Gender Differences in Real-Home Sleep of Young and Older Couples
(Southwest Journal of Pulmonary and Critical Care, 2015-05-19)Objectives: To understand gender differences in sleep quality, architecture and duration of young healthy couples in comparison to older couples in their natural sleep environment. Design: Sleep was monitored in a ... -
Globalization and the shifting centers of gravity of world's human dynamics: Implications for sustainability
(Journal of Cleaner Production, 2019-12-01)World's human dynamics can be parameterized with metrics that explain the current model of economic growth and its sustainability. Changes in the world's human dynamics are crucial for understanding the current state of ... -

How Physical Proximity Shapes Complex Social Networks
(Scientific Reports, 2018-12-07)Social interactions among humans create complex networks and – despite a recent increase of online communication – the interactions mediated through physical proximity remain a fundamental way for people to connect. A ... -
Is social capital associated with synchronization in human communication? An analysis of Italian call records and measures of civic engagement
(EPJ Data Science, 2018-07-17)Social capital has been studied in economics, sociology and political science as one of the key elements that promote the development of modern societies. It can be defined as the source of capital that facilitates cooperation ... -

Large Scale Infrastructure Design Using Evolving Networks
(2020-06-13)This paper discusses the potential use of graph-theoretic framework in the context of large scale infrastructure design and management. Named as the Interdependent Network Flow with Induced Internal Transformation (INFINIT) ... -
Looking for a better future: modeling migrant mobility
(Applied Network Science, 2020-09-22)Massive migrations have become increasingly prevalent over the last decades. A recent example is the Venezuelan migration crisis across South America, which particularly affects neighboring countries like Colombia. Creating ... -
Mapping Time-Varying Accessibility and Territorial Cohesion With Time-Distorted Maps
(IEEE Access, 2019-03-27)Human societies have radically changed from the second half of the 20 th century. Urban areas are increasingly concentrating more people and economic activities. Connections between market economies in different regions ... -
Measuring the predictability of life outcomes with a scientific mass collaboration
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020-04-14)How predictable are life trajectories? We investigated this question with a scientific mass collaboration using the common task method; 160 teams built predictive models for six life outcomes using data from the Fragile ... -
Mobility patterns are associated with experienced income segregation in large US cities
(Nature Communications, 2021-07-30)Traditional understanding of urban income segregation is largely based on static coarse-grained residential patterns. However, these do not capture the income segregation experience implied by the rich social interactions ... -
Model Based System Design to Support Variability and Flexibility, and Early Bidding Phase of New Procurement
(2020-06-13)A generic design of a complex industrial system allows the reduction in engineering cost and time to market because of the ability to adapt a technical solution given a particular context. We present in this study a ... -
Modelling the impact of testing, contact tracing and household quarantine on second waves of COVID-19
(Nature Human Behaviour, 2020-08-05)While severe social-distancing measures have proven effective in slowing the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, second-wave scenarios are likely to emerge as restrictions are lifted. Here we integrate anonymized, ... -
Network Dynamics of a Financial Ecosystem
(Scientific Reports, 2020-03-12)Global financial crises have led to the understanding that classical econometric models are limited in comprehending financial markets in extreme conditions, partially since they disregarded complex interactions within the ... -
Optimizing targeted vaccination across cyber–physical networks: an empirically based mathematical simulation stud
(Journal of the Royal Society Interface, 2018-01-03)Targeted vaccination, whether to minimize the forward transmission of infectious diseases or their clinical impact, is one of the ‘holy grails’ of modern infectious disease outbreak response, yet it is difficult to achieve ... -
