Market integration reduces kin density in women’s ego-networks in rural Poland [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 Market integration may loosen the dense kinship networks maintaining high fertility among agriculturalists, but data are lacking. Here, Colleran shows that in 22 rural Polish communities, women’s ego networks are less kin-oriented, but not less dense, as

Discovering social circles in ego networks [PDF]
ACM Transactions on Knowledge Discovery From Data, 2014 People's personal social networks are big and cluttered, and currently there is no good way to automatically organize them. Social networking sites allow users to manually categorize their friends into social circles (e.g., “circles” on Google+, and “lists” on Facebook and Twitter).

Defining and measuring probabilistic ego networks [PDF]
Social Network Analysis and Mining, 2020 AbstractAnalyzing ego networks to investigate local properties and behaviors of individuals is a fundamental task in social network research. In this paper we show that there is not a unique way of defining ego networks when the existence of edges is uncertain, since there are two different ways of defining the neighborhood of a node in such network ...

Analysis of Co-authorship Ego Networks
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2016 The availability of co-authorship data from large-scale electronic databases is paving the way for new analyses on human collaboration networks. The complex network of co-authorships can identify specific features that characterise the behaviour of researchers, and impact on their production and performance.
