Networks, Complexity and Economic Development Class 5: Network Dynamics
Classes 5-7 APPLICATIONS (Oct 21st, Nov 18 th, Nov 25 th ) 4:10pm– 5:30 pm
Community Finding Clique Percolation Methods Betweenness, Spectral Partition Methods
So far… We studied some basic network models: Erdos-Renyi: Random Graph. Watts-Strogatz: Small World. Barabasi-Albert: Scale-Free Networks. We also saw how to characterize the structure of networks by looking at different structural properties. Local Properties: Centrality Measures, Clustering, Topological Overlap, Motifs. Global Properties: Diameter, Giant Component, Degree Correlations.
We also Studied some dynamical consequences of Scale Free networks: Error-Attack Tolerance Vanishing Epidemic Threshold.
Vanishing Epidemic Threshold Random Network: Epidemic spreads if r > <k>/<k2> Random Network: Epidemic spreads if r >1
How predictable is an epidemic? Pi= 1 if is city has an infected individualand 0 otherwise. Overlap, measure similarity between the P’s describing different realizationsof the simulation
Heterogeneity in weight increases Predictability as there are some links That carry most of the traffic. (Effective degree is smaller) High degree nodes difficult prediction, As there are many possible paths that spreading cant take.
High weight – High Betweenness Low weight – High Betweenness
