The past 15 years have witnessed a remarkable increase in both the scale and scope of social and behavioral data available to researchers, leading some to herald the emergence of a new field: "computational social science." Against these exciting developments stands a stubborn fact: that in spite of many thousands of published papers, there has been ...

Computational social science and social computing
Machine Learning, 2013Computational social science is an emerging research area at the intersection of computer science, statistics, and the social sciences, in which novel computational methods are used to answer questions about society. The field is inherently collaborative: social scientists provide vital context and insight into pertinent research questions, data ...

Visualizing Computational Social Science
Science Communication, 2014Parallel advances in communication and visualization technologies have enabled the study and visualization of human behavior at a scale and level of detail never before possible. Nowhere are these advances more evident than within the emerging field of computational social science.

Incorporating Computational Social Science in Political Science
2022This chapter discusses the challenges and opportunities of incorporating computational social science (CSS) into political science. Using an original dataset of quantitative methods courses offered at the top-40 schools, this study shows that CSS courses are currently underrepresented, but their number is likely to augment because of the competition ...

Some Computer Applications in Social Science
American Sociological Review, 1965in error should diminish our inclination to conceive of associations between two variables as varying in degree only. Clearly, relationships have "shapes" or "forms" (represented in the rules for estimating one variable from another) that may be fully as informative as the degree of association. Since a "P-R-E" interpretation, strictly speaking, cannot

Computational Social Sciences Issues
2023This chapter defines a Discrete-Time and Continuous-Time Markov Chain Process aimed to identify the language used to write a text. This is a brief introduction to show the usefulness of both random walks in the recognition of a language, and how these methods can lead to deepen the recognition using other possible structural language.

Social science computing curricula
ACM SIGSOC Bulletin, 1975Several decades ago a new body of techniques sprouted from the field of mathematics. This new technology, which came to be called statistics, grew into an autonomous academic field despite confining pressures. Although the invention of computer techniques historically lagged behind statistics, its entry into the academic world is strikingly similar ...

Computation and Social Science
2014Social scientists have used computation since the days of the earliest digital computers. What is the role of computation in contemporary Computational Social Science (CSS) theory and research? How does computation provide a deeper understanding of social complexity? This chapter is not an introduction to computing for social scientists.
