Tiivistelmä	Bayesian Network Diffusion Analysis applies Bayesian probabilistic inference to the study of how information, diseases, behaviors, or innovations propagate through a network. By placing priors over diffusion parameters and updating them with observed cascade data, it quantifies transmission rates, identifies influential spreaders, reconstructs latent propagation pathways, and provides full uncertainty estimates — all within a principled statistical framework.	Social Network Analysis (SNA) is a structural method that maps and measures relationships and flows between people, groups, organizations, or other entities modeled as nodes connected by ties (edges). Rather than focusing on individual attributes, SNA reveals how the pattern of connections shapes behavior, influence, information flow, and outcomes within a system.
