re-#introduction
Hi Fediscience! I am an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (Honolulu). I got here starting from Physics training with many scientific detours into data-driven models, complex systems, nanomaterial self-assembly, human learning of complex networks, naval ships, and design problems.
I grew up in Belarus and have *opinions* on that region of the world. I've been on Fediverse since late 2022 when *something* happened to our previous cybersocial infrastructure, but the previous server I was on is sunsetting. Please come say hi and recommend cool people to follow here.
I have a blog with longer thoughts on science-adjacent topics.

We've got a new article out
*Angst M, Müller NN, Walker V. Automated extraction of discourse networks from large volumes of media data* (open access)
https://doi.org/10.1017/nws.2025.4
As part of our sustainability.discourses project, we developed an automated method to gather and track discourse networks around urban sustainable mobility, based on media data.
The article describes the approach in detail and reports an evaluation of the internal validity (do we measure what we ourselves think we measure) of the pipeline.
tl;dnr: Automating discourse network data gathering can work well to capture broader tendencies. In many cases, it is likely not worth investing in automating data gathering to understand discourse however.

Continued thread
And here's is a list of journals in my field(s) that don't suck, based on my (own, possibly evolving) criteria. I hope it grows over time, it's still pretty bleak.
https://marioangst.com/en/blog/posts/journals-list/
- #sustainability Science
- Policy Studies / Political science #polsci
- #networkscience
- #digitalization research
- #socsci methods
Please, if you know of other journals in those fields that don't suck, let me know. And if you are involved with one of the journals on these lists, thanks so much for your work, you rock. And if you need reviewing or anything I can help with, let me know.

#introduction Hi! I am Jan. I work as a methodologist/data scientist/scientific programmer at Statistics Netherlands, working among other things on #NetworkScience. I am the author of a bunch of #rstats packages.
In my spare time I like to programme, play #dnd and build stuff: electronics, dioramas, 3d-printing, book binding...
To my followers here: I am also on BlueSky and if you are there too you can easily find me by clicking here: https://manlius.bsky.social

🚨Job alert!🚨
Come join us at the Inverse Complexity Lab! @invcomplexity
We’re hiring a post-doctoral researcher to join our group at IT:U, Linz, Austria.
https://skewed.de/lab/call.html
Deadline is 30 Nov 2024.
We are looking for an early-stage or more advanced postdoctoral scholar who is interested in building on our ongoing projects, or developing their own research agenda related to inverse problems in network science, complex systems modeling, and/or connections to machine learning.
This position is not bound to a particular research project, and the successful applicant will enjoy intellectual independence and freedom to choose research topics.
We’re seeking applicants with a background in Physics, Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, or related fields, and with an interest in interdisciplinary research.
This position is guaranteed for 3 years. The gross salary range is € 66,532 to € 72,000 (indexed for inflation), depending on previous experience.
The employment conditions in Austria include completely free health care (also for family members), social security benefits, 25 days per year of paid vacations, flexible working hours, and possibility of home office.
In addition, IT:U will provide a KlimaTicket—a unified transport pass which gives free access to the entire transportation system in Austria, including trains and local public transport.
Location
IT:U is a brand new public university in Austria, which began operations with its first cohort of professors in 2024, and is devoted to interdisciplinary research. It is co-located with the Johannes Kepler Universität in Linz, at the Science Park campus.
Linz is the third largest city in Austria with a population of 200k, centrally located only 1h15m away from Vienna by train, and short connections to Germany, Italy, and other neighboring countries.

The recently disproven bunkbed conjecture is fascinating - very topical for nowaday's hype in #multilayer #higherorder #networkscience
Not very useful with the 10^(-4331) result, but interesting: https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.02545
Here a nice explainer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDU-oTiHnCs
arXiv.orgThe bunkbed conjecture is falseWe give an explicit counterexample to the Bunkbed Conjecture introduced by Kasteleyn in 1985. The counterexample is given by a planar graph on $7222$ vertices, and is built on the recent work of Hollom (2024).
