    Master Thesis
    Modularity analysis of a health information platform from a network science perspective
    (Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2015) Aydın, Mehmet Nafiz; Aydın, Mehmet Nafiz
    As Barabási (2015) emphasizes that the very idea of communities goes back to the time people were born into communities and had to find their individuality. But today it is the other way around, that is, people are born individuals and have to find their communities. This research is aimed to better understand modularity measures for a health information platform. Such platform is an exemplary of its many kinds that are characterized as interactive, web-based information exchange platforms. These platforms draw attentions of academics due to its underlying complex systems behavior in various domains such as computer science, management science, sociology, and management information systems (MIS). We adopt a perspective of an emerging interdisciplinary field called network science that enables us to analyze modularity of a health information platform. The whole connection network normally has 2143 nodes and 5706 edges. In this research, since the modularity is examined, it is vague to integrate the sprinkled nodes over the giant component. Thus and so, the only giant component having 1652 nodes and 5146 edges is studied. This analysis is based on the modularity maximization algorithm, which Gephi uses as default, by assigning two different resolution values for the same data set to try which resolution value gives better results.
