Social inertia in collaboration networks

Jose J. Ramasco, Steven A. Morris

This work is a study of the properties of collaboration networks employing the formalism of weighted graphs to represent their one-mode projection. The weight of the edges is direc…

Construction of bipartite and unipartite weighted networks from collections of journal papers

Steven. A. Morris, Gary G. Yen

This work presents a model that allows the study of research specialties through the manifestations of the specialty's social and epistemological processes in a collection of journ…

Bipartite Yule Processes in Collections of Journal Papers

Steven A. Morris

Collections of journal papers, often referred to as 'citation networks', can be modeled as a collection of coupled bipartite networks which tend to exhibit linear growth and prefer…

A Group-Based Yule Model for Bipartite Author-Paper Networks

Michel L. Goldstein, Steven A. Morris, Gary G. Yen

This paper presents a novel model for author-paper networks, which is based on the assumption that authors are organized into groups and that, for each research topic, the number o…

Problems with Fitting to the Power-Law Distribution

Michel L. Goldstein, Steven A. Morris, Gary G. Yen

This short communication uses a simple experiment to show that fitting to a power law distribution by using graphical methods based on linear fit on the log-log scale is biased and…
