Email: diesner[AT]cs.cmu.edu
Research Keywords: dynamic network analysis, text mining, AutoMap, co-evolution of social and knowledge networks
Affiliation: CASOS
Research:
My research combines methods for dealing with relational data, natural language processing and computational organization theory. I am particularly interested in understanding how the semantics and mechanics of real-world networks relate, especially during times of emergencies and crises.
