===The master equation approach===
 
 
A [[master equation]] can express the behaviour of an undirected growing network where, at each time step, a new node is added to the network, linked to an old node  (randomly chosen and without preference). The initial network is formed by two nodes and two links between them at time <math>t = 2</math>, this configuration is necessary only to simplify further calculations, so at time <math>t = n</math> the network have <math>n</math> nodes and <math>n</math> links.
 
 
The master equation for this network is:
 
 
: <math>p(k,s,t+1) = \frac 1 t p(k-1,s,t) + \left(1 - \frac 1 t \right)p(k,s,t),</math>
 
 
where <math>p(k,s,t)</math> is the probability to have the node <math>s</math> with degree <math>k</math> at time <math>t+1</math>, and <math>s</math> is the time step when this node was added to the network. Note that there are only two ways for an old node <math>s</math> to have <math>k</math> links at time <math>t+1</math>:
 
 
* The node <math>s</math> have degree <math>k-1</math> at time <math>t</math> and will be linked by the new node with probability <math>1/t</math>
 
* Already has degree <math>k</math> at time <math>t</math> and will not be linked by the new node.
 
 
After simplifying this model, the degree distribution is <math>P(k) = 2^{-k}. </math><ref name="dorogovtsev-mendes">{{cite book|last1=Dorogovtsev|first1=S N|last2=Mendes|first2=J F F|title=Evolution of Networks: From Biological Nets to the Internet and WWW|date=2003|publisher=Oxford University Press, Inc.|location=New York, NY, USA|isbn=978-0198515906}}</ref>
 
 
Based on this growing network, an epidemic model is developed following a simple rule: Each time the new node is added and after choosing the old node to link, a decision is made: whether or not this new node will be infected. The master equation for this epidemic model is:
 
 
: <math>p_r(k,s,t) = r_t \frac 1 t p_r(k-1,s,t) + \left(1 - \frac 1 t \right) p_r(k,s,t),</math>
 
 
where <math>r_t</math> represents the decision to infect (<math>r_t = 1</math>) or not (<math>r_t = 0</math>). Solving this master equation, the following solution is obtained: <math>\tilde{P}_r(k) = \left(\frac r 2 \right)^k. </math><ref name="cotacallapa-hase">{{cite journal|last1=Cotacallapa|first1=M|last2=Hase|first2=M O|title=Epidemics in networks: a master equation approach|journal=Journal of Physics A|date=2016|volume=49|issue=6|page=065001|doi=10.1088/1751-8113/49/6/065001|bibcode=2016JPhA...49f5001C|arxiv=1604.01049}}</ref>

具体内容

Network science is an academic field which studies complex networks such as telecommunication networks, computer networks, biological networks, cognitive and semantic networks, and social networks, considering distinct elements or actors represented by nodes (or vertices) and the connections between the elements or actors as links (or edges). The field draws on theories and methods including graph theory from mathematics, statistical mechanics from physics, data mining and information visualization from computer science, inferential modeling from statistics, and social structure from sociology. The United States National Research Council defines network science as "the study of network representations of physical, biological, and social phenomena leading to predictive models of these phenomena."[1]

网络科学(Network Science)是一个研究复杂网络的学术领域,如通讯网络,计算机网络,生物网络,认知和语义网络,以及社会网络,主要由节点(顶点)表示不同元素或参与者,由连边表示元素或参与者之间的联系。该领域借鉴了数学中的图论,物理学中的统计力学,计算机科学中的数据挖掘和信息可视化,统计学中的推理建模和社会学中的社会结构等理论和方法。 美国国家研究委员会(The United States National Research Council)将网络科学定义为“研究物理、生物和社会现象的网络表征,从而得出这些现象的预测模型。” [1]

背景和历史

The study of networks has emerged in diverse disciplines as a means of analyzing complex relational data. The earliest known paper in this field is the famous Seven Bridges of Königsberg written by Leonhard Euler in 1736. Euler's mathematical description of vertices and edges was the foundation of graph theory, a branch of mathematics that studies the properties of pairwise relations in a network structure. The field of graph theory continued to develop and found applications in chemistry (Sylvester, 1878).

网络研究作为分析复杂关系数据的一种手段已经出现在不同的学科中。在这个领域已知最早的论文是1736年欧拉(Leonhard Euler)写的著名的柯尼斯堡七桥问题(Seven Bridges of Königsberg)。欧拉对顶点和边的数学描述是图论的基础,这是一个研究网络结构中成对关系的性质的数学分支。图论的领域继续发展,并在化学中得到应用(Sylvester,1878)。


Dénes Kőnig, a Hungarian mathematician and professor, wrote the first book in Graph Theory, entitled "Theory of finite and infinite graphs", in 1936 [2]

匈牙利数学家兼教授Dénes Kőnig在1936年写了图论的第一本书《有限图和无限图理论》(Theory of finite and infinite graphs)。


Moreno's sociogram of a 1st grade class.

In the 1930s Jacob Moreno, a psychologist in the Gestalt tradition, arrived in the United States. He developed the sociogram and presented it to the public in April 1933 at a convention of medical scholars. Moreno claimed that "before the advent of sociometry no one knew what the interpersonal structure of a group 'precisely' looked like" (Moreno, 1953). The sociogram was a representation of the social structure of a group of elementary school students. The boys were friends of boys and the girls were friends of girls with the exception of one boy who said he liked a single girl. The feeling was not reciprocated. This network representation of social structure was found so intriguing that it was printed in The New York Times (April 3, 1933, page 17). The sociogram has found many applications and has grown into the field of social network analysis.

20世纪30年代,格式塔传统的心理学家雅各布·莫雷诺Jacob Moreno来到美国。 在1933年4月的一次医学学者大会上,他在大会上展示了他制作的社网图 sociogram。 莫雷诺声称“在社会计量学出现之前,没有人知道一个群体的人际关系结构‘精确地’看起来像什么”(莫雷诺,1953)。 这张社网图展示一群小学生的社会结构。男孩是男孩的朋友,女孩是女孩的朋友,只有一个男孩说他喜欢另一个单身女孩但是没有得到回应。 这个网络展示的社会结构非常有趣,也被刊登在《纽约时报》上(1933年4月3日,第17页)。 社网图已经有许多的应用场景,并且已经发展成为社会网络分析social network analysis的一个子领域。


Probabilistic theory in network science developed as an offshoot of graph theory with Paul Erdős and Alfréd Rényi's eight famous papers on random graphs. For social networks the exponential random graph model or p* is a notational framework used to represent the probability space of a tie occurring in a social network. An alternate approach to network probability structures is the network probability matrix, which models the probability of edges occurring in a network, based on the historic presence or absence of the edge in a sample of networks.

