Visualization methods for longitudinal social networks and stochastic actor-oriented modeling [PDF]

open access: yesSocial Networks, 2012
Abstract As a consequence of the rising interest in longitudinal social networks and their analysis, there is also an increasing demand for tools to visualize them. We argue that similar adaptations of state-of-the-art graph-drawing methods can be used to visualize both, longitudinal networks and predictions of stochastic actor-oriented models (SAOMs),
