Social networks

…been shown to ‘spread’ through human social networks. In particular, the spread of obesity in this manner has been identified as a contributing factor to the obesity epidemic. While specific neural reward systems such as the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) have been implicated in social information processing, it is not well understood how more complex social factors, such as the motivation behind a social partner’s decision, are integrated into neural valuation signals that underlie one’s own prefere

…with applications including molecules, social networks and recommendation systems.

In our everyday lives, we form connections and build up social networks that allow us to function successfully as individuals and as a society. Our social networks tend to include well-connected individuals who link us to other groups of people that we might otherwise have limited access to. In addition, we are more likely to befriend individuals who a) live nearby and b) have mutual friends. Interestingly, neurons tend to do the same…until development is perturbed. Just like social networks, neuronal networks require highly connected hubs to elicit efficient communication at minimal cost (you

…Complex systems like molecules, social networks and industrial factory systems can be described using the common language of knowledge graphs, allowing the usage of graph embedding algorithms to make context-aware predictions in these information-packed environments.

…modulations can occur through our social networks, through the impact of
