Hamdi Kavak
- Assistant Professor of Computational and Data Sciences
- Co-Director of the Center for Social Complexity
Dr. Kavak is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Computational and Data Sciences and Co-Director of the Center for Social Complexity at George Mason University (GMU). He holds a Ph.D. degree and a Master’s degree in Modeling and Simulation from Old Dominion University, and a B.Sc. degree in Computer Engineering from Karadeniz Technical University in Turkey.
His research contributes to the intersection of simulation modeling and data science by using data mining and machine learning techniques to uncover behavioral patterns from publicly available data. This fertile research area lends itself very well to the Computational Social Science (CSS) and Computational Sciences and Informatics (CSI) fields. Therefore, he advises and works with students from both CSS and CSI programs at GMU. Being a method-oriented person, he applies my research to many domains, particularly cybersecurity and urban science.
