Overview

About the project

We recently developed numerical and computational techniques to use algorithmic information theory (AIT) to the analysis of networks.

Subprojects include

  • Develop python packages for AIT analysis of large-scalenetworks      
  • Develop new AIT network embedding algorithms
  • Analyze Convolutional Networks a representational learning using AIT     
  • Quantify and benchmark AIT network analysis with other techniques   
  • Large-scale computation of AIT networks using a supercomputer(Shaheen) Newand improved numerical approximation of algorithmic complexity using massive computations of Turing Machines on Shaheen(supercomputer)
