This paper presents a comprehensive and quality collection of functional human brain network data for potential research in the intersection of neuroscience, machine learning, and graph analytics.Anatomical and functional MRI images of the brain have been used to understand the functional connectivity of the human brain and are particularly important in identifying underlying neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Autism. Recently, the study of the brain in the form of brain networks using machine learning and graph analytics has become increasingly popular, especially to predict the early onset of these conditions. A brain network, represented as a graph, retains richer structural and positional information that traditional examination methods are unable to capture. However, the lack of brain network data transformed from functional MRI images prevents researchers from data-driven explorations. One of the main difficulties lies in the complicated domain-specific preprocessing steps and the exhaustive computation required to convert data from MRI images into brain networks. We bridge this gap by collecting a large amount of available MRI images from existing studies, working with domain experts to make sensible design choices, and preprocessing the MRI images to produce a collection of brain network datasets. The datasets originate from 6 different sources, cover 4 neurodegenerative conditions, and consist of a total of 2,688 subjects.Due to the data protocol, we are unable to release the ADNI dataset here. The data will be released via the ADNI external data submissions within their data system.We test our graph datasets on 5 machine learning models commonly used in neuroscience and on a recent graph-based analysis model to validate the data quality and to provide domain baselines. To lower the barrier to entry and promote the research in this interdisciplinary field, we release our complete preprocessing details, codes, and brain network data: https://github.com/brainnetuoa/data_driven_network_neuroscience.To stay informed about the new updates of the datasets, kindly provide us with your email address:https://forms.gle/KGAajR6LEysXWKvKAUpdated on 10/09/2024:Please note that we have identified 14 subjects in the PPMI (Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative) dataset, prodromal group, where the time-series images include only 10 time slots.

Twitter Reply Networks We apply our techniques to Twitter reply networks. These networks are constructed from tweets we collected via Twitter gardenhose API service between September 9, 1998 and November 17, 1998. Each network is weighted and directed, whereby entries in the (i,j) cell of the adjacency matrix represent the number of replies directed from node i to node j. Note that there is no correlation between node labels from week to week. For example, the individual represented by node 1 in Week 1 is not the same individual represented by node 1 in Weeks 2, 3 and so forth. Each network is presented as a Matlab (.mat) file.

The SMART-DS datasets (Synthetic Models for Advanced, Realistic Testing: Distribution systems and Scenarios) are realistic large-scale U.S. electrical distribution models for testing advanced grid algorithms and technology analysis. This document provides a user guide for the datasets. This dataset contains synthetic detailed electrical distribution network models, and connected timeseries loads for the greater San Francisco (SFO), Greensboro, and Austin areas. It is intended to provide researchers with very realistic and complete models that can be used for extensive powerflow simulations under a variety of scenarios. The data is synthetic, but has been validated against thousands of utility feeders to ensure statistical and operational similarity to electrical distribution networks in the US. The OpenDSS data is partitioned into several regions (each zipped separately). After unzipping these files, each region has a folder for each substation, and subsequent folders for each feeder within the substation. This allows users to simulate smaller sections of the full dataset. Each of these folders (region, substation and feeder) has a folder titled "analysis" which contains CSV files listing voltages and overloads throughout the network for the peak loading time in the year. It also contains .png files showing the loading of residential and commercial loads on the network for every day of the year, and daily breakdowns of loads for commercial building categories. Time series data is provided in the "profiles" folder including real and reactive power at 15 minute resolution along with parquet files in the "endues" folder with breakdowns of building end-uses.

How does individuals’ influence in a large social network change? Social scientists have difficulty answering this question because measuring influence requires frequent observations of a population of individuals’ connections to each other, while sampling that social network removes information in a way that can bias inferences. This paper introduces a method to measure influence over time accurately from sampled network data. Ranking individuals by the sum of their connections’ connections — neighbor cumulative indegree centrality — preserves the rank influence ordering that would be achieved in the presence of complete network data, lowering the barrier to measuring influence accurately. The paper then shows how to measure that variable changes each day, making it possible to analyze when and why an individual’s influence in a network changes. This method is demonstrated and validated on 21 Twitter accounts in Bahrain and Egypt from early 2011. The paper then discusses how to use the method in domains such as voter mobilization and marketing.