20世纪90年代,在Paul Erdős和Alfréd Rényi发表了8篇关于随机图的著名论文之后,网络科学中的概率论 Probabilistic theory 作为图论的一个分支发展起来了。 对于社交网络social network来说,指数随机图模型或p* (是一个记号框架),用来表示在一个社交网络中连边在概率空间发生的概率。 网络概率结构的另一种替代表示方法是网络概率矩阵,它根据网络样本中边的历史信息来计算这条边在网络中出现的概率。


In 1998, David Krackhardt and Kathleen Carley introduced the idea of a meta-network with the PCANS Model. They suggest that "all organizations are structured along these three domains, Individuals, Tasks, and Resources". Their paper introduced the concept that networks occur across multiple domains and that they are interrelated. This field has grown into another sub-discipline of network science called dynamic network analysis.

1998年,David Krackhardt和Kathleen Carley提出了用PCANS模型构建元网络meta-network的想法。 他们建议所有的组织都通过“个人、任务和资源”来构建。 他们的论文介绍了新的网络概念,即网络发生在多个领域的且相互关联。 这个领域已经发展也成为网络科学的另一个子学科,叫做动态网络分析dynamic network analysis。


More recently other network science efforts have focused on mathematically describing different network topologies. Duncan Watts reconciled empirical data on networks with mathematical representation, describing the small-world network. Albert-László Barabási and Reka Albert developed the scale-free network which is a loosely defined network topology that contains hub vertices with many connections, that grow in a way to maintain a constant ratio in the number of the connections versus all other nodes. Although many networks, such as the internet, appear to maintain this aspect, other networks have long tailed distributions of nodes that only approximate scale free ratios.

最近其他网络科学的研究致力于用数学的方式描述不同网络的拓扑结构。邓肯·瓦茨Duncan Watts 将网络上的经验数据与数学表达相结合,描述了小世界网络。 艾伯特-拉斯洛·巴拉巴西 Albert-László BarabásiReka Albert发现了无标度网络,简单说就是包含Hub中心节点(连边数量很多的节点),且连边的数量和节点数量呈现常数比率的增长方式,即一个网络上节点的度(节点所在连边的数量)分布服从幂指数为2和3之间的幂律分布。尽管许多网络,比如互联网,似乎保持了这样的特性,但是其他网络的节点分布表现出长尾特性,仅仅是接近无标度比例。

国防部倡议

The U.S. military first became interested in network-centric warfare as an operational concept based on network science in 1996. John A. Parmentola, the U.S. Army Director for Research and Laboratory Management, proposed to the Army’s Board on Science and Technology (BAST) on December 1, 2003 that Network Science become a new Army research area. The BAST, the Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences for the National Research Council (NRC) of the National Academies, serves as a convening authority for the discussion of science and technology issues of importance to the Army and oversees independent Army-related studies conducted by the National Academies. The BAST conducted a study to find out whether identifying and funding a new field of investigation in basic research, Network Science, could help close the gap between what is needed to realize Network-Centric Operations and the current primitive state of fundamental knowledge of networks.

1996年,美国军方第一次对网络中心战感兴趣,将其作为一个基于网络科学的军事概念。 2003年12月1日,美国陆军研究和实验室管理主任 John A. Parmentola 向陆军科学和技术委员会提议,网络科学成为陆军的一个新的研究领域。科学和技术委员会是美国国家学院国家研究委员会工程和物理科学司的下属部门,主要讨论对陆军重要的科学和技术问题,并且监督美国国家学院进行的与陆军相关的独立研究。 科学和技术委员会进行了一项研究,他们想通过确定和资助一个新的研究领域的基础研究:网络科学,希望可以帮助找到网络中心战所必须的知识,从而缩小实现网络中心战与当前网络科学理论基础的差距。


As a result, the BAST issued the NRC study in 2005 titled Network Science (referenced above) that defined a new field of basic research in Network Science for the Army. Based on the findings and recommendations of that study and the subsequent 2007 NRC report titled Strategy for an Army Center for Network Science, Technology, and Experimentation, Army basic research resources were redirected to initiate a new basic research program in Network Science. To build a new theoretical foundation for complex networks, some of the key Network Science research efforts now ongoing in Army laboratories address:

因此,科学和技术委员在2005年发布了NRC的研究报告,题为《网络科学定义了美国陆军网络科学基础研究新领域》。 基于这项研究的发现和建议,以及随后2007年 NRC 题为基于网络科学、技术和实战的战略研究报告,陆军基础研究资源被重新投入在网络科学的一个新的基础研究项目。为了建立复杂网络的全新的理论基础,美国陆军实验室正在进行的一些关键的网络科学研究工作致力于:


  • Mathematical models of network behavior to predict performance with network size, complexity, and environment
  • Optimized human performance required for network-enabled warfare
  • Networking within ecosystems and at the molecular level in cells.
  • 网络行为的数学模型,以预测网络规模、复杂度和环境的表现
  • 网络化战争network-enabled warfare所需的最佳人类表现
  • 生态系统中基于细胞分子层面的网络建模


As initiated in 2004 by Frederick I. Moxley with support he solicited from David S. Alberts, the Department of Defense helped to establish the first Network Science Center in conjunction with the U.S. Army at the United States Military Academy (USMA). Under the tutelage of Dr. Moxley and the faculty of the USMA, the first interdisciplinary undergraduate courses in Network Science were taught to cadets at West Point. In order to better instill the tenets of network science among its cadre of future leaders, the USMA has also instituted a five-course undergraduate minor in Network Science.

正如2004年 David S. Alberts支持Frederick I. Moxley那样,国防部帮助美国陆军一起在美国军事学院(USMA)建立了第一个网络科学中心。 在Moxley博士和美国军事学院(USMA)研究员的指导下,西点军校开设了首个网络科学本科生课程。为了更好地向其未来领导干部灌输网络科学的信条,美国军事学院还在网络科学下设置了一个5节课本科生辅修课程。


In 2006, the U.S. Army and the United Kingdom (UK) formed the Network and Information Science International Technology Alliance, a collaborative partnership among the Army Research Laboratory, UK Ministry of Defense and a consortium of industries and universities in the U.S. and UK. The goal of the alliance is to perform basic research in support of Network- Centric Operations across the needs of both nations.

2006年,美国陆军和英国成立了网络和信息科学国际技术联盟,这是美国陆军研究实验室、英国国防部以及美国和英国的工业和大学联盟之间的合作伙伴关系。 该联盟的目标是进行基础研究,以支持两国需要的网络中心作战。


In 2009, the U.S. Army formed the Network Science CTA, a collaborative research alliance among the Army Research Laboratory, CERDEC, and a consortium of about 30 industrial R&D labs and universities in the U.S. The goal of the alliance is to develop a deep understanding of the underlying commonalities among intertwined social/cognitive, information, and communications networks, and as a result improve our ability to analyze, predict, design, and influence complex systems interweaving many kinds of networks.

