SUMMARY:Temporal Distance Metrics for Social Network Analysis - John Tang 
 ( Computer Laboratory)
DTSTART:20090317T130000Z

CONTACT:Stephen Kell
DESCRIPTION:The analysis of social and technological networks has attracte
 d a lot of attention as social networking applications and mobile sensing 
 devices have given us a wealth of real data. Classic studies looked at ana
 lysing static networks\, i.e.\, networks that do not change over time or b
 uilt as the results of aggregation of information over a certain period of
  time\, however researchers are quickly starting to realise that connectio
 ns inherently vary over time and exhibit more dimensionality than static a
 nalysis can capture. This talklet presents work on temporal graphs and a s
 et of temporal metrics that capture the information diffusion properties o
 f a social network.
