讲习班专题及讲者简介

专题（一）：计算社会学的理论与方法

报告摘要：不同于传统社会科学所依赖的调查问卷，来自社交网络的电子行为踪迹呈现了微观，异质，实时，大规模，和相互关联等特征。在此基础之上，基于互联网的大数据，以及传统的问卷调查与行政大数据结合，都成为新的研究平台，帮助学者来认识从人类行为和社会原理。计算社会科学属跨学科的新领域。许多重要的工作来自计算机科学，物理学和数学。我将介绍这些跨学科的方法，主要包括传统调查数据与大数据结合的法则、跨越社会宏观与微观结构的社会计算、基于文本数据的社会理论研究等。

专题（三）：Learning Representations of Large-scale Networks
报告摘要：Large-scale networks such as social networks, citation networks, the World Wide Web, and traffic networks are ubiquitous in the real world. Networks can also be constructed from text, time series, behavior logs, and many other types of data. Mining network data attracts increasing attention in academia and industry, covers a variety of applications, and influences the methodology of mining many types of data. A prerequisite to network mining is to find an effective representation of networks, which largely determines the performance of downstream data mining tasks. Traditionally, networks are usually represented as adjacency matrices, which suffer from data sparsity and high-dimensionality. Recently, there is a fast-growing interest in learning continuous and low-dimensional representations of networks. This is a challenging problem for multiple reasons: (1) networks data (nodes and edges) are sparse, discrete, and globally interactive; (2) real-world networks are very large, usually containing millions of nodes and billions of edges; and (3) real-world networks are heterogeneous. Edges can be directed, undirected or weighted, and both nodes and edges may carry different semantics. 

In this tutorial, we will introduce the recent progress on learning continuous and low-dimensional representations of large-scale networks. This includes methods that learn the embeddings of nodes, methods that learn representations of larger graph structures (e.g., an entire network), and methods that layout very large networks on extremely low (2D or 3D) dimensional spaces. We will introduce methods for learning different types of node representations: representations that can be used as features for node classification, community detection, link prediction, and network visualization. We will introduce end-to-end methods that learn the representation of the entire graph structure through directly optimizing tasks such as information cascade prediction, chemical compound cl

专题（四）：Network Embedding: Enabling Network Analytics and Inference in Vector Space

报告摘要：Nowadays, larger and larger, more and more sophisticated networks are used in more and more applications. It is well recognized that network data is sophisticated and challenging. To process graph data effectively, the first critical challenge is network data representation, that is, how to represent networks properly so that advanced analytic tasks, such as pattern discovery, analysis and prediction, can be conducted efficiently in both time and space. In this tutorial, we will review the recent thoughts and achievements on network embedding. More specifically, a series of fundamental problems in network embedding will be discussed, including why we need to revisit network representation, what are the research goals of network embedding, how network embedding can be learned, and the major future directions of network embedding.
