Multiple dynamical time-scales in networks with hierarchically nested modular organization
Many natural and engineered complex networks have intricate mesoscopic organization, e.g., the clustering of the constituent nodes into several communities or modules. Often, such modularity is manifested at several different hierarchical levels, where the clusters defined at one level appear as elementary entities at the next higher level. Using a simple model of a hierarchical modular network...
متن کاملModular and Hierarchically Modular Organization of Brain Networks
Brain networks are increasingly understood as one of a large class of information processing systems that share important organizational principles in common, including the property of a modular community structure. A module is topologically defined as a subset of highly inter-connected nodes which are relatively sparsely connected to nodes in other modules. In brain networks, topological modul...
متن کاملNeural Computations in a Dynamical System with Multiple Time Scales
Neural systems display rich short-term dynamics at various levels, e.g., spike-frequency adaptation (SFA) at the single-neuron level, and short-term facilitation (STF) and depression (STD) at the synapse level. These dynamical features typically cover a broad range of time scales and exhibit large diversity in different brain regions. It remains unclear what is the computational benefit for the...
متن کاملGenerating Hierarchically Modular Networks via Link Switching
This paper introduces a method to generate hierarchically modular networks with prescribed node degree list by link switching. Unlike many existing network generating models, our method does not use link probabilities to achieve modularity. Instead, it utilizes a user-specified topology to determine relatedness between pairs of nodes in terms of edge distances and links are switched to increase...
متن کاملOrganization of modular networks
We examine the global organization of heterogeneous equilibrium networks consisting of a number of well-distinguished interconnected parts-"communities" or modules. We develop an analytical approach allowing us to obtain the statistics of connected components and the intervertex distance distribution in these modular networks, and to describe their global organization and structure. In particul...
