_DISENTANGLING INTERACTIONS IN ONLINE SOCIAL SYSTEMS USING MULTIPLEX
NETWORKS_ 

ABSTRACT Nowadays, millions of people interact on a daily basis on
online social media like Facebook and Twitter, where they share and
discuss information about a wide variety of topics. However, how
information spreads among individuals strongly depends on several
factors, being the underlying social structure and the different types
of social interactions the most crucial ones.
Generally, researchers tend to aggregate or disregard some information
to reduce the complexity of the data and of their models. Here we will
show that this approach is often not suitable to represent and analyze
social systems. In fact, we will show that even the most basic network
descriptors, such as nodes' centrality and their mesoscale organization
in groups or communities, can be very misleading if the underlying
network model is not appropriate.
We will discuss the most recent advances about multiplex analysis and
modeling of empirical social systems (such as Twitter), from their
complex network representation to their dynamics during exceptional
events.
