New paper published!

Ever wondered how some seemingly well-functioning political systems can suddenly switch to a completely different behaviour?
Ever thought about the effect that the attention span of people towards news has on this?
Ever felt that the impact of indifferent people on the stability of the system may be stronger than that of committed persons?
Good! Here, we make a mathematical model that shows exactly this.

@benroyce I think you will find the last three paragraphs of the conclusions particularly interesting.

A four-panel figure. The top-left panel shows how a hysteresis cycle shrinks and eventually disappears as a parameter is changed. The other three panels show a phase diagram with three different phases, which are labeled "LP phase", "HP phase" and "Bistable phase", with two lines that separate them. The lines meet at a critical point, where they annihilate.

✨Meet Cytoscape: Open Source Software for Visualizing Complex Networks

I share an article I wrote on Medium about this tool:

My student did a Science!

One week from now, Denisa Arsene will present the her BSc thesis research at the 14th International Conference on Complex Networks and their Applications, held in Binghamton, New York, USA!

More details and preprint: https://latower.github.io/posts/2025/11/sana/

I'm super proud of her, and I'm super happy that I got to do this project with her and two of my former colleagues from Leiden University: Rachel de Jong and Frank Takes!

Poster presenting the highlights of the research in the corresponding paper. Eyecatcher is a big vertical orange banner with the text: 'How to share research-relevant social netowrk data, while preserving privacy? SANA Simulated Annealing for Network Anonymization. Minimal changes. Maximal privacy. Up to 18 times more anonymized nodes. Same speed. Same data utility. It features diagrams that illustrate a type of attack model that is based on characteristics of the direct neighbourhood of nodes. It also has an example plot of how a simulated annealing approach converges to a particular level of anonymity. It then has a bunch of plots that give more details on running time, level of anonymization, and how SANA and the other algorithms perform in terms of data utility. The takeaways are that SANA provides fast and better anonymization and that it scales better with input size than the other algorithms studied here. Next challenges are to tackle multi-objective anonymity and utiliyt, and dynamic (real-time) anonymization.

Glad to present our work at INTROMET 2025 & engage in insightful discussions with fellow researchers. Congrats Shri Vignesh for the best poster award on "Role of turbulence in droplet size growth during the onset of precipitation in warm clouds".

The Roman road network was one of the greatest feats of ancient engineering, with over 400,000 km (yes!) of roads connecting an empire. Here I fused historical data with modern cities to show how Roman infrastructure still echoes in today’s Europe. #ComplexSystems #ComplexNetworks #History 🧪

I am looking for #scientific #literature on temporal behaviors of single (i.e., temporarily unconnected or minimally connected) #nodes in #dynamicNetworks (my application is face-to-face interactions). I end up finding literature on modeling of influencial nodes and #subgraphs -- I am kinda looking for the opposite. And the psychology literature seems to use networks to predict #loneliness.

Anyone with a golden tip on how/where I can find this?
