Multilayer network data

aucs

Layers: 5; Actors: 61; Edges: 620.
Multi-actor types: N; Multi-edge types: Y; Attributes: Y (categorical)
Description: These anonymized data, described by Rossi and Magnani (2015), were collected at a University research department and include 5 online and offline layers. The population of the study consists of 61 employees (out of the total number of 142) who decided to join the survey, including professors, postdoctoral researchers, PhD students and administration staff. The role and anonymized research group of each actor is also specified as an attribute.

ff-tw

Layers: 2; Actors: 155804; Edges: 13657550.
Multi-actor types: N; Multi-edge types: Y; Attributes: N
Description: This anonymized dataset has been obtained starting from Friendfeed, a social media aggregator (Magnani and Rossi, 2011). In this system while users can directly post messages and comment on other messages much like in Facebook and other similar OSNs, they can also register their accounts on other systems. The original data acquisition consists of 322 967 users who registered at least one service outside Friendfeed, with a total number of 1 587 273 services. From these, two multilayer networks were retrieved, one with users who registered exactly one Twitter account and whose Twitter account was associated to exactly one Friendfeed account (ff-tw) and one smaller dataset with an additional YouTube layer (ff-tw-yt).

friendfeed

Layers: 3; Actors: 510896; Edges: 20330701.
Multi-actor types: N; Multi-edge types: Y; Attributes: Y (numeric)
Description: This large anonymized dataset contains public interactions among users of Friendfeed collected over two months. Commenting, liking and following constitute the three layers, defining a contact and interaction multilayer social network. The number of interactions (comments and likes) is specified as an edge attribute.

friendfeed-ita

Layers: 3; Actors: 21006; Edges: 573600.
Multi-actor types: N; Multi-edge types: Y; Attributes: Y (numeric)
Description: This anonymized dataset contains public interactions among users of Friendfeed collected over two months. Commenting, liking and following constitute the three layers, defining a contact and interaction multilayer social network. The number of interactions (comments and likes) is specified as an edge attribute. It is a subset of the friendfeed dataset, only keeping information about italian users, marked as italian using a language recognition software applied to user posts.

dblp-ppc

Layers: 3; Actors: 108408; Edges: 222510.
Multi-actor types: Y; Multi-edge types: ; Attributes: Y (mixed)
Description: This tripartite dataset has be obtained from the DBLP repository. The layers correspond to people, papers and conferences. Title and year of paper, as well as conference classification, are also indicated as attributes. A selection of major conferences in databases, data mining, information retrieval and AI have been included.
