KHNetwork 2015 - International Workshop on Advances of Social Media K-H Networks (KHNetwork 2015)

K-H Networks'15 -- First Workshop Proposal Social Media K-H Networks are novel network models that recently emerged as Social Media exploded in popularity. The networks are based on relations between keywords and hashtags that can be computed by various means of computational algorithms. The current model is merely based on the associations that are derived by means of (Apriori, FPGrowth) algorithms. Such networks have proven to be promising when explored via means of network mining algorithms (such as HashnetMiner). K-H Networks have also demonstrated the phenomenon of a shrinking world, which shed light on the structure and the type of the network which can be linked to Small-World Networks. We hope to advance the science of network analysis and mining by offering this workshop which we believe will encourage further exploration in K-H Networks structure and mining.
Objectives
The objective of this workshop is to advance the current knowledge of K-H Networks from various point of view: (1) Expanding the scope of the K-H Networks beyond associations and explore other type of relations (e.g., proximity, ngrams, semantics, neighborhood). (2) Understanding the structure of the networks using Big Data sets. (3) Exploring the network structural properties. (4) Designing new network mining algorithms for Big Data networks. (5) Exploring the networks in various application domain (climate change, environmental sciences, business, biomedical, and political polarization). (6) Linking to public digital libraries and encyclopedia (e.g., EOL.ORG and NLM PubMed)
Submission Instructions
