Exciting news! Marco Fernandez da Silva (right) is the 25th recipient of the Zachary's Karate Club CLUB prize. For his talk @netsciconf.bsky.social NetSci 2026, he was awarded the trophy of legend from @nwlandry.bsky.social on behalf of @arash.network. #networkscience networkkarate.tumblr.com

The official handshake passing off the Zachary Karate Club trophy though the trophy itself nor Arash Badie-Modiri were sadly not able to be there.

When you have network data with node metadata, how can you use them to improve community detection? One way is to make the communities align with the metadata. In our new preprint, we propose another way: to discount the effects of the metadata from the detected communities. arxiv.org/abs/2502.20083

Block-corrected Modularity for Community Detection

Unknown node attributes in complex networks may introduce community structures that are important to distinguish from those driven by known attributes. We propose a block-corrected modularity that dis...

Incivility and Contentiousness Spillover between COVID-19 and Climate Science Engagement

Affective polarization and its accompanying cleavage-based sorting drives incivility and contentiousness around climate change and other science-related issues. Looking at the COVID-19 period, we stud...
