Network Properties • Global Network Properties (Chapter 3 of the course textbook “Analysis of Biological Networks” by Junker and Schreiber) • Degree distribution • Clustering coefficient and spectrum • Average diameter • Centralities
2) Clustering Coefficient and Spectrum • Cv – Clustering coefficient of node v • CA= 1/1 = 1 • CB = 1/3 = 0.33 • CC = 0 • CD = 2/10 = 0.2 • … • C = Avg. clust. coefficient of the whole network • = avg {Cv over all nodes v of G} • C(k) – Avg. clust. coefficient of all nodes • of degree k • E.g.: C(2) = (CA + CC)/2 = (1+0)/2 = 0.5 • => Clustering spectrum • E.g. • (not for G) G
3) Average Diameter u • Distance between a pair of nodes u and v: • Du,v = min {length of all paths between u and v} • = min {3,4,3,2} = 2 = dist(u,v) • Average diameter of the whole network: • D = avg {Du,v for all pairs of nodes {u,v} in G} • Spectrum of the shortest path lengths G v E.g. (not for G)
Network Properties 2. Local Network Properties (Chapter 5 of the course textbook “Analysis of Biological Networks” by Junker and Schreiber) • Network motifs • Graphlets: 2.1) Relative Graphlet Frequence Distance between 2 networks 2.2) Graphlet Degree Distribution Agreement between 2 networks
1) Network motifs (Uri Alon’s group, ’02-’04) • Small subgraphs that are overrepresented in a network when compared to randomized networks • Network motifs: • Reflect the underlying evolutionary processes that generated the network • Carry functional information • Define superfamilies of networks - Zi is statistical significance of subgraph i, SPi is a vector of numbers in 0-1 • But: • Functionally important but not statistically significant patterns could be missed • The choice of the appropriate null model is crucial, especially across “families”

Later we will see how to use this and other techniques to link network structure with biological function.
Generalize Degree Distribution of a network • The degree distribution measures: • the number of nodes “touching” k edges for each value of k. N. Przulj, “Biological Network Comparison Using Graphlet Degree Distribution,” Bioinformatics, vol. 23, pg. e177-e183, 2007.

/ sqrt(2) ( to make it between 0 and 1) This is called Graphlet Degree Distribution (GDD) Agreement netween networks G and H.
