The backbone of science: analysis of citation networks between papers and their sources

Wonhee Jeong, Dimitri Marinelli, Satyaki Sikdar +2

The bibliography of scientific papers lists items with variable degree of relevance for the contents of the paper itself. If we could identify the sources, i.e., the works that act…

Joint Subgraph-to-Subgraph Transitions -- Generalizing Triadic Closure for Powerful and Interpretable Graph Modeling

Justus Hibshman, Daniel Gonzalez Cedre, Satyaki Sikdar +1

We generalize triadic closure, along with previous generalizations of triadic closure, under an intuitive umbrella generalization: the Subgraph-to-Subgraph Transition (SST). We pre…
