Eytan Bakshy
I recently completed my Ph.D. in Information at the University of Michigan under the guidance of Lada Adamic. I do research on social influence and information diffusion in networks. My current research uses large-scale randomized field experiments to learn about how social networks affect the spread of information.
Here is a selected list of my recent publications:
- The Role of Social Networks in Information Diffusion. Eytan Bakshy, Itamar Rosenn, Cameron A. Marlow, Lada A. Adamic. WWW 2012.
- Center of Attention: How Facebook Users Allocate Attention across Friends. Lars Backstrom, Eytan Bakshy, Jon Kleinberg, Thomas M. Lento, Itamar Rosenn. ICWSM 2011.
