Homophily‐adjusted social influence estimation [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Homophily and social influence are two key concepts of social network analysis. Distinguishing between these phenomena is difficult, and approaches to disambiguate the two have been primarily limited to longitudinal data analyses. In this study, we provide sufficient conditions for valid estimation of social influence through cross‐sectional ...

Revisiting Graph Homophily Measures [PDF]

CoRR
Homophily is a graph property describing the tendency of edges to connect similar nodes. There are several measures used for assessing homophily but all are known to have certain drawbacks: in particular, they cannot be reliably used for comparing datasets with varying numbers of classes and class size balance.

What Is Missing In Homophily? Disentangling Graph Homophily For Graph Neural Networks [PDF]

CoRR
Graph homophily refers to the phenomenon that connected nodes tend to share similar characteristics. Understanding this concept and its related metrics is crucial for designing effective Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). The most widely used homophily metrics, such as edge or node homophily, quantify such "similarity" as label consistency across the graph ...

Borrower‐lender political homophily and loan characteristics

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates political homophily between the top executives of borrowers and lenders. We observe a high level of political homophily between borrowers' and lenders' management teams, with a one‐standard‐deviation increase in homophily associated with an increase in spreads of approximately 126 basis points.

Homophily and infections: Static and dynamic effects [PDF]

We analyze the effect of homophily in the diffusion of a harmful state between two groups of agents that differ in immunization rates. Homophily has a very different impact on the steady state infection level (that is increasing in homophily when ...

Do they get what they want or are they stuck with what they can get? Testing homophily against default selection for friendships of highly aggressive boys [PDF]

, 2010
In this study a homophily selection hypothesis was tested against a default selection hypothesis, to answer whether preferred and realized friendships of highly aggressive boys differed.
