Evolving networks by merging cliques.

چکیده
We propose a model for evolving networks by merging building blocks represented as complete graphs, reminiscent of modules in biological system or communities in sociology. The model shows power-law degree distributions, power-law clustering spectra, and high average clustering coefficients independent of network size. The analytical solutions indicate that a degree exponent is determined by the ratio of the number of merging nodes to that of all nodes in the blocks, demonstrating that the exponent is tunable, and are also applicable when the blocks are classical networks such as Erdös-Rényi or regular graphs. Our model becomes the same model as the Barabási-Albert model under a specific condition.

Evolving networks consist of cliques
Many real networks have cliques as their constitutional units. Here we present a family of scale-free network model consist of cliques, which is established by a simple recursive algorithm. We investigate the networks both analytically and numerically. The obtained analytical solution shows that the networks follow a powerlaw degree distribution, with degree exponent continuously tuned between ...
متن کاملMerging Similarity and Trust Based Social Networks to Enhance the Accuracy of Trust-Aware Recommender Systems
In recent years, collaborative filtering (CF) methods are important and widely accepted techniques are available for recommender systems. One of these techniques is user based that produces useful recommendations based on the similarity by the ratings of likeminded users. However, these systems suffer from several inherent shortcomings such as data sparsity and cold start problems. With the dev...
متن کاملEvolving Networks for Group Object Motion Estimation
This paper proposes a technique for group object motion estimation based on evolving graph networks. The main novelty over alternative group tracking techniques stems from learning the network structure for the group. An algorithm is proposed for automatic graph structure initialisation, incorporation of new nodes and unexisting nodes removal in parallel with the edge update. This evolving grap...

We present a family of scale-free network model consisting of cliques, which is established by a simple recursive algorithm. We investigate the networks both analytically and numerically. The obtained analytical solutions show that the networks follow a power-law degree distribution, with degree exponent continuously tuned between 2 and 3. The exact expression of clustering coefficient is also ...
