Sexual network analysis of a gonorrhoea outbreak.
OBJECTIVES Sexual partnerships can be viewed as networks in order to study disease transmission. We examined the transmission of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in a localised outbreak in Alberta, Canada, using measures of network centrality to determine the association between risk of infection of network members and their position within the sexual network. We also compared risk in smaller disconnected...
متن کاملThe Dynamic Power Law Model
I propose a new measure of common, time-varying tail risk for large cross sections of stock returns. Stock return tails are described by a power law in which the power law exponent is allowed to transition smoothly through time as a function of recent data. It is motivated by asset pricing theory and is estimable via quasi-maximum likelihood. Estimates indicate substantial time variation in sto...

اندیشمندان و صاحب نظران علوم اجتماعی بر این باورند که مرحله تازه ای در تاریخ جوامع بشری اغاز شده است. ویژگیهای این جامعه نو را می توان پدیده هایی از جمله اقتصاد اطلاعاتی جهانی ، هندسه متغیر شبکه ای، فرهنگ مجاز واقعی ، توسعه حیرت انگیز فناوری های دیجیتال، خدمات پیوسته و نیز فشردگی زمان و مکان برشمرد. از سوی دیگر قدرت به عنوان موضوع اصلی علم سیاست جایگاه مهمی در روابط انسانی دارد، قدرت و بازتولید...
15 صفحه اولA signature of power law network dynamics
Can one hear the 'sound' of a growing network? We address the problem of recognizing the topology of evolving biological or social networks. Starting from percolation theory, we analytically prove a linear inverse relationship between two simple graph parameters—the logarithm of the average cluster size and logarithm of the ratio of the edges of the graph to the theoretically maximum number of ...
متن کاملEffects of Valve Closing Law and Unsteady Friction Model on Damping Pressure Waves in a Network
Water-hammer is a transient condition which may occur in a network as a result of rapid or slow valve closures, pump failures, changes in turbine loading, etc. It creates high and low pressure waves which travel along the system and decay as a result of wall shear stress. Comparison o experimental and theoretical results revealed the failure of steady or quasi-steady models in correctly predict...
