Quantifying the higher-order influence of scientific publications
Massimo Franceschet, Giovanni Colavizza
Citation impact is commonly assessed using direct, first-order citation relations. We consider here instead the indirect influence of publications on new publications via citations…
Crypto art: A decentralized view
Massimo Franceschet, Giovanni Colavizza, Tai Smith +6
This is a decentralized position paper on crypto art, which includes viewpoints from different actors of the system: artists, collectors, galleries, art scholars, data scientists.…
The Massey's method for sport rating: a network science perspective
Massimo Franceschet, Enrico Bozzo
We revisit the Massey's method for rating and ranking in sports and contextualize it as a general centrality measure in network science.
Arbitrarily regularizable graphs
Massimo Franceschet, Enrico Bozzo
A graph is regularizable if it is possible to assign weights to its edges so that all nodes have the same degree. Weights can be positive, nonnegative or arbitrary as soon as the r…
A theory on power in networks
Massimo Franceschet, Enrico Bozzo
The eigenvector centrality equation is a successful compromise between simplicity and expressivity. It claims that central actors are those connected with central oth…
Complex Beauty
Massimo Franceschet
Complex systems and their underlying convoluted networks are ubiquitous, all we need is an eye for them. They pose problems of organized complexity which cannot be approached with…
Vulnerability and power on networks
Enrico Bozzo, Massimo Franceschet, Franca Rinaldi
Inspired by socio-political scenarios, like dictatorships, in which a minority of people exercise control over a majority of weakly interconnected individuals, we propose vulnerabi…
Effective and efficient approximations of the generalized inverse of the graph Laplacian matrix with an application to current-flow betweenness centrality
Enrico Bozzo, Massimo Franceschet
We devise methods for finding approximations of the generalized inverse of the graph Laplacian matrix, which arises in many graph-theoretic applications. Finding this matrix in its…
The large-scale structure of journal citation networks
Massimo Franceschet
We analyse the large-scale structure of the journal citation network built from information contained in the Thomson-Reuters Journal Citation Reports. To this end, we take advantag…
Collaboration in computer science: a network science approach. Part II
Massimo Franceschet
We represent collaboration of authors in computer science papers in terms of both affiliation and collaboration networks and observe how these networks evolved over time since 1960…
Collaboration in computer science: a network science approach. Part I
Massimo Franceschet
Co-authorship in publications within a discipline uncovers interesting properties of the analysed field. We represent collaboration in academic papers of computer science in terms…
A logic for networks
Massimo Franceschet
Networks are pervasive in the real world. Nature, society, economy, and technology are supported by ostensibly different networks that in fact share an amazing number of interestin…
PageRank: Standing on the shoulders of giants
Massimo Franceschet
PageRank is a Web page ranking technique that has been a fundamental ingredient in the development and success of the Google search engine. The method is still one of the many sign…
The first Italian research assessment exercise: a bibliometric perspective
Massimo Franceschet, Antonio Costantini
In December 2003, seventeen years after the first UK research assessment exercise, Italy started up its first-ever national research evaluation, with the aim to evaluate, using the…
The skewness of computer science
Massimo Franceschet
Computer science is a relatively young discipline combining science, engineering, and mathematics. The main flavors of computer science research involve the theoretical development…
Frozen Footprints
Massimo Franceschet
Bibliometrics has the ambitious goal of measuring science. To this end, it exploits the way science is disseminated trough scientific publications and the resulting citation networ…
