Guided Graph Generation: Evaluation of Graph Generators in Terms of Network Statistics, and a New Algorithm

Jérôme Kunegis, Jun Sun, Eiko Yoneki

We consider the problem of graph generation guided by network statistics, i.e., the generation of graphs which have given values of various numerical measures that characterize net…

SynGraphy: Succinct Summarisation of Large Networks via Small Synthetic Representative Graphs

Jérôme Kunegis, Pawan Kumar, Jun Sun +2

We describe SynGraphy, a method for visually summarising the structure of large network datasets that works by drawing smaller graphs generated to have similar structural propertie…

Modeling the Evolution of Networks as Shrinking Structural Diversity

Jérôme Kunegis

This article reviews and evaluates models of network evolution based on the notion of structural diversity. We show that diversity is an underlying theme of three principles of net…

Understanding Social Networks using Transfer Learning

Jun Sun, Steffen Staab, Jérôme Kunegis

A detailed understanding of users contributes to the understanding of the Web's evolution, and to the development of Web applications. Although for new Web platforms such a study i…

Predicting User Roles in Social Networks using Transfer Learning with Feature Transformation

Jun Sun, Jérôme Kunegis, Steffen Staab

How can we recognise social roles of people, given a completely unlabelled social network? We present a transfer learning approach to network role classification based on feature t…

Continuous-Time Quantum Walks on Directed Bipartite Graphs

Beat Tödtli, Monika Laner, Jouri Semenov +3

This paper investigates continuous-time quantum walks on directed bipartite graphs based on a graph's adjacency matrix. We prove that on bipartite graphs, probability transport bet…

Linguistic neighbourhoods: explaining cultural borders on Wikipedia through multilingual co-editing activity

Anna Samoilenko, Fariba karimi, Daniel Edler +2

In this paper, we study the network of global interconnections between language communities, based on shared co-editing interests of Wikipedia editors, and show that although Engli…

Exploiting the Structure of Bipartite Graphs for Algebraic and Spectral Graph Theory Applications

Jérôme Kunegis

In this article, we extend several algebraic graph analysis methods to bipartite networks. In various areas of science, engineering and commerce, many types of information can be r…

The Problem of Action at a Distance in Networks and the Emergence of Preferential Attachment from Triadic Closure

Jérôme Kunegis, Fariba Karimi, Jun Sun

In this paper, we characterise the notion of preferential attachment in networks as action at a distance, and argue that it can only be an emergent phenomenon -- the actual mechani…

DecLiNe -- Models for Decay of Links in Networks

Julia Preusse, Jérôme Kunegis, Matthias Thimm +1

The prediction of graph evolution is an important and challenging problem in the analysis of networks and of the Web in particular. But while the appearance of new links is part of…

Applications of Structural Balance in Signed Social Networks

Jérôme Kunegis

We present measures, models and link prediction algorithms based on the structural balance in signed social networks. Certain social networks contain, in addition to the usual 'fri…
