We introduce a semiparametric latent space model for analyzing longitudinal network data. The model consists of a static latent space component and a time-varying node-specific baseline component. We develop a semiparametric efficient score equation for the latent space parameter by adjusting for the baseline nuisance component. Estimation is accomplished through a one-step update estimator and an appropriately penalized maximum likelihood estimator. We derive oracle error bounds for the two estimators and address identifiability concerns from a quotient manifold perspective. Our approach is demonstrated using the New York Citi Bike Dataset.
