Multilayer networks, in particular multilayer social networks, where
users belong to and interact on different networks at the same time,
are an active research area in social network analysis, computer
science, and physics. These networks have traditionally been studied
within these separate research communities, leading to the development
of several independent models and methods to deal with the same set of
problems. This book unifies and consolidates existing practical and
theoretical knowledge on multilayer networks including data collection
and analysis, modeling, and mining of multilayer social network
systems, the evolution of interconnected social networks, and dynamic
processes such as information spreading. A single real dataset is used
to illustrate the concepts presented throughout the book,
demonstrating both the practical utility and the potential
shortcomings of the various methods. Researchers from all areas of
network analysis will learn new aspects and future directions of this
emerging field.
