CSH’s team leader Fariba Karimi will give an invited talk at the satellite workshop “WiNS @ Networks2021” which takes place from June 30 to July 1 as part of the Networks 2021 conference.

 

Time: 10:15–11:00 am EST

 

Abstract:

 

Does homophily help or hinder minorities’ visibility and position?

How do minorities mix with majorities in online and face-to-face networks, and what societal and algorithmic consequences do these mixing patterns have on their visibility?

How are minorities perceived in society?

What strategies minorities should take to alleviate their visibility in social networks?

 

These are the questions that I plan to address in this talk drawn from my recent and ongoing research.
