Stanford Network Analysis Project

The Stanford Network Analysis Project (SNAP) is a research initiative at Stanford University focused on studying large-scale networks, such as social media, transportation, and communication systems. It develops algorithms and tools to analyze how nodes (like people or websites) connect and interact, helping us understand patterns, influence, and growth within complex networks. SNAP's goal is to advance knowledge in network science, enabling applications like improving social media algorithms, detecting misinformation, or optimizing networks for efficiency and resilience.
