Robust classification of salient links in complex networks

Daniel Grady, Christian Thiemann, Dirk Brockmann

Complex networks in natural, social, and technological systems generically exhibit an abundance of rich information. Extracting meaningful structural features from data is one of t…

Recurrent host mobility in spatial epidemics: beyond reaction-diffusion

Vitaly Belik, Theo Geisel, Dirk Brockmann

Human mobility is a key factor in spatial disease dynamics and related phenomena. In computational models host mobility is typically modelled by diffusion in space or on metapolula…

Modularity maximization and tree clustering: Novel ways to determine effective geographic borders

Daniel Grady, Rafael Brune, Christian Thiemann +2

Territorial subdivisions and geographic borders are essential for understanding phenomena in sociology, political science, history, and economics. They influence the interregional…

Complexity in human transportation networks: A comparative analysis of worldwide air transportation and global cargo ship movements

Grastivia O'Danleyman, Jake Jungbin Lee, Hanno Seebens +2

We present a comparative network theoretic analysis of the two largest global transportation networks: The worldwide air-transportation network (WAN) and the global cargoship netwo…

Natural human mobility patterns and spatial spread of infectious diseases

Vitaly Belik, Theo Geisel, Dirk Brockmann

We investigate a model for spatial epidemics explicitly taking into account bi-directional movements between base and destination locations on individual mobility networks. We prov…
