A new complex network model, called q-snapback network, is introduced. Basic topological characteristics of the network, such as degree distribution, average path length, clustering coefficient and Pearson correlation coefficient, are evaluated. The typical 4-motifs of the network are simulated. The robustness of both state and structural controllabilities of the network against targeted and ra...

Recently, the assortative mixing of complex networks has received much attention partly because of its significance in various social networks. In this paper, a new scheme to generate an assortative growth network with given degree distribution is presented using a Monte Carlo sampling method. Since the degrees of a great number of real-life networks obey either power-law or Poisson distributio...

Scale-free networks appear in many application domains such as social and biological networks [BA99, BB03, BO04]. Roughly speaking, scale-free networks have power-law degree distribution, ultra-short average path length and high clustering coefficient [BA99, BB03, BO04]. This paper presents new methods for visualising scale-free networks in three dimensions. To make effective use of the third d...

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 ...

Concept associations can be represented by a network that consists of a set of nodes representing concepts and a set of edges representing their relationships. Complex networks exhibit some common topological features including small diameter, high degree of clustering, power-law degree distribution, and modularity. We investigated the topological properties of a network constructed from co-occ...

Description This function calculates the coefficient of variation for each gene in the qPCR experiment, and returns the average coefficient of variation across all genes.

A theoretical treatment of the determination of the Z-average sedimentation coefficient in reversibly self-aggregating systems is presented. These equations are useful for determination of formation constants of polymers.

due to the scarcity of water resources, the need for sustainable development of drip irrigation tape is essential in iran. a number of drip irrigation tape systems used in sugar beet fields of isfahan and chahar mahal va bakhtiari provinces were evaluated and were compared with furrow irrigation methods in two consecutive years. the actual water use efficiency (wuesy, wuewsy) in lower quarter, ...

Recently, research on complex network theory and applications draws a lot of attention in both academy and industry. In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) area of research, a critical issue is to design the most effective topology for given problems. It is natural and significant to consider complex networks topology when optimising the MANET topology. Current works usually transform MANET or sens...

T. Mukai and co-workers in the late 1960s and O. Ohnishi in the 1970s carried out a series of experiments to obtain direct estimates of the average coefficient of dominance (h) of minor viability mutations in Drosophila melanogaster. The results of these experiments, although inconsistent, have been interpreted as indicating slight recessivity of deleterious mutations, with h approximately 0.4....
