Computational Social Science; a new social physics
-
This is a past event
A look at how the data from digital technology we use everyday can be used.
As digital technologies, the internet and social media become increasingly integrated into society, our daily lives generate unprecedented quantities of digital data. These data provide opportunities to study complex social systems in frameworks similar to those of the natural sciences. We will discuss these new opportunities and the latest advancements in Computational Social Science.
