Abstract : One of the challenges of social network analysis (SNA) is to understand and exploit on-line social interactions. Research in Semantic Web has provided models to leverage the richness of these interactions that we use to represent these social networks. Classical social network analysis methods have been applied to these semantic representations without fully exploiting their rich expressiveness.
Leveraging social data with semantics
In this paper we give models and algorithms to describe and analyze the collaboration among authors of Wikipedia from a network analytical perspective. The edit network encodes who interacts how with whom when editing an article; it significantly extends previous network models that code author communities in Wikipedia. Several characteristics summarizing some aspects of the organization process and allowing the analyst to identify certain types of authors can be obtained from the edit network. Moreover, we propose several indicators characterizing the global network structure and methods to visualize edit networks.
