Affiliation Network of Early American-Returned Students (Chinese)

The network is a two-mode, weighted network linking individuals with the organizations to which they were affiliated in the course of their lives, including the educational institutions in which they studied in China, the United States, and other countries; the public or private organizations in which they were employed; as well as their memberships in clubs and associations. The names of organizations were retrieved automatically from the Chinese biographies using named entity recognition (SpaCy model), then manually cleaned, classified, and validated by the author. This network comprises 401 unique individuals and 1,344 unique institutions, for a total of 2,883 affiliations (ties). Red square nodes represent individuals, green circle nodes represent institutions.
