Structural Change and Random Graph Models in Global Oil Trade Networks

Anthony Bonato, Vincent Luong, Kyne Santos

We studied structural change in global oil trade using a network approach. Using UN Comtrade data, we examined the temporal evolution of international trade networks, with an empha…

The Iterated Local Model for tournaments

Anthony Bonato, MacKenzie Carr, Ketan Chaudhary +2

Transitivity is a central, generative principle in social and other complex networks, capturing the tendency for two nodes with a common neighbor to form a direct connection. We pr…

Network analysis and link prediction in competitive women's basketball

Anthony Bonato, Morganna Hinds

Network structure and its role in prediction are examined in competitive basketball at the team and player levels. Adversarial game outcome networks from NCAA Division I women's ba…

Network Embedding Analysis for Anti-Money Laundering Detection

Anthony Bonato, Adam Szava

We employ network embedding to detect money laundering in financial transaction networks. Using real anonymized banking data, we model over one million accounts as a directed graph…

Network Analysis of Global Banking Systems and Detection of Suspicious Transactions

Anthony Bonato, Juan Chavez Palan, Adam Szava

A novel network-based approach is introduced to analyze banking systems, focusing on two main themes: identifying influential nodes within global banking networks using Bank for In…

Analysis and predictability of centrality measures in competition networks

Anthony Bonato, Mariam Walaa

The Common Out-Neighbor (or CON) score quantifies shared influence through outgoing links in competitive contexts. A dynamic analysis of competition networks reveals the CON score…

Enhancing Anti-Money Laundering Efforts with Network-Based Algorithms

Anthony Bonato, Juan Sebastian Chavez Palan, Adam Szava

The global banking system has faced increasing challenges in combating money laundering, necessitating advanced methods for detecting suspicious transactions. Anti-money laundering…

Clique counts for network similarity

Anthony Bonato, Zhiyuan Zhang

Counts of small subgraphs, or graphlet counts, are widely applicable to measure graph similarity. Computing graphlet counts can be computationally expensive and may pose obstacles…

The Iterated Local Transitivity Model for Tournaments

Anthony Bonato, Ketan Chaudhary

A key generative principle within social and other complex networks is transitivity, where friends of friends are more likely friends. We propose a new model for highly dense compl…

Winner does not take all: contrasting centrality in adversarial networks

Anthony Bonato, Joey Kapusin, Jiajie Yuan

In adversarial networks, edges correspond to negative interactions such as competition or dominance. We introduce a new type of node called a low-key leader in adversarial networks…

Small Number of Communities in Twitter Keyword Networks

Linda Abraham, Anthony Bonato, Alexander Nazareth

We investigate networks formed by keywords in tweets and study their community structure. Based on datasets of tweets mined from over seven hundred political figures in the U.S. an…

The Iterated Local Directed Transitivity Model for Social Networks

Anthony Bonato, Daniel W. Cranston, Melissa Huggan +2

We introduce a new directed graph model for social networks, based on the transitivity of triads. In the Iterated Local Directed Transitivity (ILDT) model, new nodes are born over…

Centrality in dynamic competition networks

Anthony Bonato, Nicole Eikmeier, David F. Gleich +1

Competition networks are formed via adversarial interactions between actors. The Dynamic Competition Hypothesis predicts that influential actors in competition networks should have…

Dynamic Competition Networks: detecting alliances and leaders

Anthony Bonato, Nicole Eikmeier, David F. Gleich +1

We consider social networks of competing agents that evolve dynamically over time. Such dynamic competition networks are directed, where a directed edge from nodes to corre…

Mining and modeling character networks

Anthony Bonato, David Ryan D'Angelo, Ethan R. Elenberg +2

We investigate social networks of characters found in cultural works such as novels and films. These character networks exhibit many of the properties of complex networks such as s…

The domination number of on-line social networks and random geometric graphs

Anthony Bonato, Marc Lozier, Dieter Mitsche +2

We consider the domination number for on-line social networks, both in a stochastic network model, and for real-world, networked data. Asymptotic sublinear bounds are rigorously de…

Dimensionality of social networks using motifs and eigenvalues

Anthony Bonato, David F. Gleich, Myunghwan Kim +4

We consider the dimensionality of social networks, and develop experiments aimed at predicting that dimension. We find that a social network model with nodes and links sampled from…

Models of on-line social networks

Anthony Bonato, Noor Hadi, Paul Horn +2

We present a deterministic model for on-line social networks (OSNs) based on transitivity and local knowledge in social interactions. In the Iterated Local Transitivity (ILT) model…
