Happy New Year to everyone :) We have great news at the beginning of 2026, our paper on the Multilayer artificial benchmark for community detection (mABCD) has just been published in Expert Systems with Applications

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year :)

We encourage you to participate in 21st Workshop on Modelling and Mining Networks (WAW 2026) in Toronto. One of the keynote speakers will be Przemek Kazienko from our department. See details at math.torontomu.ca/waw2026/

Additional benefit is FIFA2026 World Cup happening during the conference ;)

Our paper, "Applicability of the Minimal Dominating Set for Influence Maximization in Multilayer Networks," has just been published.

Key findings
- MDS can improve influence spread
- proposed local-improvement algorithm helps reduce dominating set size
- effectiveness varies by network structure

Michał and Mateusz are attending ECAI 2025 in Bologna, where they will present their paper, "Identifying Super Spreaders in Multilayer Networks." :)

Today, we had a pleasure to host Prof. Maksim Kitsak from TU Delft www.tudelft.nl/en/staff/m.a... who gave a talk about finding shortest and nearly shortest path nodes in large substantially incomplete networks by hyperbolic mapping. :)

This week we have hosted prof Kaska Musial-Gabrys from the UTS (profiles.uts.edu.au/katarzyna.mu...). We have been working on applying control theory and minimal dominating sets to create a better seed set for influence maximization. More about that soon (here and at multispread.pwr.edu.pl/) ;)

Our paper "Unveiling Bias in Opinion Models: The Role of Network Structure vs. Demographic Attributes" is being presented during the poster session at #IC2S22025, stand 37.

If you missed it or missed us, you can check the paper at drive.google.com/drive/folder...

This week we are in Norrköping for the International Conference on Computational Social Science. See you there. #ic2s2
