I liked this article because the author wrote it like a class lecture or tutorial. He continued along a plot line trying to understand Paul Revere’s involvement in the many organizations within Boston. Using data analysis he picked his way through the multiple people and parties to find how Revere connects to many different organizations around Boston and signifies his ability have a lot of knowledge about the city. Highlighted by his famous “midnight ride,” this shows how he had the possible connections to understand such an event. A classmate noted “that the correlations and conclusions drawn from network analysis are only helpful in relation to prior knowledge or a data point that acts as a point of contention.” I would agree with this statement because there is a relative amount of bias within network analysis and without a data point of contention, there needs to be an amount of prior knowledge in order to lack bias in the network analysis.
