Social network graphs are node-link (vertex-edge; entity-relationship) diagrams that show relationships between people and groups. Open-source tools like NodeXL Basic (available on Microsoft’s CodePlex) enable the capture of network data from select social media platforms through third-party add-ons and social media APIs. From social groups, relational clusters are extracted with clustering algorithms which identify intensities of connections. Visually, structural relational data is conveyed with layout algorithms in two-dimensional space. Using these various layout options and built-in visual design features, it is possible to aesthetically “deform” the network graph data for visual effects. This presentation introduces novel datasets and novel data visualizations.

Network Graph Challenges
Challenge 1:
Can you spot the nodes and the links in the following network
graphs (particularly in the deformed ones)?
Challenge 2:
How many network graphs are in this slideshow?
(Of course, some are hidden.)

SETTING THE STAGE:
“NATURAL” FORMS of NETWORK GRAPHS
Part 1: Formations w/ alphanumeric labels to get a sense of what social network
graphs look like
Part 2: Formations w/o alphanumeric labels to get a sense of layout algorithms and
grouping algorithms
NETWORK GRAPH DEFORMATIONS
Part 3: Deformations to get a sense of what’s possible with the
data visualizations

Data worksheets: Edges, vertices, groups, group vertices, overall (summary) metrics, and additional worksheets depending on the social media data source All expressed in row data in related worksheets
Basic edge data: Dyadic followership, relational reciprocation, relationship type, dates (UTC) of the relationship, URLs, #hashtags, and others
Basic vertex data: Name, image URLs, in-degree, out-degree, betweenness centrality, closeness centrality, eigenvector centrality, PageRank, clustering coefficient, reciprocated vertex pair ratio, and others
Clustering: Group (cluster) partitioning by empirically observed low-dimension distance-based measures (which are variable)
Motifs: Mini-subgraphs that show dyadic, triadic, quadratic,…node relationships in the social network (as a general definition) In NodeXL, the “Group by Motif” visualization
shows three types of small-group node relationships: fan motifs (a central node as a connector to otherwise unconnected nodes), D-connector motifs (dyadic nodes connected by multiple intermediary nodes), and clique motifs (with interconnected nodes)

1. Extracting social network data from a social media platform (via third-party add-ons to NodeXL)
2. Data processing• Processing graph metrics
• Identifying sub-structures such as groups or clusters, motifs, or connected components (through clustering algorithms)
3. Creating graph visualizations in the graph pane with layout algorithms
4. Analyzing the data visualizations
5. Deforming the visualizations based on the NodeXL tools alone

data structures, clustering algorithms, and layout
algorithms account for a majority of the visual
differences and effects…
and the decorative elements in the visuals affect only a small

it’s the residua that enable some of the cooler visual
effects;
however, there are some “anchor points,” too, beyond
which changes cannot be made;
in experimentation, it’s easy to end up in a visually
irredeemable place, but the “reset all” buttons exist for a
reason

sometimes,
a glance at network graph metrics is sufficient to let you
know what visualization possibilities are available (with
enough experience);
sometimes,
a glance at network graph
metrics can be highly misleading about what
visualizations are possible

also, an early graph map of the data (without graph metrics,
without grouping) can also reveal a lot about the data’s
social groupness and connectivity;
the “hard fun” in this endeavor though is the pursuit of visual
surprise

…but first experiment very broadly to actually learn the tool and its behaviors (don’t lock in to some
“go to’s” simply because you know how those work)
…some data extractions take days, and processing some visualizations
from large datasets can take days (so schedule time on backup
computers)

engage with
the underlying data, and not

But why?
…focusing on the journey, not the destination …learning the tool, every last function and the
practical and theoretical limits …understanding how data and graph data
metrics relate to visualizations (and gaining a sense of how data visualizations are perceived and what they communicate)
…making the tool do things that its maker(s) did not intend (albeit in a friendly sense)
…enjoying graphs that look like signals but are actually just pleasant noise (with a smallamount of actual information)
…digital doodling and pretty for pretty’s sake
But why not?
…a cost in time
…a cost in computer processing
…alarming the makers of the tool with the network graph “hairballs”

… When deforming social network graphs, you’re
playing to the following:
the social media platform (and how people are using it at that particular slice-in-time)
the extracted social data (and serendipitous aspects of that data)
the software (NodeXL and APIs)
how people perceive visually and their tendency to see patterns
your innate need for play, and
your enjoyment at amusing others
The trick…and the secret
Huh, how did I get here?!
The trick is to remember your way in and your way out of the deformations (which ultimately means you learn the tool and its many functionalities and how to troubleshoot within the tool)
The secret is that the eye candy (deformed network graphs) is to motivate the learning and defuse learning frustrations (while learning network analysis and NodeXL) and to increase learning persistence

The presenter is using a version of NodeXL that is between the free and open-source NodeXL Basic (a limited version) and the function-added commercial NodeXL Pro… on Excel 2016. NodeXL stands for Network Overview,
Discovery and Exploration for Excel. This “template” add-on to Excel was formerly known as NetViz.
There is a server version available.
The NodeXL template / add-on is available on Microsoft’s CodePlex site.
The third-party add-ons to NodeXL enable access to social media application programming interfaces (APIs) and open-source structures like MediaWiki. Data captured include unstructured
(image), semi-structured (text), and structured data (numerical).

