A Nonparametric Significance Test for Sampled Networks

Andrew Elliott, Elizabeth Leicht, Alan Whitmore +2

Our work is motivated by an interest in constructing a protein-protein interaction network that captures key features associated with Parkinson's disease. While there is an abundan…

Null Models for Community Detection in Spatially-Embedded, Temporal Networks

Marta Sarzynska, Elizabeth A. Leicht, Gerardo Chowell +1

In the study of networks, it is often insightful to use algorithms to determine mesoscale features such as "community structure", in which densely connected sets of nodes constitut…

The persistence of social signatures in human communication

J. Saramaki, E. A. Leicht, E. Lopez +3

The social network maintained by a focal individual, or ego, is intrinsically dynamic and typically exhibits some turnover in membership over time as personal circumstances change.…

Suppressing cascades of load in interdependent networks

Charles D. Brummitt, Raissa M. D'Souza, E. A. Leicht

Understanding how interdependence among systems affects cascading behaviors is increasingly important across many fields of science and engineering.Inspired by cascades of load she…

Sandpile cascades on interacting tree-like networks

Charles D. Brummitt, Raissa M. D'Souza, Elizabeth A. Leicht

The vulnerability of an isolated network to cascades is fundamentally affected by its interactions with other networks. Motivated by failures cascading among electrical grids, we s…

Percolation on interacting networks

E. A. Leicht, Raissa M. D'Souza

Most networks of interest do not live in isolation. Instead they form components of larger systems in which multiple networks with distinct topologies coexist and where elements di…
