Robotic collectives are large groups (at least 50) of locally sensing and communicating robots that encompass characteristics of swarms and colonies, whose emergent behaviors accomplish complex tasks. Future human-collective teams will…
As groups of robots increasingly collaborate with humans, understanding how humans perceive them is critical for designing effective human-robot teams. While prior research examined how humans interpret and evaluate the abilities and…
Community detection is of great importance for online social network analysis. The volume, variety and velocity of data generated by today's online social networks are advancing the way researchers analyze those networks. For instance,…
Educational data mining has become an important research field in studying the social behavior of college students using massive data. However, traditional campus friendship network and their community detection algorithms, which lack time…
Face recognition in collaborative learning videos presents many challenges. In collaborative learning videos, students sit around a typical table at different positions to the recording camera, come and go, move around, get partially or…
Social group detection is a crucial aspect of various robotic applications, including robot navigation and human-robot interactions. To date, a range of model-based techniques have been employed to address this challenge, such as the…
In the last few years, there has been a great interest in detecting overlapping communities in complex networks, which is understood as dense groups of nodes featuring a low outbound density. To date, most methods used to compute such…
Research into human dynamical systems has long sought to identify robust signals for human behavior. We have discovered a series of social network-based indicators that are reliable predictors of team creativity and collaborative…
Human and robot partners increasingly need to work together to perform tasks as a team. Robots designed for such collaboration must reason about how their task-completion strategies interplay with the behavior and skills of their human team…
We propose a novel method to find the community structure in complex networks based on an extremal optimization of the value of modularity. The method outperforms the optimal modularity found by the existing algorithms in the literature. We…
Cycles are ubiquitous in various networks such as social, biological, and technological systems, where they play a significant functional and dynamical role. This paper proposes a node similarity measure based on minimal simple cycles,…
Incorporating fresh members in teams is considered a pathway to team creativity. However, whether freshness improves team performance or not remains unclear, as well as the optimal involvement of fresh members for team performance. This…
Many networks including social networks, computer networks, and biological networks are found to divide naturally into communities of densely connected individuals. Finding community structure is one of fundamental problems in network…
Community discovery is one of the most studied problems in network science. In recent years, many works have focused on discovering communities in temporal networks, thus identifying dynamic communities. Interestingly, dynamic communities…
Community detection is a core tool for analyzing large realworld graphs. It is often used to derive additional local features of vertices and edges that will be used to perform a downstream task, yet the impact of community detection on…
Social network analysis is a popular discipline among the social and behavioural sciences, in which the relationships between different social entities are modelled as a network. One of the most popular problems in social network analysis…
In recommendation systems, items are likely to be exposed to various users and we would like to learn about the familiarity of a new user with an existing item. This can be formulated as an anomaly detection (AD) problem distinguishing…
Understanding of the mechanisms driving our daily face-to-face encounters is still limited; the field lacks large-scale datasets describing both individual behaviors and their collective interactions. However, here, with the help of travel…
The relationship of friends in social networks can be strong or weak. Some research works have shown that a close relationship between friends conducts good community structure. Based on this result, we propose an effective method in…
A long-standing hypothesis in neuroscience is that the central nervous system accomplishes complex motor behaviors through the combination of a small number of motor primitives. Many studies in the last couples of decades have identified…
