[HTML][HTML] Nestedness in complex networks: observation, emergence, and implications

MS Mariani, ZM Ren, J Bascompte, CJ Tessone - Physics Reports, 2019 - Elsevier
The observed architecture of ecological and socio-economic networks differssignificantly
from that of random networks. From a network science standpoint, non-random structural …

Randomized reference models for temporal networks

L Gauvin, M Génois, M Karsai, M Kivelä, T Takaguchi… - Siam Review, 2022 - SIAM
Many dynamical systems can be successfully analyzed by representing them as networks.
Empirically measured networks and dynamic processes that take place in these situations …

[HTML][HTML] What is the entropy of a social organization?

C Zingg, G Casiraghi, G Vaccario, F Schweitzer - Entropy, 2019 - mdpi.com
We quantify a social organization's potentiality, that is, its ability to attain different
configurations. The organization is represented as a network in which nodes correspond to …

Configuration models as an urn problem

G Casiraghi, V Nanumyan - Scientific reports, 2021 - nature.com
A fundamental issue of network data science is the ability to discern observed features that
can be expected at random from those beyond such expectations. Configuration models …

The block-constrained configuration model

G Casiraghi - Applied Network Science, 2019 - Springer
We provide a novel family of generative block-models for random graphs that naturally
incorporates degree distributions: the block-constrained configuration model. Block …

Multiplex Network Regression: How do relations drive interactions?

G Casiraghi - arxiv preprint arxiv:1702.02048, 2017 - arxiv.org
We introduce a statistical regression model to investigate the impact of dyadic relations on
complex networks generated from observed repeated interactions. It is based on …

CompTrails: comparing hypotheses across behavioral networks

T Koopmann, M Becker, F Lemmerich… - Data Mining and …, 2024 - Springer
Abstract The term Behavioral Networks describes networks that contain relational
information on human behavior. This ranges from social networks that contain friendships or …

Quantifying triadic closure in multi-edge social networks

L Brandenberger, G Casiraghi, V Nanumyan… - Proceedings of the …, 2019 - dl.acm.org
In social networks, edges often form closed triangles or triads. Standard approaches to
measuring triadic closure, however, fail for multi-edge networks, because they do not …

Comparing online and offline political support

L Brandenberger, G Casiraghi, G Andres… - Swiss Political …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Do politicians carry on their interpersonal relations online? We examine how online political
support compares to offline support. We overlay two data sets on political support among …

Mining explainable local and global subgraph patterns with surprising densities

J Deng, B Kang, J Lijffijt, T De Bie - Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, 2021 - Springer
The connectivity structure of graphs is typically related to the attributes of the vertices. In
social networks for example, the probability of a friendship between any pair of people …
