NETfrix - Network Science Podcast

What's the rumpus, I'm Asaf Shapira and this is NETfrix.In this podcast we will talk about the magical field of Network Science, Graph Theory, Social Network Analysis or SNA and everything in between and that's a lot…Transcripts are available on SNAp...

Milgram, the famous researcher from the 60's, set out to find how small is our world and came back with the 6-degrees-of-separation slogan, meaning the human society's network is seemingly just 6 links in diameter. Why seemingly? Because we are going...

What do Facebook, Bitcoin and an ad campaign for designer glasses have in common? They all conform to Network Science laws. These laws are universal and are manifested in a n y network.Understanding these laws would change your perception of the worl...

In this episode we'll learn how to tell a story about data by using the network's gravity centers or hubs.We'll find out that hubs come in many forms and stem from different notions of what it means to be central in a network. We'll learn how to find...

How to tell a story about data by using Community Detection in networks. Communities (or clusters) are the building blocks of all networks.In this episode we'll learn about their formation and special features, and how to apply this knowledge on Big ...

Dynamic networks are data science's Holy Grail. Here we'll learn why, and what are the applications and implications of dynamic networks. To do so, we'll have to understand what it has to do with complex system, chaos theory and, of course, groundhog...

Here we'll discuss why dynamic networks are chaotic and what are the implications and applications of this statement, especially, to the field of machine learning.  PLS review here: http://bit.ly/NETfrix_ReviewTranscripts are available on SNApod.netS...

Network Science and its dear friend, Data, are here to throw some of our intuitions about politics and partisanship under the nearest bus. Partisanship is Networks' nemesis: Networks are all about connecting while partisanship hacks away at the netwo...

Michele Coscia, an associate professor at IT University of Copenhagen by day, and by night, the author of the "Connecting Humanities" Blog for Network Science and "The Atlas for the Aspiring Network Scientist". Together we'll make history by telling...

This episode is dedicated to improving our intuitions about networks, using the naive idea of 6-Degrees-of-separation and flip it (literally). On the way, we'll learn some new network laws. SUBSCRIBE or review here: http://bit.ly/NETfrix_ReviewTransc...
