Reposted by Yu TianSadamori Kojaku @skojaku.bsky.social · 13/06/2025Very grateful to work w/ @yutian.bsky.social @hirokisayama.bsky.social Renaud Lambiotte for this foundational work! It made us rethink what constitutes a "unit" of interaction, leading to the idea that grouped coherent edges can form a single interaction (matrices). Hope this brings a new angle 🙂. 074
Yu Tian @yutian.bsky.social · 24/06/2025We are all very excited about this idea of matrix-weighted networks (MWNs) — always happy to discuss more! 092

We highlight the importance of disaggregating graph-wide motif counts by (i) the nodes that participate and (ii) the time they occur. arxiv.org/abs/2402.09272 042
Yu Tian @yutian.bsky.social · 05/02/2024Time to advertise my talk (and my new profile 😎)! Let’s discuss signed networks / negative connections, and (many*n) challenges in academia!! 010
Reposted by Yu TianNetSci 2026 @netsciconf.bsky.social · 12/01/2024We are extending the abstract submission deadline to Jan 22nd. That's ten extra days! Our resolution for 2024 is to best serve the network science community. And that starts with making sure everyone can submit their projects in their best possible state. 0910
Yu Tian @yutian.bsky.social · 21/10/2023My short visit of Vermont Complex Systems Center 🐙 Very much enjoyed my time there: discussing many interesting ideas!! 😇 Special thanks to @jgyou.bsky.social and also @nwlandry.bsky.social, who helped me a lot figure out my trip, even though it has to be much shorter due to external issues. 2121
