Exponential Families

Some New Models for Social Networks

This is the Keynote Address at the Australian Social Network Analysis Conference 2023. In it I discuss classes of exponential-family models that extend the range and realism of traditional classes.

Modeling of Networked Populations with Exponential-Family Random Network Models when data is Sampled or Missing

In this talk we discuss network modeling with a novel exponential-family class of models when the network in only partially observed.

Modeling of networked populations when data is sampled or missing

We discuss network modeling with a novel exponential-family class of models when the network has some stochastic covariates and is only partially observed.

Local Dependence in Random Graph Models: Characterisation, Properties, and Statistical Inference

Dependent phenomena, such as relational, spatial and temporal phenomena, tend to be characterized by local dependence in the sense that units which are close in a well-defined sense are dependent. In contrast with spatial and temporal phenomena, …
