Description
This course is a rapid introduction to the statistical modeling of social, biological and economical networks. Emphasis will be on statistical methodology and subject-matter-agnostic models, rather than on the specifics of different application areas. No prior experience with networks is expected, but familiarity with statistical modeling is essential.
