Bundled datasets

amorem ships the event logs and covariates below, each loadable with data(...). The tables and figures on this page are computed from them when the page is built. The data catalogue documents a wider collection, including datasets whose licences do not allow amorem to redistribute them.

congress_bills_118 holds hyperevents: each of its 16,213 bills has one sponsor and a set of cosponsors (mean 10.0, largest 331), from 2023-01-03 to 2025-01-03. Actor attributes come in classroom_actors, social_evolution_actors, copenhagen_actors, congress_members_118 and radoslaw_hierarchy.

What each log looks like

For each event log: the network of the actors in its busiest pairs, then when the 30 most active of them are active. The data catalogue adds a close-up of single events and the counting processes of the busiest pairs.

classroom_events

Network of the most active actors of classroom_events The 20 actors of the busiest pairs, out of 20; events between two of them are 100.0% of all events. Each actor’s three strongest ties are drawn (39 of 73 pairs that ever interacted): wider, darker lines carry more events, larger dots are more active actors, and colours are groups found by modularity (Louvain).

Activity of the most active actors of classroom_events over time Each row is one of the 20 most active actors of the network, coloured by its group there; a cell is darker the more events (with anyone) the actor took part in during that stretch of time. The grey bars on top count all 691 events.

social_evolution_calls

Network of the most active actors of social_evolution_calls The 54 actors of the busiest pairs, out of 54; events between two of them are 100.0% of all events. Each actor’s three strongest ties are drawn (61 of 64 pairs that ever interacted): wider, darker lines carry more events, larger dots are more active actors, and colours are groups found by modularity (Louvain).

Logs with highly concentrated activity are where count statistics carry sender and receiver activity rather than dyadic history; see Analyses of bundled event logs for a comparison with and without a sender frailty.

Global covariates

  • enso_nino34: tree-ring reconstruction of the winter Niño3.4 anomaly, 1301-2005 (see vignette("species-invasion")); oni: the instrumental Oceanic Niño Index since 1950.
  • daily_weather: daily temperature and precipitation at Boston (Social Evolution, 2008), Santa Ana (CollegeMsg, 2004), and Warsaw and Wroclaw (manufacturing email, 2010).
  • public_holidays: public holidays for the same countries and years.

They take one value at a time for every pair, so their effects are estimated with time-shifted sampling (sample_non_events(shift = "exponential")); the email case study does this with the clock.

dist_matrix holds distances between 56 US states and territories, used by the validation experiments.

Time conventions

Event times are days since the first event, except classroom_events (minutes since the start of the class), ucdp_dyads (year) and alien_invasions (years start and stop). Where the source gives clock time, attr(x, "unix_origin") holds the Unix time of time = 0:

format(as.POSIXct(attr(radoslaw_email, "unix_origin"), origin = "1970-01-01",
                  tz = "Europe/Warsaw"), usetz = TRUE)
## [1] "2010-01-02 17:40:10 CET"
format(as.POSIXct(attr(college_msg, "unix_origin"), origin = "1970-01-01",
                  tz = "America/Los_Angeles"), usetz = TRUE)
## [1] "2004-04-15 07:56:01 PDT"
