Analysis of sparse animal social networks

2024-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Low-density social networks can be common in animal societies, even among species generally considered to be highly social. Social network analysis is commonly used to analyse animal societal structure, but edge weight (strength of association between two individuals) estimation methods designed for dense networks can produce biased measures when applied to low-density networks. Frequentist methods suffer when dat...