How to define relationship and depth of relationship Frequencies and types of interactions
Conveying relationships with shapes, lines, and placement in 2D space Emplace data objects with some
likelihood of covering the 2D space and with some balance (but not symmetry)
Using colors strategically and non-offensively (general neutrality for edges, color for vertices)
Uses shapes and shape sizes strategically and non-offensively
Require data limits to enable visualization in fixed physical space (2D and 3D)
Require alignment with human visual capabilities and visual sense-making (and understanding the limits of perception with dense data and visual occlusions)

All data visualizations are original and based on unique social media datasets. The data visualizations here are not from any prior presentation or publication. Sometimes, one dataset was used for
multiple data visualizations.
The social network platforms used here include Twitter (microblogging site), Wikipedia (MediaWiki understructure, a crowd-sourced online encyclopedia), and Flickr (video and image-sharing site).
The social network graph types include #hashtag networks, keyword search networks, user networks, related tags networks, and article-article networks.

The social networks are all directional single-mode graphs. The direction of relationships are
indicated.
The nodes represent one type of a thing instead of multiple types.
Clusters are created based on inter-relating around topics of shared interest, and such clusters are captured through unsupervised learning. Groups are not pre-labeled with any
classification but are just “Group 1,” “Group 2,” and such in descending order.
There are ways to cluster by vertex attribute, connected component, or other methods.
These included sociograms that… consist of 30 – 100,000+ nodes/vertices
each
contain 1 – 8,000+ groups (which vary based on which clustering algorithms are used).
consist of 1 - 1.5 - 2 degrees when degree is a definable parameter in the data extraction.

So social network graphs represent people’s relationships based on various types of relating; they may be understood at global network scale (most broad level)
as various mixes of subgroups and motifs
as (egos) (most granular level)
Relationships may be one-to-oneself (isolate, reflexive self-loop), one-to-one (dyadic), one-to-several, one-to-many, several-to-several, several-to-many, many-to-one, many-to-several, many-to-many Relationships cost, so people are selective
when they connect… There is a trust premium in every connection.
Relationships may benefit their members, so people are strategic and tactical when they connect…
Relationships are dynamic and changing over time, with varying levels of speed-of-change (especially on social media platforms).
In a social ecology, the interrelationships often determine power and capabilities; resource distribution;
information sharing 257

“Relating” online include the following: Undeclared transient (ad hoc)
relationships:
replying to, retweeting, commenting, mentioning, collaboration, co-funding, co-authorship, co-editing, co-tagging digital contents, and others
Declared formalized and announced relationships:
following, un-following, friending, unfriending, relational status updates, and others

General types of available data on social media include the following: Content data: text messages, audio,
photos, video, shared digital objects, and others
Trace data: who interacts with whom (which enables drawing of the social network graphs), when messages are shared, when accounts are created, when accounts are closed, and others
Metadata: locational information, “folk” tags linked to digital contents, auto-tags linked to digital contents, system information of those contacting social media platforms, and others

In general, people relate and connect around shared interests and similarity (homophily). Human similarity can be a predictor of long-
term relating and bonding.
Some relate around heterophily or interpersonal differences.
In terms of online fame, the power law applies—with a few garnering most of the followership and attention. Then the rest of the frequency curve involves
a long tail of those with few close friends.
Actual reciprocal relationships are not so common. The followed do not often follow-back.
On social media, people often pose (perform socially) and over-share for imagined audiences.
One-to-many virality does not truly exist. It’s often the bigger entities (governments,
corporations) that are the ones that push designed messages one-to-many that often create trending topics.
Social influence is concentrated at cores.
277
![Page 278: Formations & Deformations of Social Network Graphs](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042907/58ce97c51a28ab8c3b8b6b2b/html5/thumbnails/278.jpg)
Over time, there are predictable evolutionary patterns with online social networks. For one, “isolates” (singletons),
“whiskers,” and subgroups either meld with a larger connected component in an online community, or they simply disappear. In other words, nodes move to the core and connect with the social mass or move out of that particular network.
Mainline interests have to converge for people to continue participation in a community.
278
![Page 279: Formations & Deformations of Social Network Graphs](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042907/58ce97c51a28ab8c3b8b6b2b/html5/thumbnails/279.jpg)
Virtual relationships are ephemeral, with varying degrees of friending and unfriending. Average length of FB relationships are said
to be about three years.
People looking for romance are often entranced by ‘bots, who stand in for actual people. People may be “catfished” into “relationships” by automata (scripts). Also, a majority of people who encounter
Twitter ‘bots are unable to tell that they are not people and will accept them as friends (and give them access to their real social networks).
Predictive analytics have been applied to the length of people’s romantic relationships with fairly high accuracy. The time period length of initial
interactivity is one indicator of overall relationship longevity.

Individually, people can be fairly accurately profiled psychologically by what they post online. People’s social circles may be used to
profile the individual even if he / she does not have a direct online presence.
There are geographical effects on virtual connectivity. The physical real has effects on the virtual. Likewise, language and culture have
effects on social media usage.
The cyber-physical confluence exists.
People’s geolocational check-ins have been used to profile individuals as to their lifestyles and behaviors because people tend towards habitual “patterns of life” and times/places where they are comfortable. With a few data points, people’s
likelihood of being in a particular place at a certain time may be projected with fairly high accuracy into the future (out about a little over a year).
