An exact and fast solution of the inverse Regularized Optimal Transport problem

Dario Mazzilli, Riccardo Piombo, Lorenzo Buffa +1

Optimal transport describes the most efficient way to move mass between two distributions, given a cost matrix for moving mass between each pair of locations. Entropic optimal tran…

Statistical Mechanics of the Sub-Optimal Transport

Riccardo Piombo, Lorenzo Buffa, Dario Mazzilli +1

Statistical mechanics is a powerful framework for analyzing optimization yielding analytical results for matching, optimal transport, and other combinatorial problems. However, the…

Maximum entropy modeling of Optimal Transport: the sub-optimality regime and the transition from dense to sparse networks

Lorenzo Buffa, Dario Mazzilli, Riccardo Piombo +3

We present a bipartite network model that captures intermediate stages of optimization by blending the Maximum Entropy approach with Optimal Transport. In this framework, the netwo…

Structural Change, Employment, and Inequality in Europe: an Economic Complexity Approach

Bernardo Caldarola, Dario Mazzilli, Aurelio Patelli +1

Structural change consists of industrial diversification towards more productive, knowledge intensive activities. However, changes in the productive structure bear inherent links w…

Ranking species in complex ecosystems through nestedness maximization

Manuel Sebastian Mariani, Dario Mazzilli, Aurelio Patelli +1

Identifying the rank of species in a social or ecological network is a difficult task, since the rank of each species is invariably determined by complex interactions stipulated wi…

Economic complexity and the sustainability transition: A review of data, methods, and literature

Bernardo Caldarola, Dario Mazzilli, Lorenzo Napolitano +2

Economic Complexity (EC) methods have gained increasing popularity across fields and disciplines. In particular, the EC toolbox has proved particularly promising in the study of co…

Inferring comparative advantage via entropy maximization

Matteo Bruno, Dario Mazzilli, Aurelio Patelli +2

We revise the procedure proposed by Balassa to infer comparative advantage, which is a standard tool, in Economics, to analyze specialization (of countries, regions, etc.). Balassa…

Equivalence between the Fitness-Complexity and the Sinkhorn-Knopp algorithms

Dario Mazzilli, Manuel Sebastian Mariani, Flaviano Morone +1

We uncover the connection between the Fitness-Complexity algorithm, developed in the economic complexity field, and the Sinkhorn-Knopp algorithm, widely used in diverse domains ran…

Universality, criticality and complexity of information propagation in social media

Daniele Notarmuzi, Claudio Castellano, Alessandro Flammini +2

Information avalanches in social media are typically studied in a similar fashion as avalanches of neuronal activity in the brain. Whereas a large body of literature reveals substa…