2009年,美国陆军成立了网络科学 CTA,这是一个由陆军研究实验室、 CERDEC 和美国大约30个工业研发实验室和大学组成的联盟之间的合作研究联盟。 这个联盟的目标是深入理解交织在一起的社会 / 认知、信息和通信网络之间的潜在共性,从而提高我们分析、预测、设计和影响交织在多种网络中的复杂系统的能力。

Subsequently, as a result of these efforts, the U.S. Department of Defense has sponsored numerous research projects that support Network Science.

随后,作为这些努力的结果,美国国防部赞助了许多支持网络科学的研究项目。

网络性质

Often, networks have certain attributes that can be calculated to analyze the properties & characteristics of the network. The behavior of these network properties often define network models and can be used to analyze how certain models contrast to each other. Many of the definitions for other terms used in network science can be found in Glossary of graph theory.

通常,网络具有一些可计算的属性来分析网络的性质和特征。 这些网络属性的特征通常被定义为网络模型 ,可用于对比分析不同模型之间的差异。 网络科学中使用的许多其他术语的定义可以在图论术语表Glossary of graph theory中找到。


规模

The size of a network can refer to the number of nodes [math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math] or, less commonly, the number of edges [math]\displaystyle{ E }[/math] which (for connected graphs with no multi-edges) can range from [math]\displaystyle{ N-1 }[/math] (a tree) to [math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max} }[/math] (a complete graph). In the case of a simple graph (a network in which at most one (undirected) edge exists between each pair of vertices, and in which no vertices connect to themselves), we have [math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max}=\tbinom N2=N(N-1)/2 }[/math]; for directed graphs (with no self-connected nodes), [math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max}=N(N-1) }[/math]; for directed graphs with self-connections allowed, [math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max}=N^2 }[/math]. In the circumstance of a graph within which multiple edges may exist between a pair of vertices, [math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max}=\infty }[/math].

网络的规模可以由节点的个数[math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math],或者,少数情况下,连边的数量[math]\displaystyle{ E }[/math](对于没有重边的连通图),连边的个数E的范围一般是从[math]\displaystyle{ N-1 }[/math] (看做是一个树)到[math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max} }[/math] (看做是一个完全图)。在简单图的例子中(网络中在每对节点之间至多存在一条(无向)边,并且没有节点连向自己),可以计算[math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max}=\tbinom N2=N(N-1)/2 }[/math];对于有向图(没有自环self-connected的节点),[math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max}=N(N-1) }[/math];对于有向图且允许存在自环的节点,[math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max}=N^2 }[/math].还有另外一种特殊情况就是一对节点之间存在重边, [math]\displaystyle{ E_{\max}=\infty }[/math].

密度 Density

The density [math]\displaystyle{ D }[/math] of a network is defined as a ratio of the number of edges [math]\displaystyle{ E }[/math] to the number of possible edges in a network with [math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math] nodes, given (in the case of simple graphs) by the binomial coefficient [math]\displaystyle{ \tbinom N2 }[/math], giving [math]\displaystyle{ D =\frac{E-(N-1)}{Emax - (N-1)} = \frac{2(E-N+1)}{N(N-3)+2} }[/math] Another possible equation is [math]\displaystyle{ D = \frac{T-2N+2}{N(N-3)+2}, }[/math] whereas the ties [math]\displaystyle{ T }[/math] are unidirectional (Wasserman & Faust 1994).[3] This gives a better overview over the network density, because unidirectional relationships can be measured.

网络的密度 [math]\displaystyle{ D }[/math] 通常定义为网络中已有的连边数量[math]\displaystyle{ E }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math] 都连接的所有可能边数的的比值,例如在简单图中,所有可能的连边总数可由二项式系数binomial coefficient计算得到 [math]\displaystyle{ \tbinom N2 }[/math],所以网络的密度[math]\displaystyle{ D =\frac{E-(N-1)}{Emax - (N-1)} = \frac{2(E-N+1)}{N(N-3)+2} }[/math],另外一个可能的等式就是[math]\displaystyle{ D = \frac{T-2N+2}{N(N-3)+2} }[/math] ,而[math]\displaystyle{ T }[/math] 节是没有方向的(Wasserman & Faust 1994)。这为网络密度提供了更好的概述,因为可以度量单向关系。

平面网络密度

The density [math]\displaystyle{ D }[/math] of a network, where there is no intersection between edges, is defined as a ratio of the number of edges [math]\displaystyle{ E }[/math] to the number of possible edges in a network with [math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math] nodes, given by a graph with no intersecting edges [math]\displaystyle{ (E_{\max}=3N-6) }[/math], giving [math]\displaystyle{ D = \frac{E-N+1}{2N-5}. }[/math]

一个网络的密度[math]\displaystyle{ D }[/math] 被定义为连边数量 [math]\displaystyle{ E }[/math]和节点数量[math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math]的比值,

平均度 Average degree

The degree [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math] of a node is the number of edges connected to it. Closely related to the density of a network is the average degree, [math]\displaystyle{ \langle k\rangle = \tfrac{2E}{N} }[/math] (or, in the case of directed graphs, [math]\displaystyle{ \langle k\rangle = \tfrac{E}{N} }[/math], the former factor of 2 arising from each edge in an undirected graph contributing to the degree of two distinct vertices). In the ER random graph model ([math]\displaystyle{ G(N,p) }[/math]) we can compute the expected value of [math]\displaystyle{ \langle k \rangle }[/math] (equal to the expected value of [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math] of an arbitrary vertex): a random vertex has [math]\displaystyle{ N-1 }[/math] other vertices in the network available, and with probability [math]\displaystyle{ p }[/math], connects to each. Thus, [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb{E}[\langle k \rangle]=\mathbb{E}[k]= p(N-1) }[/math].

一个节点连接的边数称为节点的度[math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math],网络中的密度和节点的度有密切的关系,网络中所有节点的度的平均值称为网络的平均度,其中平均度[math]\displaystyle{ \langle k\rangle = \tfrac{2E}{N} }[/math] (或者在一些有向图中, [math]\displaystyle{ \langle k\rangle = \tfrac{E}{N} }[/math],分子中多了一个2倍的关系,是因为有向图中节点的度是无向图中节点度的2倍),在Erdős–Rényi随机图模型中,([math]\displaystyle{ G(N,p) }[/math]) ,我们可以计算[math]\displaystyle{ \langle k \rangle }[/math] 的值,(等于[math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math]个随机点的期望值),一个随机点与其他[math]\displaystyle{ N-1 }[/math] 点相连,假设这些点两两相连的概率为[math]\displaystyle{ p }[/math],因为可以计算度的期望:[math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb{E}[\langle k \rangle]=\mathbb{E}[k]= p(N-1) }[/math].


平均最短路径长度(特征路径长度)

The average shortest path length is calculated by finding the shortest path between all pairs of nodes, and taking the average over all paths of the length thereof (the length being the number of intermediate edges contained in the path, i.e., the distance [math]\displaystyle{ d_{u,v} }[/math] between the two vertices [math]\displaystyle{ u,v }[/math] within the graph). This shows us, on average, the number of steps it takes to get from one member of the network to another. The behavior of the expected average shortest path length (that is, the ensemble average of the average shortest path length) as a function of the number of vertices [math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math] of a random network model defines whether that model exhibits the small-world effect; if it scales as [math]\displaystyle{ O(\ln N) }[/math], the model generates small-world nets. For faster-than-logarithmic growth, the model does not produce small worlds. The special case of [math]\displaystyle{ O(\ln\ln N) }[/math] is known as ultra-small world effect.