Decentralized finance (DeFi) is known for its unique mechanism design, which applies smart contracts to facilitate peer-to-peer transactions. The decentralized bank is a typical DeFi application. Ideally, a decentralized bank should be decentralized in the transaction. However, many recent studies have found that decentralized banks have not achieved a significant degree of decentralization. This research conducts a comparative study among mainstream decentralized banks. We apply core-periphery network features analysis using the transaction data from four decentralized banks, Liquity, Aave, MakerDao, and Compound. We extract six features and compare the banks' levels of decentralization cross-sectionally. According to the analysis results, we find that: 1) MakerDao and Compound are more decentralized in the transactions than Aave and Liquity. 2) Although decentralized banking transactions are supposed to be decentralized, the data show that four banks have primary external transaction core addresses such as Huobi, Coinbase, and Binance, etc. We also discuss four design features that might affect network decentralization. Our research contributes to the literature at the interface of decentralized finance, financial technology (Fintech), and social network analysis and inspires future protocol designs to live up to the promise of decentralized finance for a truly peer-to-peer transaction network.

Network data collected from smart home devices and IoT devices.

Communities in developing countries often must cooperate to self-provide or co-produce local public goods. Many expect that community social networks facilitate this cooperation, but few studies directly observe real-life networks in these settings. We collect detailed social network data in rural Northern Ghana to explore how social positions and proximity to community leaders predict donations to a local public good. We then implement a field experiment manipulating participants’ opportunity to communicate and apply social pressure before donating. We find clear evidence that locations in community social networks predict cooperative behavior, but no evidence that communication improves coordination or cooperation, in contrast to common theoretical expectations and laboratory findings. Our results show that evolved, real-life social networks serve as a mapping of community members’ already-engrained behaviors, not only as an active technology through which social influence propagates to solve collective action problems.

The Global Urban Network (GUN) dataset provides pre-computed node and edge attribute features for various cities. Each layer is available in .geojson format and can easily be converted into NetworkX, igraph, PyG, and DGL graph formats.

For node attributes, we adopt a uniform Euclidean approach, as it provides a consistent, straightforward, and extensible basis for integrating heterogeneous data sources across different network locations. Accordingly, we construct 100 metres euclidean buffers for each network node and compute the spatial intersection with spatial targets (e.g., street view imagery points, points of interest, and building footprints). To ensure spatial consistency and accurate distance computation, we project spatial entities into local coordinate reference systems (CRS). Users can employ the Urbanity package to generate Euclidean buffers of arbitrary distance.

For edge attributes, we adopt a two-step approach: 1) compute the distance between each spatial point of interest and its proximate edges in the network, and 2) assign entities to the corresponding edge with lowest distance. To account for remote edges (e.g., peripheral routes that are not located close to any amenities), we specify a distance threshold of 50 metres. For buildings, we compute the distance between building centroids and their respective network edge. Accordingly, we compute spatial indicators based on the set of elements assigned to each network edge.

We also release aggregated subzone statistics for each city. Similarly, users can employ the Urbanity package to generate aggregate statistics for any arbitrary geographic boundary.

The pathway representation consists of segments and intersection elements. A segment is a linear graphic element that represents a continuous physical travel path terminated by path end (dead end) or physical intersection with other travel paths. Segments have one street name, one address range and one set of segment characteristics. A segment may have none or multiple alias street names. Segment types included are Freeways, Highways, Streets, Alleys (named only), Railroads, Walkways, and Bike lanes. SNDSEG_PV is a linear feature class representing the SND Segment Feature, with attributes for Street name, Address Range, Alias Street name and segment Characteristics objects. Part of the Address Range and all of Street name objects are logically shared with the Discrete Address Point-Master Address File layer. Appropriate uses include: Cartography - Used to depict the City's transportation network location and connections, typically on smaller scaled maps or images where a single line representation is appropriate. Used to depict specific classifications of roadway use, also typically at smaller scales. Used to label transportation network feature names typically on larger scaled maps. Used to label address ranges with associated transportation network features typically on larger scaled maps. Geocode reference - Used as a source for derived reference data for address validation and theoretical address location Address Range data repository - This data store is the City's address range repository defining address ranges in association with transportation network features. Polygon boundary reference - Used to define various area boundaries is other feature classes where coincident with the transportation network. Does not contain polygon features. Address based extracts - Used to create flat-file extracts typically indexed by address with reference to business data typically associated with transportation network features. Thematic linear location reference - By providing unique, stable identifiers for each linear feature, thematic data is associated to specific transportation network features via these identifiers. Thematic intersection location reference - By providing unique, stable identifiers for each intersection feature, thematic data is associated to specific transportation network features via these identifiers. Network route tracing - Used as source for derived reference data used to determine point to point travel paths or determine optimal stop allocation along a travel path. Topological connections with segments - Used to provide a specific definition of location for each transportation network feature. Also provides a specific definition of connection between each transportation network feature. (defines where the streets are and the relationship between them ie. 4th Ave is west of 5th Ave and 4th Ave does intersect with Cherry St) Event location reference - Used as source for derived reference data used to locate event and linear referencing.Data source is TRANSPO.SNDSEG_PV.
