Professionally, I'm the George J. Klir Professor of Systems Science at the Thomas J. Watson College of Engineering and Applied Science (Department of Systems Science and Industrial Engineering), Binghamton University (State University of New York), where I lead the Complex Adaptive Systems and Computational Intelligence (CASCI: https://casci.binghamton.edu/) lab. I'm also Principal Investigator at the Instituto Gulbenkian da Ciencia in Portugal.
Full text now available on PubMed Central. I love PMC and that federally-funded research becomes available to the public there.
"The distance backbone of #complexnetworks" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10859673/
Wonderful experience advising MS thesis of Miguel Bernardo Pereira @istecnico , with work conducted @IGCiencia and @BUSSIEDept on distance backbones of #complexnetworks. So rewarding to be spreading and expanding work initiated by George Klir, whose work I first heard about within these walls.
Are biological #complexnetworks near critical? Existing #systemsbiology models are not, as shown in our recent work with Jordan C Rozum, Reka Albert, Kyu Hyong Park, and Felipe Costa.

So happy to finally see this collaboration with Rion Correia and @alainbarrat out. The distance backbone is a unique, algebraically-principled network subgraph that preserves all shortest paths. We were were excited to find out (with #sociopatterns and other data) that the backbones of #socialnetworks contain large amounts of redundant interactions that can be removed with very little impact on #communitystructure and #epidemic spread.

We're super happy to have contributed the special issue of #Entropy on The Principle of Dynamical #Criticality in #biologicalsystems.
"Effective Connectivity and Bias Entropy Improve Prediction of Dynamical Regime in #Automata Networks"
#redundancy and canalization play major role in predicting #Dynamics, even after accounting for #heterogeneous #complexnetworks structure, in experimentally-validated biochemical regulation models and random networks. Emphasizing role of redundancy in #evolutionary.systems. #complexsystems
In addition to the positions in #complexNetworks and #Complexsystems above, I would like to draw your attention to Associate Professor position below which also welcomes (more senior) applicants in the same areas with focus on #health and #datascience.

Today at #ComplexNetworks 2022 I will give two talks summarizing our lab's work on #redundancy in #complexsystems . One focusing on network structure (session 4A) and the other on dynamics on and off networks (session 5C). See you there!
If you are interested in network #sparsification methods, come see Felipe Xavier Costa show that distance #backbones can be applied to #directedgraphs, session 3C at #ComplexNetworks 2022.
@lamaral opening #complexnetworks 2022 with a thought-provoking keynote "An opinionated evaluation of where we are after a quarter century of complex networks“ in Palermo.
