A Counting Process View of Relational Event Models: Practical Asymptotics

Cornelius Fritz, Alexander Fuchs-Kreiss

Relational Event Models (REMs) provide a rigorous framework for analyzing dyadic interactions observed in continuous time, capturing history-dependent dynamics such as triadic clos…

Scalable Signed Exponential Random Graph Models under Local Dependence

Marc Schalberger, Cornelius Fritz

Traditional network analysis focuses on binary edges, while real-world relationships are more nuanced, encompassing cooperation, neutrality, and conflict. The rise of negative edge…

Scalable Durational Event Models: Application to Physical and Digital Interactions

Cornelius Fritz, Riccardo Rastelli, Michael Fop +1

Durable interactions are increasingly observed in social network analysis with precise timestamps. Phone and video calls, for instance, are events to which a specific duration can…

Exponential Random Graph Models for Dynamic Signed Networks: An Application to International Relations

Cornelius Fritz, Marius Mehrl, Paul W. Thurner +1

Substantive research in the Social Sciences regularly investigates signed networks, where edges between actors are either positive or negative. For instance, schoolchildren can be…

Separable and Semiparametric Network-based Counting Processes applied to the International Combat Aircraft Trades

Cornelius Fritz, Paul W. Thurner, Göran Kauermann

We propose a novel tie-oriented model for longitudinal event network data. The generating mechanism is assumed to be a multivariate Poisson process that governs the onset and repet…
