Predictability of Human Movements across Industry Sectors using Multilayer Networks

Maisha Islam Sejunti, Melissa Butler, Yingjie Hu +1

Predicting the patterns of human movement is important to applications from urban design to disease control and emergency response. In this work, we leverage machine learning (ML)…

Optimality as a Generative Principle for Network Structure

Guram Mikaberidze, Beso Mikaberidze, Dane Taylor

Most real-world networks have evolved or been engineered to optimize some function, yet a unified framework for studying optimal networks across domains is lacking. We introduce Gr…

Multilayer networks characterize human-mobility patterns by industry sector for the 2021 Texas winter storm

Melissa Butler, Alisha Khan, Francis Osei Tutu Afrifa +2

Understanding human mobility during disastrous events is crucial for emergency planning and disaster management. We develop a methodology to construct time-varying, multilayer netw…

A Parrondo paradox in susceptible-infectious-susceptible dynamics over periodic temporal networks

Maisha Islam Sejunti, Dane Taylor, Naoki Masuda

Many social and biological networks periodically change over time with daily, weekly, and other cycles. Thus motivated, we formulate and analyze susceptible-infectious-susceptible…

Ranking Edges by their Impact on the Spectral Complexity of Information Diffusion over Networks

Jeremy Kazimer, Manlio de Domenico, Peter J. Mucha +1

Despite the numerous ways now available to quantify which parts or subsystems of a network are most important, there remains a lack of centrality measures that are related to the c…

Balanced Hodge Laplacians Optimize Consensus Dynamics over Simplicial Complexes

Cameron Ziegler, Per Sebastian Skardal, Haimonti Dutta +1

Despite the vast literature on network dynamics, we still lack basic insights into dynamics on higher-order structures (e.g., edges, triangles, and more generally, -dimensional…

Coupling Asymmetry Optimizes Collective Dynamics over Multiplex Networks

Zhao Song, Dane Taylor

Networks are often interconnected, with one system wielding greater influence over another. However, the effects of such asymmetry on self-organized phenomena (e.g., consensus and…

Multiplex Markov Chains: Convection Cycles and Optimality

Dane Taylor

Multiplex networks are a common modeling framework for interconnected systems and multimodal data, yet we still lack fundamental insights for how multiplexity affects stochastic pr…

Case studies in network community detection

Saray Shai, Natalie Stanley, Clara Granell +2

Community structure describes the organization of a network into subgraphs that contain a prevalence of edges within each subgraph and relatively few edges across boundaries betwee…

Network-ensemble comparisons with stochastic rewiring and von Neumann entropy

Zichao Li, Peter J. Mucha, Dane Taylor

Assessing whether a given network is typical or atypical for a random-network ensemble (i.e., network-ensemble comparison) has widespread applications ranging from null-model selec…

Enhanced detectability of community structure in multilayer networks through layer aggregation

Dane Taylor, Saray Shai, Natalie Stanley +1

Many systems are naturally represented by a multilayer network in which edges exist in multiple layers that encode different, but potentially related, types of interactions, and it…

Eigenvector-Based Centrality Measures for Temporal Networks

Dane Taylor, Sean A. Myers, Aaron Clauset +2

Numerous centrality measures have been developed to quantify the importances of nodes in time-independent networks, and many of them can be expressed as the leading eigenvector of…

Social Climber attachment in forming networks produces phase transition in a measure of connectivity

Dane Taylor, Daniel B. Larremore

Formation and fragmentation of networks is typically studied using percolation theory, but most previous research has been restricted to studying a phase transition in cluster size…

Network connectivity during mergers and growth: optimizing the addition of a module

Dane Taylor, Juan G. Restrepo

The principal eigenvalue of a network's adjacency matrix often determines dynamics on the network (e.g., in synchronization and spreading processes) and some of its structural…
