Social Networks for Spreading
I will consider three aspects of spreading processes such as disease epidemics, gossip, or social influence, on networks: (1) modelling the heterogeneity in the number of contacts made; (2) evidence for ‘transmission' of non-infectious diseases, in particular mood disorders on adolescent social networks; (3) graph sampling of large networks (thousands of nodes).
