The SoNet Research Center at the Department of Informatics, Mendel University in Brno, and the fLexSem Research Group, Autonomous University of Barcelona, under the patronage of the IBM Dublin Center for Advanced Studies, invite you to the Second International Workshop SoNet-2010 "Social Networks: Computing and Mining."
Social networks (SNs) are structures made of individuals or organizations tied by specific types of interdependencies. The real-world structures are usually very complex, containing hidden, unapparent information and knowledge waiting for being revealed. SoNet-2010 includes tutorials and survey presentations from invited speakers, and new research results from participants focused on the recent multidisciplinary topic Social Networks. Special attention is given to methods related to social networks and natural language processing. SoNet-2010 encourages young researchers to actively participate in the Workshop. Main Topics: * Algorithms, methods, and technologies for building and analyzing SNs. * Automatic analyses of sentiment, subjectivity, and opinions in SNs. * Functions of similarity for searching for and clustering objects in SNs. * Knowledge mining and discovery in natural languages used in SNs. * Social networks and Web 2.0/3.0. * Economic, business, environmental, and medical applications of SNs. * Automated support for revealing plagiarism and looking for authorship in SNs. * Applications in the area of social activities. * Social networks and electronic participation of citizens in the management of regions, municipality, and communities (eParticipation). * All other recent interesting investigations aimed at SNs. |
