***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org *****My first ever SNA project used terrorist videos of US deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan. I had a research team of students that classified 9 different attributes of videos. The videos became nodes. If there were 6 attributes in common we determined that there was a link between them. This was based on a phase transition threshold. We ran several clustering algorithms to identify groups of videos. Reviewing the grouped videos allowed analysts to identify forensic clues that would otherwise have been missed. This information was provided to military units in Iraq and Afghanistan to apprehend the terrorists and bring them to trial. The process was never classified, but I was asked to refrain from publishing the project at the time.Ian McCulloh, PhDCurtin University Business School_____________________________________________________________________ SOCNET is a service of INSNA, the professional association for social network researchers (http://www.insna.org).

***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org *****It's not exactly structural analysis, but its a good example of racial homophily and photos. Work by an old collaborator at U. Toronto on interracial friendships in wedding photography:Take care,BERNiEDr Bernie HoganResearch Fellow, Oxford Internet InstituteUniversity of OxfordABSTRACT:"Friendship patterns are instrumental for testing important hypotheses about assimilation processes and group boundaries. Wedding photos provide an opportunity to directly observe a realistic representation of close interracial friendships and race relations. An analysis of 1,135 wedding party photos and related information shows that whites are especially unlikely to have black friends who are close enough to be in their wedding party. Adjusting for group size, whites and East and Southeast Asians (hereafter, E/SE Asians) are equally likely to be in each other's weddings, but whites invite blacks to be in their wedding parties only half as much as blacks invite whites, and E/SE Asians invite blacks only one-fifth as much as blacks invite E/SE Asians. In interracial marriages, both E/SE Asian and black spouses in marriages to whites are significantly less likely than their white spouses to have close friendships with members of their spouse's race."On 2013-08-13, at 3:04 PM, Gilad Ravid <[log in to unmask]> wrote:***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org *****_____________________________________________________________________ SOCNET is a service of INSNA, the professional association for social network researchers (http://www.insna.org).