平均最短路径长度的计算方法是找到所有节点对之间的最短路径,并取其长度所有路径的平均值(其长度为路径中包含的中间边的数目,即图中两个顶点之间的距离{ displaystyle d { u,v }})。 这向我们展示了从网络中的一个成员到另一个成员所需的平均步数。 期望平均最短路径长度(即平均最短路径长度的总体均值)作为一个随机网络模型的顶点数 n } n 的函数的行为定义了该模型是否表现出小世界效应; 如果它缩放为{ displaystyle o (ln n)} ,则该模型生成小世界网。 对于比对数更快的增长,该模型不会产生小世界。 超小世界效应(ultra-small world effect)是超小世界效应的特例。


网络半径

As another means of measuring network graphs, we can define the diameter of a network as the longest of all the calculated shortest paths in a network. It is the shortest distance between the two most distant nodes in the network. In other words, once the shortest path length from every node to all other nodes is calculated, the diameter is the longest of all the calculated path lengths. The diameter is representative of the linear size of a network. If node A-B-C-D are connected, going from A->D this would be the diameter of 3 (3-hops, 3-links).模板:Fact

网络半径是另外一种测量网络图的方法,定义为网络中所有计算出来的最短路径中的最大值。它代表网络中两个最远节点之间的最短路径。或者说,只要计算出来网络中每个节点到其他所有节点的最短路径,网络半径就是这些路径中的最长路径的长度。网络半径是网络线性规模的的表示。假如网络的节点以A-B-C-D的方式连接,那么从A->D的路径长度3(3跳跃,3个连接)就是这个网络的半径。模板:Fact

聚集系数

The clustering coefficient is a measure of an "all-my-friends-know-each-other" property. This is sometimes described as the friends of my friends are my friends. More precisely, the clustering coefficient of a node is the ratio of existing links connecting a node's neighbors to each other to the maximum possible number of such links. The clustering coefficient for the entire network is the average of the clustering coefficients of all the nodes. A high clustering coefficient for a network is another indication of a small world.

聚集系数是表征“我所有的朋友都互相认识”这样一种性质的指标。有的时候表述为“我朋友的朋友也是我的朋友”。更准确地说,节点的聚类系数是该节点的相邻节点之间的现有连接数与其最大可能连接数之比。整个网络的聚集系数是所有节点的聚集系数的平均值。网络的高聚集系数是小世界的另一个指标。


The clustering coefficient of the [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math]'th node is

[math]\displaystyle{ C_i = {2e_i\over k_i{(k_i - 1)}}\,, }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ k_i }[/math] is the number of neighbours of the [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math]'th node, and [math]\displaystyle{ e_i }[/math] is the number of connections between these neighbours. The maximum possible number of connections between neighbors is, then,

[math]\displaystyle{ {\binom {k}{2}} = {{k(k-1)}\over 2}\,. }[/math]

节点[math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math]的聚集系数为

[math]\displaystyle{ C_i = {2e_i\over k_i{(k_i - 1)}}\,, }[/math]

其中 [math]\displaystyle{ k_i }[/math] 是节点 [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math] 的相邻节点数, [math]\displaystyle{ e_i }[/math] 是这些相邻节点数之间的连接数。相邻接点见最大可能的连接数为

[math]\displaystyle{ {\binom {k}{2}} = {{k(k-1)}\over 2}\,. }[/math]


From a probabalistic standpoint, the expected local clustering coefficient is the likelihood of a link existing between two arbitrary neighbors of the same node.

从概率的角度来看,局部聚集系数的期望是同一节点的任意两个相邻节点之间存在连接的可能性。

连通性

The way in which a network is connected plays a large part into how networks are analyzed and interpreted. Networks are classified in four different categories:

在分析和理解网络的过程中,网络的连接方式有着很重要的作用。网络可以分为以下四类:


  • Clique/Complete Graph: a completely connected network, where all nodes are connected to every other node. These networks are symmetric in that all nodes have in-links and out-links from all others.
  • 全连接图: 完全连接的网络,其中所有的节点之间都有连接。这样的网络是对称的,每个节点都有其他所有节点的入边和出边。


  • Giant Component: A single connected component which contains most of the nodes in the network.
  • 超大连通子图: 包含网络中大多数节点的单个连通子图。


  • Weakly Connected Component: A collection of nodes in which there exists a path from any node to any other, ignoring directionality of the edges.
  • 弱连通子图: 不考虑边的方向,这样的子图中任意两个节点之间都存在路径。


  • Strongly Connected Component: A collection of nodes in which there exists a directed path from any node to any other.
  • 强连通子图: 任意两个节点间都存在有向路径的子图。

节点中心性

Centrality indices produce rankings which seek to identify the most important nodes in a network model. Different centrality indices encode different contexts for the word "importance." The betweenness centrality, for example, considers a node highly important if it form bridges between many other nodes. The eigenvalue centrality, in contrast, considers a node highly important if many other highly important nodes link to it. Hundreds of such measures have been proposed in the literature.

中心性指标可以给出所有节点的一个排序,用来寻找网络模型中最重要的节点。在不同的“重要性”的含义下,中心性指标也可以是不同的。例如介数中心性,在它定义下,如果一个节点和其他很多节点之间都有连接,那么它就是很重要的。而本征值中心性则相反,如果某个节点有很多很重要的节点和它相连,那么它就是很重要的。文献中给出了数百种这样的中心性的定义。


Centrality indices are only accurate for identifying the most central nodes. The measures are seldom, if ever, meaningful for the remainder of network nodes. [4] [5] Also, their indications are only accurate within their assumed context for importance, and tend to "get it wrong" for other contexts.[6] For example, imagine two separate communities whose only link is an edge between the most junior member of each community. Since any transfer from one community to the other must go over this link, the two junior members will have high betweenness centrality. But, since they are junior, (presumably) they have few connections to the "important" nodes in their community, meaning their eigenvalue centrality would be quite low.

中心性指数只能准确地识别最重要的节点,这些测量很少(如果有的话)对其余的网络节点有意义。 [4] [5] 而且,这些指标只在它们所假定的重要性的含义下是准确的,而在其他重要性含义中往往是“错误的”。[6] 例如,假设有两个互相分离的团块,只在两个团块中较小成员之间存在一条边。由于从一个团块到另外一个团块的任何迁移都要通过那一条边,因此这两个较小成员就会有很高的介数中心性。但是它们是重要性较低的成员,它们和“重要的”节点之间连接较少,这就意味着它们的本征值中心性较小。


The concept of centrality in the context of static networks was extended, based on empirical and theoretical research, to dynamic centrality[7] in the context of time-dependent and temporal networks.[8][9][10]

基于经验和理论的研究,静态网络上定义的中心性的概念可以拓展到时序网络中的动态中心性。[7][8][9][10]

节点影响力

Limitations to centrality measures have led to the development of more general measures. Two examples are the accessibility, which uses the diversity of random walks to measure how accessible the rest of the network is from a given start node,[11] and the expected force, derived from the expected value of the force of infection generated by a node.[4] Both of these measures can be meaningfully computed from the structure of the network alone.

