| Call for Workshop Papers: Multi-Source Network Fusion and Analysis (MSNFA) |
Scope:
With the popularity of social network applications, social network analysis technology has been widely used in areas, such as business intelligence and public security. Since social information can be acquired from different social platforms and applications, multi-source social data analysis has attracted much attention. Fusing social information from different sources and types is a more accurate and effective way to understand and analyses the behavior of users and groups. While focusing on different social platforms and applications, the fusion analysis of different types of data draws more and more scholarsÂ’ attention, especially the rich social relationship information in Multimodal data, such as video, text and image data. Most real-world applications can be served as multi-layer networks (multiplex networks) and heterogeneous information networks and so on, which include different networks based on different sources and types. The multi-source network analysis is an accurate and effective way to comprehensively analyses social networks. Meanwhile, multi-source information network fusion and analysis face some challenges, such as how to construct multi-source networks from text and video, how to fuse different networks without loss of information, how to learn the embedding of node or edge from different networks, and how to align different networks.
The emphasis of this workshop shall be analysis approaches and applications based on multi-source, multi-view and multi-model networks. The previous four workshops have been successfully held in Changsha(2016), Shenzhen(2017), Guangzhou(2018) and Hangzhou(2019). This workshop shall help to bring together people from these different areas and present an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to share new techniques for multi-source networks fusion and analysis. Contributions that push the state of the art in all facets of multi-source network are encouraged and welcomed.
