Glossary
- Social Network Analysis :
-
Graphical, statistical, and visualization metrics, algorithms, and techniques for analyzing structural data that can be represented as nodes and relations. Social network analysis is also referred to as network analysis, dynamic network analysis, network science, SNA, and DNA
- Social Media :
-
Data generated by online social networking tools such as Twitter, Facebook, or Foursquare. Social media networks are networks derived from social media data such as the Twitter retweet network. Social media are also referred to as online sources, open source, and e-media
- Dynamic Networks :
-
Networks that vary through time. An example is the network of who talks to whom within a company by day. Dynamic networks are also referred to as temporal networks, time variant networks, and dynamical networks
- Spatial Networks :
-
Networks embedded in space such that each node has one or more locations at which it occurs. An example...