中心性度量的局限性促使了两种更一般的度量的发展。 两个例子是 可达性,它利用随机行走的多样性去度量从一个节点出发到网络其余部分的可到达性,[11] 以及期望力,从一个节点的感染力的期望得到。[4] 这两种度量都可以仅从网络的结构中有意义地计算出来。

网络模型

Network models serve as a foundation to understanding interactions within empirical complex networks. Various random graph generation models produce network structures that may be used in comparison to real-world complex networks.

网络模型是理解经验上复杂网络内相互作用的基础,各种各样的随机图生成模型生成的网络结构可与现实中的复杂网络进行比较。


Erdős–Rényi 随机图模型

文件:ER model.svg
This Erdős–Rényi model is generated with N = 4 nodes. For each edge in the complete graph formed by all N nodes, a random number is generated and compared to a given probability. If the random number is less than p, an edge is formed on the model.

The Erdős–Rényi model, named for Paul Erdős and Alfréd Rényi, is used for generating random graphs in which edges are set between nodes with equal probabilities. It can be used in the probabilistic method to prove the existence of graphs satisfying various properties, or to provide a rigorous definition of what it means for a property to hold for almost all graphs.

To generate an Erdős–Rényi model [math]\displaystyle{ G(n, p) }[/math] two parameters must be specified: the total number of nodes n and the probability p that a random pair of nodes has an edge.

Because the model is generated without bias to particular nodes, the degree distribution is binomial: for a randomly chosen vertex [math]\displaystyle{ v }[/math],

[math]\displaystyle{ P(\deg(v) = k) = {n-1\choose k} p^k (1-p)^{n-1-k}. }[/math]

In this model the clustering coefficient is 0 a.s. The behavior of [math]\displaystyle{ G(n, p) }[/math] can be broken into three regions.

Subcritical [math]\displaystyle{ n p \lt 1 }[/math]: All components are simple and very small, the largest component has size [math]\displaystyle{ |C_1| = O(\log n) }[/math];

Critical [math]\displaystyle{ n p = 1 }[/math]: [math]\displaystyle{ |C_1| = O(n^\frac{2}{3}) }[/math];

Supercritical [math]\displaystyle{ n p \gt 1 }[/math]:[math]\displaystyle{ |C_1| \approx yn }[/math] where [math]\displaystyle{ y = y(n p) }[/math] is the positive solution to the equation [math]\displaystyle{ e^{-p n y }=1-y }[/math].

The largest connected component has high complexity. All other components are simple and small [math]\displaystyle{ |C_2| = O(\log n) }[/math].


Paul ErdősAlfréd Rényi命名的Erdős–Rényi 模型用于生成随机图,它的边是等概率连接的节点的集合。随机图可以用来证明概率方法中满足某些条件的图的存在性,或者对几乎所有图给出某个性质的严格定义。

生成Erdős–Rényi 模型 [math]\displaystyle{ G(n, p) }[/math]需要给定两个参数:总结点数n和任意两个节点间有连接的概率p

由于模型是在不偏向特定节点的情况下生成的,因此度分布是二项分布:对任意的节点[math]\displaystyle{ v }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ P(\deg(v) = k) = {n-1\choose k} p^k (1-p)^{n-1-k}. }[/math]

Erdős–Rényi 模型的聚集系数是0 a.s[math]\displaystyle{ G(n, p) }[/math] 的行为可以分为三个区域:

亚临界 [math]\displaystyle{ n p \lt 1 }[/math]: 所有分量都是简单而且很小的,其中最大分量的大小 [math]\displaystyle{ |C_1| = O(\log n) }[/math];

临界 [math]\displaystyle{ n p = 1 }[/math]: [math]\displaystyle{ |C_1| = O(n^\frac{2}{3}) }[/math];

超临界 [math]\displaystyle{ n p \gt 1 }[/math]:[math]\displaystyle{ |C_1| \approx yn }[/math] 其中 [math]\displaystyle{ y = y(n p) }[/math] 是方程 [math]\displaystyle{ e^{-p n y }=1-y }[/math]的正根。

最大的连通分量复杂性最高,其他所有分量都是简单而且很小的 [math]\displaystyle{ |C_2| = O(\log n) }[/math].

配置模型

The configuration model takes a degree sequence[12][13] or degree distribution[14] (which subsequently is used to generate a degree sequence) as the input, and produces randomly connected graphs in all respects other than the degree sequence. This means that for a given choice of the degree sequence, the graph is chosen uniformly at random from the set of all graphs that comply with this degree sequence. The degree [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math] of a randomly chosen vertex is an independent and identically distributed random variable with integer values. When [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k^2] - 2 \mathbb E [k]\gt 0 }[/math], the configuration graph contains the giant connected component, which has infinite size.[13] The rest of the components have finite sizes, which can be quantified with the notion of the size distribution. The probability [math]\displaystyle{ w(n) }[/math] that a randomly sampled node is connected to a component of size [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] is given by convolution powers of the degree distribution:[15][math]\displaystyle{ w(n)=\begin{cases} \frac{\mathbb E [k]}{n-1} u_1^{*n}(n-2),& n\gt 1, \\ u(0) & n=1, \end{cases} }[/math]where [math]\displaystyle{ u(k) }[/math] denotes the degree distribution and [math]\displaystyle{ u_1(k)=\frac{(k+1)u(k+1)}{\mathbb E[k]} }[/math]. The giant component can be destroyed by randomly removing the critical fraction [math]\displaystyle{ p_c }[/math] of all edges. This process is called percolation on random networks. When the second moment of the degree distribution is finite, [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k^2]\lt \infty }[/math], this critical edge fraction is given by[16] [math]\displaystyle{ p_c=1-\frac{\mathbb E[k]}{ \mathbb E [k^2] - \mathbb E[k]} }[/math], and the average vertex-vertex distance [math]\displaystyle{ l }[/math] in the giant component scales logarithmically with the total size of the network, [math]\displaystyle{ l = O(\log N) }[/math].[14]

