Github Collaboration Network

Networks reveal patterns that disappear when data points are viewed alone. We discuss the GitHub Collaboration Network with Behnaz Moradi-Jamei, assistant professor at James Madison University. As a network scientist, Behnaz created and analyzed a network of about 700,000 contributors to Github's repository.

Behnaz Moradi-Jamei: My work centers on developing innovative algorithms for community detection in network data and conducting inference on networks, with attention to equity and fairness in network structures and algorithms. This interdisciplinary approach allows me to explore and uncover the intricate patterns and structures within complex systems. I focus on developing novel preprocessing methods, validation frameworks, and interpretable algorithms for diverse applications. My research can be applied to any system with entities and relationships among them, making it versatile across various fields and disciplines.
