有關工作坊:
In the digital era, large amounts of demographic, behavioral and network data are now being produced, processed, transmitted, and analyzed at unprecedented speed, breadth, depth, and scale. Big and more complex data have become increasingly more available, accessible, and affordable. Focusing on the development and application of data science analytical techniques for complex human behaviors, human artifacts, as well as interactions between human artifacts and behaviors, Computational Social Sciences addresses fundamental social problems in various fields, including sociology, psychology, communication, political science, economics, management, tourism, etc.
The Computational Social Sciences Workshop is an interdisciplinary seminar series featuring distinguished speakers of broad interests in the social sciences who use computational methods to analyze data for research into human behaviors or artifacts. This workshop aims to bring together students, research fellows, and faculty members who are interested in computational social sciences for interdisciplinary collaborations.