In the directed configuration model, the degree of a node is given by two numbers, in-degree [math]\displaystyle{ k_\text{in} }[/math] and out-degree [math]\displaystyle{ k_\text{out} }[/math], and consequently, the degree distribution is two-variate. The expected number of in-edges and out-edges coincides, so that [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k_\text{in}]=\mathbb E [k_\text{out}] }[/math]. The directed configuration model contains the giant component iff[17][math]\displaystyle{ 2\mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}] \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}k_\text{out}] - \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}] \mathbb{E}[k_\text{out}^2] - \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}] \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}^2] +\mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}^2] \mathbb{E}[k_\text{out}^2] - \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in} k_\text{out}]^2 \gt 0. }[/math]Note that [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k_\text{in}] }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k_\text{out}] }[/math] are equal and therefore interchangeable in the latter inequality. The probability that a randomly chosen vertex belongs to a component of size [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] is given by:[18][math]\displaystyle{ h_\text{in}(n)=\frac{\mathbb E[k_{in}]}{n-1} \tilde u_\text{in}^{*n}(n-2), \;n\gt 1, \; \tilde u_\text{in}=\frac{k_\text{in}+1}{\mathbb E[k_\text{in}]}\sum\limits_{k_\text{out}\geq 0}u(k_\text{in}+1,k_\text{out}), }[/math]for in-components, and

[math]\displaystyle{ h_\text{out}(n)=\frac{\mathbb E[k_\text{out}]}{n-1} \tilde u_\text{out}^{*n}(n-2), \;n\gt 1, \;\tilde u_\text{out}=\frac{k_\text{out}+1}{\mathbb E[k_\text{out}]}\sum\limits_{k_\text{in}\geq0}u(k_\text{in},k_\text{out}+1), }[/math]

for out-components.

配置模型以一个度序列[19][13] 或度分布[14] (用于生成度序列)作为输入, 生成除了度序列外各方面随机连接的图。这意味着对于给定的度序列,图是一致随机地从符合这个度序列的所有图的集合中选择的。图中任意节点的度[math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math]是一个独立同分布的随机变量,其值为整数。当 [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k^2] - 2 \mathbb E [k]\gt 0 }[/math] 时,配置图包含超大连通分量,其大小是无穷。[13] 其他分量大小是有限的,可以用大小分布来定量表示。图中任意取的一个节点和大小为[math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math]的分量相连接的概率由度分布的卷积幂给出:[20][math]\displaystyle{ w(n)=\begin{cases} \frac{\mathbb E [k]}{n-1} u_1^{*n}(n-2),& n\gt 1, \\ u(0) & n=1, \end{cases} }[/math]其中 [math]\displaystyle{ u(k) }[/math] 表示度分布且 [math]\displaystyle{ u_1(k)=\frac{(k+1)u(k+1)}{\mathbb E[k]} }[/math]。 通过随机移除临界比例[math]\displaystyle{ p_c }[/math]的边,可以摧毁超大连通分量。这个过程叫做 随机网络的渗流。当度分布的二阶矩是有限的,即[math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k^2]\lt \infty }[/math],这个边数的临界比例[21] [math]\displaystyle{ p_c=1-\frac{\mathbb E[k]}{ \mathbb E [k^2] - \mathbb E[k]} }[/math], 且超大连通分量中 顶点与顶点间的平均距离 [math]\displaystyle{ l }[/math] 的大小和网络的总结点数呈对数关系, [math]\displaystyle{ l = O(\log N) }[/math].[14]

在有向配置模型中,节点的度取决于两个量,入度[math]\displaystyle{ k_\text{in} }[/math] 和出度 [math]\displaystyle{ k_\text{out} }[/math],因此度分布是二维的。入度和出度的期望值相等,即 [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k_\text{in}]=\mathbb E [k_\text{out}] }[/math]。有向配置模型中包含超大连通分量 iff[22][math]\displaystyle{ 2\mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}] \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}k_\text{out}] - \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}] \mathbb{E}[k_\text{out}^2] - \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}] \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}^2] +\mathbb{E}[k_\text{in}^2] \mathbb{E}[k_\text{out}^2] - \mathbb{E}[k_\text{in} k_\text{out}]^2 \gt 0. }[/math]注意 [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k_\text{in}] }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb E [k_\text{out}] }[/math] 是相等的,因此在后面的不等式中二者可交换。对于图中任意一个节点,它属于大小为[math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math]的子图的概率由下式给出:[23][math]\displaystyle{ h_\text{in}(n)=\frac{\mathbb E[k_{in}]}{n-1} \tilde u_\text{in}^{*n}(n-2), \;n\gt 1, \; \tilde u_\text{in}=\frac{k_\text{in}+1}{\mathbb E[k_\text{in}]}\sum\limits_{k_\text{out}\geq 0}u(k_\text{in}+1,k_\text{out}), }[/math]对于入分量,

[math]\displaystyle{ h_\text{out}(n)=\frac{\mathbb E[k_\text{out}]}{n-1} \tilde u_\text{out}^{*n}(n-2), \;n\gt 1, \;\tilde u_\text{out}=\frac{k_\text{out}+1}{\mathbb E[k_\text{out}]}\sum\limits_{k_\text{in}\geq0}u(k_\text{in},k_\text{out}+1), }[/math]

对于出分量。

Watts–Strogatz 小世界模型

文件:Watts-Strogatz-rewire.png
The Watts and Strogatz model uses the concept of rewiring to achieve its structure. The model generator will iterate through each edge in the original lattice structure. An edge may changed its connected vertices according to a given rewiring probability. [math]\displaystyle{ \langle k\rangle = 4 }[/math] in this example.

The Watts and Strogatz model is a random graph generation model that produces graphs with small-world properties.

文件:Watts-Strogatz-rewire.png
Watts–Strogatz 模型利用重连接的概念构造小世界网络结构。模型生成器会遍历初始的规则网络的所有边,每一条边会以给定的重连接概率改变它两端的节点,例如[math]\displaystyle{ \langle k\rangle = 4 }[/math]

Watts–Strogatz 模型是一个随机图生成模型,能够产生具有小世界性质的网络。


An initial lattice structure is used to generate a Watts–Strogatz model. Each node in the network is initially linked to its [math]\displaystyle{ \langle k\rangle }[/math] closest neighbors. Another parameter is specified as the rewiring probability. Each edge has a probability [math]\displaystyle{ p }[/math] that it will be rewired to the graph as a random edge. The expected number of rewired links in the model is [math]\displaystyle{ pE = pN\langle k\rangle/2 }[/math].

Watts–Strogatz 模型在一个初始的规则网络的基础上生成,初始网络中每个节点与它的[math]\displaystyle{ \langle k\rangle }[/math]个最近邻节点连接。给定另外一个参数重连接概率,每条边以[math]\displaystyle{ p }[/math]的概率在图中随机重连。该模型中重连接边数的期望值为[math]\displaystyle{ pE = pN\langle k\rangle/2 }[/math]


As the Watts–Strogatz model begins as non-random lattice structure, it has a very high clustering coefficient along with high average path length. Each rewire is likely to create a shortcut between highly connected clusters. As the rewiring probability increases, the clustering coefficient decreases slower than the average path length. In effect, this allows the average path length of the network to decrease significantly with only slightly decreases in clustering coefficient. Higher values of p force more rewired edges, which in effect makes the Watts–Strogatz model a random network.

