our digital age . Both the perception of physical distance and the likelihood of forming social ties across locations are influenced by infrastructural elements, as previous studies […]
