About

I am an Assistant Professor (Senior Lecturer) at the Institute for Applied AI Research in the Faculty of Computer and Information Science (CIS) at Ben Gurion University where I'm heading the NLP and Social dynamics lab (NAS-LAB). I'm also serving as the director of the newly founded interdisciplinary Center for the Study of Digital Politics and Strategy (DPS@BGU) My research mainly involves modeling and analysis of Social Network Dynamics based on various social signals ranging from language use to patterns of online activity. I use Random Graphs, Complex Networks Analysis, Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing in the context of social interaction. I'm interested in large scale-data driven modeling of the processes in which language is shaping and shaped-by social dynamics. In particular, I'm interested in modeling social coordination, influence and contagion in social networks and in the political domain.
