Last week I presented our (@giuliorossetti.bsky.social) open #Bluesky dataset at @netsciconf.bsky.social. We release augmented, anonymized content/network data from 81% of users over a year. The #dataset is available at zenodo.org/records/1466... #networkscience #opendata #socialmedia #openscience

@vpansanella.bsky.social kickstarts our #SimulatedSocieties tutorial at #HHAI2025. Here we present YSocial, a #digitaltwin of a #socialmedia platform. Read more at ysocialtwin.github.io #networkscience #ai #llm

🚨New WP🚨 Remember Musk+Zuck+Trump+Jordan etc crying fact-checker bias b/c Reps were flagged more than Dems? We analyzed Community Notes on Musk's X and guess what: posts flagged as "misleading" are 67% more likely to be written by Reps! The issue is Reps, not fact-checkers... osf.io/preprints/ps...

Extremely happy to share that "Curation Bubbles" is online (open access!) at @apsrjournal.bsky.social: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

First day of #complexnetworks2024 🔍 Today, I presented our work (@andreajpg.bsky.social @giuliorossetti.bsky.social) Bots of a Feather: Mixing Biases in LLMs' Opinion Dynamics✨ #cna2024 #cna #networks

Today at #ComplexNetworks2024 i presented #YSocial , an LLM-powered #DigitalTwin of a #SocialMedia ecosystem. Find out more at ysocialtwin.github.io #NetworkScience #AI #LLM #ComputationalSocialScience (w/ @giuliorossetti.bsky.social & several other cool researxhers)

We are thrilled to announce the merger of two key organizations supporting early-career researchers in network science: SYNS (Society of Young Network Scientists) and NetPLACE (Networks, PhD Life, and Complexity). Together, we are now NetPlace!

New paper in PNAS 📰🚨 Beyond a binary theorizing of prosociality www.pnas.org/doi/full/10....

#YSocial v1.0.0 (Hoid) is out! This version integrates: - News Pages - Agents' dynamic interests - Multimodal (Text & Image) content sharing - Agents' churn Try it out and let us know! #SocialDigitalTwin ysocialtwin.github.io/blog/

If you have the feeling that @bsky.app is different, maybe you are right. The current migration is breaking the typical rich-get-richer effect wrt other platforms #scaling Data: Twitter: 10.9M users BlueSky (Mar 2024): 4.1M users, 🙏 @andreajpg.bsky.social Mastodon: 3.8M users, 🙏 @tiago.skewed.de

Interested in human behavior analysis/modeling? You should definitely check our social media digital twin

If you're interested in social networks, you should follow @soc-net-bot.bsky.social which shares new arxiv preprints about Social and Information Networks & Physics and Society

The BlueSky team created a great tool to help newcomers: starter packs. Here a quick starter pack for #complexity and network scientists + feeds to quickly join the community! #NetSky Please, help to share (and if you are not in the list, get in touch and I will add you) go.bsky.app/KMfiTU2

Excited to share our new work on #MachineLearning! We reimagine group evolution in temporal data with "archetypes" and "facets". Check out the paper for more👇 link.springer.com/article/10.1... W/ Rémy Cazabet, Giulio Rossetti & Salvatore Citraro #netsci #clustering #academicsky #science
