Using covariance of node states to design early warning signals for network dynamics
Shilong Yu, Neil G. MacLaren, Naoki Masuda
Real-life systems often experience regime shifts. An early warning signal (EWS) is a quantity that attempts to anticipate such a regime shift. Because complex systems of practical…
Observing network dynamics through sentinel nodes
Neil G. MacLaren, Baruch Barzel, Naoki Masuda
A fundamental premise of statistical physics is that the particles in a physical system are interchangeable, and hence the state of each specific component is representative of the…
Applicability of spatial early warning signals to complex network dynamics
Neil G. MacLaren, Kazuyuki Aihara, Naoki Masuda
Early warning signals (EWSs) for complex dynamical systems aim to anticipate tipping points before they occur. While signals computed from time series data, such as temporal varian…
Effects of Network Connectivity and Functional Diversity Distribution on Human Collective Ideation
Yiding Cao, Yingjun Dong, Minjun Kim +5
Human collective tasks in teams and organizations increasingly require participation of members with diverse backgrounds working in networked social environments. However, little i…
