Description
The rapid growth in large scale online data availability and the advancement of computational techniques have transformed the quantitative approach to social sciences. In this talk, I will explore how leveraging the Habrok cluster has empowered us to tackle complex sociological questions that were previously challenging due to methodological bottlenecks. Highlighting specific cases, such as imputing missing network data and employing large-scale NLP on over millions social media comments, I will illustrate how computational capabilities are becoming vital for analytical sociological research.
