معرفی
Pasquale De Meo is a Professor at the Department of Computer Engineering, Modeling, Electronics and Systems at Mediterranea University of Reggio Calabria, Italy. With over 178 publications spanning from 2003 to 2025, he has established himself as a leading researcher in social network analysis, trust modeling, and complex systems. His work frequently appears in top-tier journals including IEEE Transactions, Expert Systems with Applications, and Knowledge-Based Systems.
De Meo's research focuses on social network analysis, trust modeling, criminal network analysis (particularly Sicilian Mafia operations), graph theory, and machine learning applications to networks. His work combines theoretical network science with practical applications in security, recommendation systems, and data mining. He has pioneered approaches for identifying key nodes in criminal networks, developing trust prediction models, and creating robust community detection algorithms.
His recent publications (2023-2025) demonstrate a strong trend toward integrating quantum-inspired methods with traditional network analysis, developing advanced recommendation systems that address cold-start problems, and applying deep learning techniques to complex network structures. His work bridges theoretical computer science with practical security applications, particularly in fraud detection and criminal network disruption.
De Meo has collaborated extensively with researchers including Giacomo Fiumara (61 papers), Domenico Ursino (57 papers), Giovanni Quattrone (40 papers), and Emilio Ferrara (37 papers), forming a productive research network focused on complex systems and network science.
