Special Session: Advanced Computational Big-Data and Social Network

Network science can be seen as a specialization of data science that focuses on network data, or alternatively, as a particular method in complexity research. Typically, the network perspective reveals patterns and emerging phenomena that are not visible when the mere individual objects in the data are studied. Many real-world systems can be modeled as a network, in which, social networks are of great important because of its popularity, computational challenges due to their large scale.

This Special Session (SS) provides an interdisciplinary forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from all fields of big data and social networks, such as billion-scale network computing, social network/media analysis, mining, security and privacy, and deep learning. The session solicits theoretical, methodological, empirical, and experimental research reporting original and unpublished results on computational big data and social networks. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Real-world Complex Networks Analysis
  • Trends and Pattern Analysis in Social Networks
  • Representation Learning on Networks
  • Big Data Network Analysis
  • Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of Real-world Social Platforms
  • Network Structure Analysis and Dynamics Optimization
  • Data Network Design and Architecture
  • Information Diffusion Models and Techniques
  • Security and Privacy in Data Networks
  • Efficient Algorithms for Large-scale Data Networks Computing
  • Reputation and Trust in Social Media
  • Social Influence, Recommendation, and Media
  • Applications of Complex Data Network Analysis
  • Natural Language Understanding for Social Media
  • E-commerce and Social Media Marketing
  • Deep Learning on Graphs and its Application
  • Stock Market Prediction and Stock Recommendation with Social Media Data
  • Anomaly Detection, Security, and Privacy in Big Data Networks
  • Analysis of signed and attributed real-world networks
  • Multidimensional graph analysis
  • Algorithmic fairness in social network analysis and graph mining.