由于Watts–Strogatz 模型的初始网络具有非随机的规则结构,它具有很高的聚集系数和平均路径长度。每次重新连接都可能在高度连接的集群之间创建一条捷径。随着重连接概率的增加,聚集系数的下降速度慢于平均路径长度。实际上,这使得网络的平均路径长度显著降低,而聚集系数只略微降低。更高的重连接概率[math]\displaystyle{ p }[/math]会导致更多的边重新连接,这实际上使Watts Strogatz模型趋于随机网络。

Barabási–Albert (BA) 优先链接模型

The Barabási–Albert model is a random network model used to demonstrate a preferential attachment or a "rich-get-richer" effect. In this model, an edge is most likely to attach to nodes with higher degrees.The network begins with an initial network of m0 nodes. m0 ≥ 2 and the degree of each node in the initial network should be at least 1, otherwise it will always remain disconnected from the rest of the network.

BA模型是一个随机网络模型,用于说明偏好依附效应(优先链接)preferential attachment或“富人越富”效应。 在这个模型中,边最有可能附着在度数较高的节点上。 这个网络从一个 m0节点的初始网络开始。 m0 ≥ 2,初始网络中每个节点的度至少为 1,否则它将始终与网络的其余部分断开。


In the BA model, new nodes are added to the network one at a time. Each new node is connected to [math]\displaystyle{ m }[/math] existing nodes with a probability that is proportional to the number of links that the existing nodes already have. Formally, the probability pi that the new node is connected to node i is[24]

[math]\displaystyle{ p_i = \frac{k_i}{\sum_j k_j}, }[/math]

where ki is the degree of node i. Heavily linked nodes ("hubs") tend to quickly accumulate even more links, while nodes with only a few links are unlikely to be chosen as the destination for a new link. The new nodes have a "preference" to attach themselves to the already heavily linked nodes.

文件:Barabasi-albert model degree distribution.svg
The degree distribution of the BA Model, which follows a power law. In loglog scale the power law function is a straight line.[25]

The degree distribution resulting from the BA model is scale free, in particular, it is a power law of the form:

[math]\displaystyle{ P(k)\sim k^{-3} \, }[/math]

在BA模型中,每次向网络中添加一个新节点。每个新节点和已有的[math]\displaystyle{ m }[/math]个节点相连接,连接的概率正比于每个已存在节点当前的度。形式上,新节点与节点i相连的概率pi[24]

[math]\displaystyle{ p_i = \frac{k_i}{\sum_j k_j}, }[/math]

其中 ki 是节点i的度。大量连接的节点(“中心”)倾向于快速累积更多的连接,而只有少量连接的节点不太可能被选为新连接的目的地。新节点“偏好”将自己附加到已经高度连接的节点上。

文件:Barabasi-albert model degree distribution.svg
The degree distribution of the BA Model, which follows a power law. In loglog scale the power law function is a straight line.[25]

BA模型得到的度分布是无标度的,特别是它的形式是幂律:

[math]\displaystyle{ P(k)\sim k^{-3} \, }[/math]


Hubs exhibit high betweenness centrality which allows short paths to exist between nodes. As a result, the BA model tends to have very short average path lengths. The clustering coefficient of this model also tends to 0. While the diameter, D, of many models including the Erdős Rényi random graph model and several small world networks is proportional to log N, the BA model exhibits D~loglogN (ultrasmall world).[26] Note that the average path length scales with N as the diameter.

中心节点表现出很高的介数中心性,这使得节点之间存在捷径。因此,BA模型的平均路径长度往往很短。该模型的聚类系数也趋于0。 包括Erdős Rényi随机图模型和一些小世界模型在内的很多网络模半径D正比于log N,但是BA模型表现出D~loglogN(超小世界)。[27] 注意,平均路径长度随N的变化和半径相同。

中介驱动依附(MDA)模型

In the mediation-driven attachment (MDA) model in which a new node coming with [math]\displaystyle{ m }[/math] edges picks an existing connected node at random and then connects itself not with that one but with [math]\displaystyle{ m }[/math] of its neighbors chosen also at random. The probability [math]\displaystyle{ \Pi(i) }[/math] that the node [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math] of the existing node picked is

[math]\displaystyle{ \Pi(i) = \frac{k_i} N \frac{ \sum_{j=1}^{k_i} \frac 1 {k_j} }{k_i}. }[/math]

中介驱动依附(MDA)模型中,一个带有[math]\displaystyle{ m }[/math]边的新节点随机选择一个已连接的节点,然后不与那个节点连接,而是随机地与它的[math]\displaystyle{ m }[/math]个邻居连接。随机选择已连接节点的概率[math]\displaystyle{ \Pi(i) }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ \Pi(i) = \frac{k_i} N \frac{ \sum_{j=1}^{k_i} \frac 1 {k_j} }{k_i}. }[/math]


The factor [math]\displaystyle{ \frac{\sum_{j=1}^{k_i}{\frac{1}{k_j}}}{k_i} }[/math] is the inverse of the harmonic mean (IHM) of degrees of the [math]\displaystyle{ k_i }[/math] neighbors of a node [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math]. Extensive numerical investigation suggest that for an approximately [math]\displaystyle{ m\gt 14 }[/math] the mean IHM value in the large [math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math] limit becomes a constant which means [math]\displaystyle{ \Pi(i) \propto k_i }[/math]. It implies that the higher the links (degree) a node has, the higher its chance of gaining more links since they can be reached in a larger number of ways through mediators which essentially embodies the intuitive idea of rich get richer mechanism (or the preferential attachment rule of the Barabasi–Albert model). Therefore, the MDA network can be seen to follow the PA rule but in disguise.[28]

因子 [math]\displaystyle{ \frac{\sum_{j=1}^{k_i}{\frac{1}{k_j}}}{k_i} }[/math]是节点 [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ k_i }[/math]个相邻节点的度的调和平均(IHM)的逆。大量的数值研究表明,对于[math]\displaystyle{ m\gt 14 }[/math],IHM的值在大[math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math]极限下会变成常数,这意味着[math]\displaystyle{ \Pi(i) \propto k_i }[/math]。这表明一个节点的度越高,他就有更大的机会获得更多的连接,因为它们可以通过中介以更多的方式达到,这本质上体现了富人越富机制的直观思想(或者BA模型优先链接的规则)。因此,可以看出MDA网络遵循优先链接规则,但是是伪装的。[29]


However, for [math]\displaystyle{ m=1 }[/math] it describes the winner takes it all mechanism as we find that almost [math]\displaystyle{ 99\% }[/math] of the total nodes have degree one and one is super-rich in degree. As [math]\displaystyle{ m }[/math] value increases the disparity between the super rich and poor decreases and as [math]\displaystyle{ m\gt 14 }[/math] we find a transition from rich get super richer to rich get richer mechanism.

