Principal Investigator
Christos Nicolaides
I am a physicist with strong interest in data analytics. My research focuses on advancing our fundamental understanding and predictive capabilities of human behavior in online and offline networks. Research in my group combines theory, simulations and randomized experiments that elucidate fundamental aspects of human behavior in the digital age.
Postdoctoral Associates
Julia Kampani
I am a social scientist, specializing in social media marketing and word-of-mouth. My research focuses on how electronic word-of-mouth is generated and spreads as a result of digital advertising. Using Natural Language Processing and Network Text Analysis on millions of online reviews, my current research explores audience consensus on movie trailers.
PhD Students
George Ioannou
I am a computer scientist with experience in data science, big data analytics and machine learning.
