I don't do a lot of #NetworkAnalysis in my work, but there are many in @digigeolab who do, and presumably here as well.

I know #NetworkX is a commonly used Python library for such analysis, but it is a bit slow. However, there is a new spin of it called #RustworkX written in Rust, which makes it blisteringly fast.

Here are some benchmarks: rustworkx.org/dev/benchmarks.h

Has anyone tried it? Any opinions?

Remember Use.Net?

(It was one of the earliest online discussion forrums from pre 2000.)

Tim Kinnear has been using computational and quantitative methods to analyze early online #atheism communities (e.g., alt.atheism).

Super cool research program!

I didn't find a place to follow Tim, but Tim's contact info is in another #conference program if you want to reach out: basr.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/

arXiv.orgSeqnature: Extracting Network Fingerprints from Packet SequencesThis paper proposes a general network fingerprinting framework, Seqnature, that uses packet sequences as its basic data unit and that makes it simple to implement any fingerprinting technique that can be formulated as a problem of identifying packet exchanges that consistently occur when the fingerprinted event is triggered. We demonstrate the versatility of Seqnature by using it to implement five different fingerprinting techniques, as special cases of the framework, which broadly fall into two categories: (i) fingerprinting techniques that consider features of each individual packet in a packet sequence, e.g., size and direction; and (ii) fingerprinting techniques that only consider stream-wide features, specifically what Internet endpoints are contacted. We illustrate how Seqnature facilitates comparisons of the relative performance of different fingerprinting techniques by applying the five fingerprinting techniques to datasets from the literature. The results confirm findings in prior work, for example that endpoint information alone is insufficient to differentiate between individual events on Internet of Things devices, but also show that smart TV app fingerprints based exclusively on endpoint information are not as distinct as previously reported.

Are there any good tools for analysing your Mastodon network in a #GraphTheory / #NetworkAnalysis kind of way?

I'd love to:
- visualise the different groups of people that I follow: what are the connections between the people that I follow?
- see which accounts post a lot, or not at all
- see which accounts I interact with the most (are there people that I followed but it turns out I'm not actually interested in what they post now?)
- see what hours I and others post

Thought I'd post an (academic) #introduction. :D I am an Assistant Professor at the University of #Groningen, with current research focus on #largscale #networkanalysis (#networkscience) working within the #InformationSystems Group; I previously worked on #humancomputation (don't like the term), #socialcomputing, #distributedsystems at #tuwien. Interested in socio-tech. issues, including #ethics #privacy, tech #policy

@academicchatter

I'm overdue for an #introduction. I'm an academic #librarian and lead a group of research and #instruction folks at #Wellesley College outside #Boston.

Interested in all things #DigitalHumanities & co-teach a course on #NetworkAnalysis in 18th c French history & literature.

#Introduction I'm a PhD candidate at UT Austin, in my last year (phew!) Current work mostly involves #NetworkAnalysis with some light #GIS. Dissertation is on the Pforzheimer collection, the Cotton library's early records, & the DIMEV. Another project on network analysis + medieval biography + Hereford Cathedral Muniments. Hoping to work on Durham Cathedral #Library records in the near future.

I'm big into #art and #crafts and #gaming in my free time. Also hoping to start a small goat farm soon
