معرفی
Dane Taylor is an Assistant Professor at the University of Wyoming's School of Computing and Department of Mathematics and Statistics, with an adjunct appointment in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. He joined UW in 2023 after serving as assistant professor at University at Buffalo (2017-2023). His research focuses on network science, complex systems, and data science methodologies.
Education includes:
- Ph.D. Applied Mathematics, University of Colorado Boulder (2013)
- B.S. Electrical Engineering (bioengineering), University of Wyoming (2008)
- B.S. Physics, University of Wyoming (2008)
Research interests span: network-based modeling, spectral theory, random matrix theory, neurocomputation, and self-organization in complex systems. His work develops mathematical frameworks for temporal/multilayer networks and simplicial complexes.
Publication trends show consistent focus on network dynamics, topological data analysis, and applications in neuroscience, epidemiology, and social systems. Recent work explores machine learning integration with network theory and pandemic-related human mobility patterns.
