Talk recording
Recent research has highlighted limitations of studying complex systems with time-varying topologies from the perspective of static, time-aggregated networks. Non-Markovian characteristics resulting from the specific ordering of interactions in temporal networks were identified as one important mechanism that alters causality and affects dynamical processes. So far, an analytical explanation for this phenomenon and for the significant variations observed across different systems is missing.
About the speaker
Ingo Scholtes is a senior researcher at the Chair of Systems Design at ETH Zürich. Following studies in computer science and mathematics, he completed his doctorate studies in the Systems Software and Distributed Systems group at the University of Trier in 2011. He was involved in the Large Hadron Collider experiment at CERN, designing and implementing a Peer-to-Peer-based framework for large-scale data distribution which is since being used to monitor particle collision data from the ATLAS detector. Inspired by this experience, he turned his attention to the modeling and analysis of complex networked systems. His latest research addresses applications of network science in the analysis of data from socio-technical systems, but also from biology and sociology. In a theoretical line of research he further studies new methods in the analysis of time-stamped network data. At ETH Zürich he developed a course on network science which bridges the curricula of engineering and natural sciences.
