About the Workshop

This workshop aims to bring together researchers who are working on and/or interested in various aspects of Network Geometry. Broadly defined, the field of Network Geometry encompasses any studies in Network Science that either explicitly use geometry or have geometric interpretations. The scope of this workshop extends well beyond geometric network models and the problems of geometric network representations (aka network embeddings) and includes network topology of higher-order interactions, network geometry in machine learning, the emergence of network geometry from network dynamics, and geometric interpretations of network inference methods. Of particular interest are the applications of Network Geometry. Examples of disciplines that benefit from these results are  Neuroscience, Biomedicine, Social Sciences, and Telecommunications.

Call for Contributions

Call for abstracts is OPEN!

We invite contributions from all areas of network geometry, including but not limited to:

  • Geometric network models
  • Network embeddings
  • Higher-order interactions (simplicial complexes, hypergraphs)
  • Emergence of geometry through network dynamics and growth
  • Applications of network geometry in machine learning
  • Real-world applications in neuroscience, biomedicine, social sciences, and telecommunications
  • Navigability, diffusion, and synchronization processes in networks

Submit your abstract on the Google Form by February 10th in the format of a one-page pdf with one figure. Posters may be presented at both the satellite and at the main conference.

Note that you must register for NetSci to attend (there is an option to select only the satellite sessions and school) and the early bird registration deadline is February 25th.
