Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Network and data sciences are indispensable in understanding the patterns of interconnections in a wide range of complex social, biological, and physical systems. As a domain that intertwines both network and data science, “Network Data Science” refers to the use of data science algorithms, techniques, and tools in the modeling and analysis of network data.
Our everyday lives are pervaded by several social networks. Using these networks, we follow, connect, and share with family, colleagues, friends, and even unknowns (e.g., Facebook), search for jobs and opportunities (e.g., LinkedIn), evaluate and recommend products and services (e.g., Yelp), work or establish collaborative projects (e.g., Github), or communicate and keep ourselves conversant with the news and topics of our interests (e.g., Reddit). The wealth of network data available from these platforms provides us with the opportunity to explore complex social interactions and human dynamics and different social phenomena including social structure evolution, communities, network spread, and the dynamics of changes in networks.
This Special Issue hopes to serve as a solid international exchange platform for both network and data scientists and invites both network science fundamental research and application-driven research on network link analysis, centrality and prestige, modularity, communities, biases and manipulation, visualization, dynamics of information, opinion mining, and models of information diffusion. It welcomes the application of network analysis in different social, biological, and physical networks.

Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs).
