What is Network Analysis
0 Social Network Analysis is the study of social networks
among a set of actors
0 Focus is on the relationships between the actors and not on
the actors themselves
- Some relationships are more important than others
- Some actors are more important than other actors
0 Data collection and analysis
- Collect data and build a graph, analyze the graph
- Manual process consisted of filling questionnaire and
analyzing the data using statistical methods
- Automated methods: extracting nuggets from massive
amounts of data and building relationships

Development of Social Networks
0 Social scientists influenced the field since the 1930s
0 Moreno’s concept of sociogram
- Sociogram visualized as a collection of nodes and links
0 WWW is a collection of nodes and links
- Links in the WWW represents the relations between two
web pages
3/26/2016 08:29
23-9
Concepts and Measures in Network Analysis
0 Networks represented as graphs
- Mathematical representations of a graph could be a
matrix.
- 1 represents a links between nodes Vi and Vj.
- 0 if there no link between Vi and Vj
0 Add weights to links
- Strength between Vi and Vj is 0.9, between Vi and Vk is
0.2
0 Observations
- People are separated by 6 steps
- Most people have about two coauthors while very few
have more than 20 coauthors

Concepts and Measures in Network Analysis
0 Analysis
- Find in-degree and out-degree
- Find the hub
- Find the clusters
0 Questions to answer
- Important people in the network
- Who do people go to often

Semantic Social Networks
0 The latest breed of social networking services combine social networks
with the sharing of content such as bookmarks, documents, photos,
reviews.
0 The use of of Semantic Web technology facilitated distributed control.
-
The friend-of-a-friend (FOAF) project is a first attempt at a formal,
machine processable representation of user profiles and friendship
networks. (Unlike with Friendster and similar sites that have central
control)
-
FOAF profiles are created and controlled by the individual user and
shared in a distributed fashion.

FOAF
0 The Friend of a Friend (FOAF) project is creating a Web of
machine-readable pages describing people, the links between
them and the things they create and do; it is a contribution to
the linked information system known as the Web.
0 FOAF defines an open, decentralized technology for
connecting social Web sites, and the people they describe.
0 FOAF is part of a shift towards a Web where we can choose
the sites and tools we like, without being cut off from friends
who made different choices.
0 FOAF lets you share and inter-connect information from
diverse sources, move it around, and use it in unexpected
new ways.

FLINK (Peter Mika, Free University)
0 Flink, the system developed at Free University 9The Netherlands) is one
of the early semantic social networks that exploits FOAF for the
purposes of social intelligence.
- social intelligence, is consdiered to be the semantics-based
integration and analysis of social knowledge extracted from
electronic sources under diverse ownership or control. In our case,
these sourcesFrom
0 Flink extracts knowledge about the social networks of the community
and consolidates what is learned using a common semantic
representation, namely the FOAF

FLINK Architecture
0
The architecture of Flink can be divided in three layers concerned with metadata
acquisition, storage and visualization
0
Acquisition layer of the system concerns the acquisition of metadata. (e.g., HTML pages
from the web, FOAF profiles from the Semantic Web, public collections of emails and
bibliographic data)
0
The web mining component of Flink employs a co-occurrence analysis technique The
web mining component also performs the additional task of finding topic interests, i.e.
associating researchers with certain areas of research.
0
The middle layer is responsible for storing and enhancing metadata through reasoning.
0
Inference is another major task of the middle layer. Sesame (we can also use JENA)
applies the RDF closure rules to the data at upload time. This feature can be extended
by defining domain-specific inference rules in Sesame’s custom rule language.
0
The third layer, is the browing and visualization layer,. The user interface of Flink is a
pure Java web application based on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) paradigm.

Social Network Analysis on Semantic Web Data
0 Social network analysis tasks for Flink augments the web mining
task with finding which people belong to which groups (called
GROUP DETECTION)
0 The association and links between people including what is the
relationship between John and James? Are they just friends or do
they have a romantic relationship? Do they often travel together?
0 Semantic web reasoning tools (e.g., based on OWL, RDF and SWRL)
may be used to reason and extract the nuggets.
3/26/2016 08:29
23-21
Group Detection
0 A large community often breaks up to a set of closely knit groups of
individuals, woven together more loosely by the occasional
interaction across groups.
Based on this theory, SNA offers a number of clustering algorithms for
identifying communities based on network data. Alternatively, the
subgroups may be identified by the researcher using additional
attribute data on the
Peter Mika’s research uses an interactive clustering software
provided as a sample with the JUNG Java toolkit for SNA. This
software allows the user to cluster a network using an edgebetweenness clusterand visualize the results.
As an example, a group of researchers from the AIFB Institute of the
University of Karlsruhe quickly emerge as a single cluster of the
network.

Linking Social Networks with FOAF
0 One of the core goals of the Semantic Web is to store data in distributed
locations, and use ontologies and reasoning to aggregate it.
0 Social networking is a large movement on the web, and social networking
data using the Friend of a Friend (FOAF) vocabulary makes up a
significant portion of all data on the Semantic Web.
0 Many traditional web-based social networks share their members’
information in FOAF format.
0 While this is by far the largest source of FOAF online, there is no
information about whether the social network models from each network
overlap to create a larger unified social network model, or whether they
are simply isolated components.
0 Researchers at the U of MD have studied the intersection of FOAF data
found in many online social networks. Using the semantics of the FOAF
ontology and applying Semantic Web reasoning techniques, they show
that a significant percentage of profiles can be merged from multiple
networks.

23-23
Extracting Social Networks
0 Extracting social network from noisy, real world data is a
challenging task, even if the information is already encoded in RDF
using well defined ontologies.
0 The process consists of three steps: discovering instances of
foaf:Person, merging information about unique individuals, and
linking person through various social relation properties such as
foaf:knows.
3/26/2016 08:29
23-24
Extracting Social Networks (Tim Finin)
0 A critical problem is determining whether two foaf:Person instances
denote the same person. The semantics of FOAF vocabulary
suggests several heuristics to answer this question:
- • named URI. Non-anonymous individuals using the same URI
denote the same person.
- • Inverse-functional properties. Inverse functional properties
such as foaf:mbox and foaf:homepage identify unique
individuals. Other properties, such as foaf:name and foaf:nick,
while not strictly inverse functional, can be used in practice in
conjunction with other properties like foaf:phone to identify
individuals with high probability.
-
0 \
Semantic equality. When two or more values of an inverse
functional property co-exist in the same individual’s description,
they are semantically equivalent as identifying the same
individual.

Military Stabilization and
Reconstruction Operations (SARO)
0
Four concurrent tasks have to carry out in parallel (NDU Study). They are the following:
0
(i) Security: Ensure that those who attempt to destroy the emergence of a new society
are suppressed. This will include identifying that are the trouble makers or terrorists and
destroy their capabilities.
0
(ii) Law and order: Military and police skills are combined to ensure that there are no
malicious efforts to disturb peace.
0
(iii) Repair infrastructure: Utilize the expertise of engineers and geographers both from
allied countries and local people and build the infrastructure.
0
(iv) Establish an interim government effectively: Understand the cultures of the local
people, their religious beliefs and their political connections and establish a government.

Dr. Karen Guttieri states that Human Terrain is a crucial aspect and we need hyperlinks
to People, Places, Things and Events to answer questions such as * Which people are
where? Where are their centers and boundaries? Who are their leaders Who is who in
the zoo? What are their issues and needs? What is the news and reporting? Essentially
the human domain associations builds relationships between the who, what, where,
when and why (5W)
