Vizster: visualizing online social networks (2005, background): “Linton Freeman documents the history of social network visualization within sociological research, providing examples of the ways in which spatial position, color, size, and shape can all be used to encode information [8].”
Social network analysis: A methodological introduction (2008, background): “…place vertices on a series of circular shells based on some specified criterion (e.g. centrality scores); although used in network analysis since before the dawn of computer-aided display (Freeman, 2000), they are now used infrequently due to their poor applicability to large and/or dense networks.”
Mining communities and their relationships in blogs: A study of online hate groups (2007, methodology): “MDS is the most commonly used method for social network visualization ( Freeman , 2000 ) .”
Gender differences in social network development via mobile phone text messages: A longitudinal study (2005, background): “Such social network imagery has provided researchers with new insights into network structures, and helped them to communicate those insights (Freeman, 2000).”
Kolb's experiential learning model: critique from a modelling perspective (2010, background): “Graphic models depicting linked activities are variously known as node link, point line, entity relationship, concept relationship or activity event diagrams; and activity or flow charts (Freeman 2003; Harel 1995; Ware 2000).”
DropEdge: Towards Deep Graph Convolutional Networks on Node Classification (2019, background): “…as well as its neighborhoods, have boosted the state-of-the-arts for a variety of tasks on graphs, such as node classification (Bhagat et al., 2011; Zhang et al., 2018), social recommendation (Freeman, 2000; Perozzi et al., 2014), and link prediction (Liben-Nowell & Kleinberg, 2007) to name some.”
Visualizing the Signatures of Social Roles in Online Discussion Groups (2007, methodology): “Drawing on research on social networks (Nadel 1964; Burt 1992, Faust and Skvoretz 2002, Freeman 2000), computer mediated communication (Turner et al 2005; Donath 1999) and data mining (Cortes and Pregibon 2002), we develop this analysis in two stages: developing insight into signatures and testing…”
Visualizing Personal Networks: Working with Participant-aided Sociograms (2007, background): “Interestingly, these real-time technologies bear a striking resemblance to the “target sociograms” produced in the lab by Mary Northway and colleagues as early as 1940 (Northway 1952; Freeman 2000).”
