Sparsity of weighted networks: measures and applications
Swati Goswami, Asit K. Das, Subhas C. Nandy
A majority of real life networks are weighted and sparse. The present article aims at characterization of weighted networks based on sparsity, as a measure of inherent diversity, o…

Modified Lomax Model: A heavy-tailed distribution for fitting large-scale real-world complex networks
Swarup Chattopadhyay, Tanujit Chakraborty, Kuntal Ghosh +1
Real-world networks are generally claimed to be scale-free, meaning that the degree distributions follow the classical power-law, at least asymptotically. Yet, closer observation s…

Sparsity Measure of a Network Graph: Gini Index
Swati Goswami, C. A. Murthy, Asit K. Das
This article examines the application of a popular measure of sparsity, Gini Index, on network graphs. A wide variety of network graphs happen to be sparse. But the index with whic…
