Popis: Understanding the ways in which academic researchers collaborate in STEM fields helps us understand not only how scientific work is conducted, but also allows us to examine equity in scientific collaborations. We present our work on constructing, exploring and visualizing a collaboration network of co-authorship in computing and other fields to better understand collaboration trends and geospatial relationships between collaborators. We examine these networks with a focus on variance and similarities between subnetworks generated from a seed set of inferred gender and a seed set of inferred race and ethnicity of faculty members. Results related to variance in clustering coefficients and average degree are presented.
