Data Science

In our research, we address various issues pertaining to the broader topic of data science. We are particularly interested in the development of methods for the study of large relational datasets, complex systems analysis, and collections of time-stamped interactions from various disciplines.

The methods highlighted here range from network science tools, data scraping and inference, and disambiguation.
