Reflective Centralities in Two Mode Data
Generalized similarities
Two-mode networks
Reflections
Complexity
In a 2018 piece published in Poetics I adapted an approach to computing “reflective centralities” in two-mode data developed by Hidalgo & Hausmann (2009)—hereafter HH—to generalize basic formal notions in the study of cultural taste. Namely, “omnivorousness” on the side of people and “popularity” on the side of genres. The…
Implementation of Kovacs’s Generalized Model of Relational Similarity for R
Generalized similarities

In an insightful, and somewhat overlooked paper published in Social Networks, Kovacs (2010) introduced a generalized relational similarity measure based on iterated correlations, applicable to two-mode and one-mode network data. This post provides a brief description of Kovacs’s approach, and introduces an…
