Abstract: Recent years have seen an explosive growth in the use of mobile apps on smartphones and tablets. With over 2.7 billion smartphone users across the world checking their phones over 80 times a day, smartphone data offer a unique opportunity to understand main aspects of human behaviors, e.g., mobility, sleep patterns, and mobile app […]
Abstract: The analysis of complex online information requires the availability of rich data representation models and data analysis algorithms, for example multilayer networks and multilayer network clustering methods. At the same time, data analysis processes often require the ability to store raw data not yet prepared to perform a specific type of analysis, the possibility […]

Maksim Kitsak (Delft University of Technology) Geometric Representations of Complementarity-Driven Networks Abstract: Complementarity-driven networks are routinely embedded into latent metric spaces with the purpose of data analysis. We argue that these traditional geometric representations, where connected nodes are embedded close to each other in the latent space, are not applicable to complementarity-driven networks due […]