然而对于[math]\displaystyle{ m=1 }[/math],它表现了赢者通吃的机制,因为可以发现几乎[math]\displaystyle{ 99\% }[/math] 的节点的度仅为1,而某一个节点的度超级大。当[math]\displaystyle{ m }[/math]的值增加时,超级富人和穷人之间的差距减小;当[math]\displaystyle{ m\gt 14 }[/math]时,我们发现了从赢者通吃机制到富人更富机制的转变。

适应度模型

Another model where the key ingredient is the nature of the vertex has been introduced by Caldarelli et al.[30] Here a link is created between two vertices [math]\displaystyle{ i,j }[/math] with a probability given by a linking function [math]\displaystyle{ f(\eta_i,\eta_j) }[/math] of the fitnesses of the vertices involved.

Caldarelli等人引入了另一个模型,其中关键成分是顶点的性质。[31] 两个顶点[math]\displaystyle{ i,j }[/math]之间的连接概率由连接函数[math]\displaystyle{ f(\eta_i,\eta_j) }[/math] 给出,该函数是网络节点适应性的函数。


The degree of a vertex i is given by [32]

[math]\displaystyle{ k(\eta_i)=N\int_0^\infty f(\eta_i,\eta_j) \rho(\eta_j) \, d\eta_j }[/math]

节点的度由下式给出[33]

[math]\displaystyle{ k(\eta_i)=N\int_0^\infty f(\eta_i,\eta_j) \rho(\eta_j) \, d\eta_j }[/math]


If [math]\displaystyle{ k(\eta_i) }[/math] is an invertible and increasing function of [math]\displaystyle{ \eta_i }[/math], then the probability distribution [math]\displaystyle{ P(k) }[/math] is given by

[math]\displaystyle{ P(k)=\rho(\eta(k)) \cdot \eta'(k) }[/math]

如果[math]\displaystyle{ k(\eta_i) }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ \eta_i }[/math]的可逆递增函数,那么[math]\displaystyle{ P(k) }[/math]的概率分布为

[math]\displaystyle{ P(k)=\rho(\eta(k)) \cdot \eta'(k) }[/math]


As a result, if the fitnesses [math]\displaystyle{ \eta }[/math] are distributed as a power law, then also the node degree does.

因此,如果适应性[math]\displaystyle{ \eta }[/math]是幂律分布,那么节点的度遵循幂律分布。


Less intuitively with a fast decaying probability distribution as [math]\displaystyle{ \rho(\eta)=e^{-\eta} }[/math] together with a linking function of the kind

[math]\displaystyle{ f(\eta_i,\eta_j)=\Theta(\eta_i+\eta_j-Z) }[/math]

不那么直观地,一个快速衰减的概率分布函数 [math]\displaystyle{ \rho(\eta)=e^{-\eta} }[/math] 加上下面形式的连接函数

[math]\displaystyle{ f(\eta_i,\eta_j)=\Theta(\eta_i+\eta_j-Z) }[/math]


with [math]\displaystyle{ Z }[/math] a constant and [math]\displaystyle{ \Theta }[/math] the Heavyside function, we also obtain scale-free networks.

其中 [math]\displaystyle{ Z }[/math] 是常数且 [math]\displaystyle{ \Theta }[/math] 是 Heavyside函数,我们同样得到了无标度网络。


Such model has been successfully applied to describe trade between nations by using GDP as fitness for the various nodes [math]\displaystyle{ i,j }[/math] and a linking function of the kind [34] [35]

[math]\displaystyle{ \frac{\delta \eta_i\eta_j}{1+ \delta \eta_i\eta_j}. }[/math]

这样的模型在描述国际贸易上很成功,其中GDP作为不同节点的适应性 [math]\displaystyle{ i,j }[/math] ,并且连接函数是如下的形式 [36] [37]

[math]\displaystyle{ \frac{\delta \eta_i\eta_j}{1+ \delta \eta_i\eta_j}. }[/math]

网络分析

社会网络分析

Social network analysis examines the structure of relationships between social entities.[38] These entities are often persons, but may also be groups, organizations, nation states, web sites, scholarly publications.

社会网络分析考察了社会实体之间的关系结构。 [27]这些实体通常是个人,但也可能是团体、组织、民族国家、网站、学术出版物。


Since the 1970s, the empirical study of networks has played a central role in social science, and many of the mathematical and statistical tools used for studying networks have been first developed in sociology.[39] Amongst many other applications, social network analysis has been used to understand the diffusion of innovations, news and rumors. Similarly, it has been used to examine the spread of both diseases and health-related behaviors. It has also been applied to the study of markets, where it has been used to examine the role of trust in exchange relationships and of social mechanisms in setting prices. Similarly, it has been used to study recruitment into political movements and social organizations. It has also been used to conceptualize scientific disagreements as well as academic prestige. More recently, network analysis (and its close cousin traffic analysis) has gained a significant use in military intelligence, for uncovering insurgent networks of both hierarchical and leaderless nature.[40][41]In criminology, it is being used to identify influential actors in criminal gangs, offender movements, co-offending, predict criminal activities and make policies.[42]

自20世纪70年代以来,对网络的实证研究在21社会科学发挥了核心作用,许多用于研究网络的数学和统计工具最早是在社会学中发展起来的。 [28]在众多的应用中,社会网络分析被用来分析产品创新、新闻和谣言的扩散机制,同时也被用来检测疾病传播和与健康相关的行为。它也被应用于市场研究,主要用于分析信任在交换关系中的作用和社会机制在市场定价中的作用。 同样,它也可以用于研究政治运动和社会组织的招募问题,以及概念化科学分歧和学术声望。 最近,网络分析(及其相近概念流量分析)在军事情报中得到了重要的应用,用于揭露叛乱者网络层级性和无领导性的本质。 在犯罪学中,它也被用来识别犯罪团伙、犯罪运动、共同犯罪以及预测犯罪活动等,从而制定相应的政策。 [31]

动态网络分析

Dynamic network analysis examines the shifting structure of relationships among different classes of entities in complex socio-technical systems effects, and reflects social stability and changes such as the emergence of new groups, topics, and leaders.[7][8][9][10][43] Dynamic Network Analysis focuses on meta-networks composed of multiple types of nodes (entities) and multiple types of links. These entities can be highly varied.[7] Examples include people, organizations, topics, resources, tasks, events, locations, and beliefs.

动态网络分析考察了在复杂的社会技术系统影响下,不同类别的实体之间关系的转变结构,并反映了社会稳定性以及变化,如新群体、主题和领导者的涌现。 动态网络分析集中于由多种类型的节点(实体)和多种类型的链接组成的元网络。 这些实体可以非常多样化,包括人员、组织、主题、资源、任务、事件、地点甚至是信仰。


Dynamic network techniques are particularly useful for assessing trends and changes in networks over time, identification of emergent leaders, and examining the co-evolution of people and ideas.

动态网络技术是非常有用的一种方法,特别是对于评估网络随时间变化的趋势和变化,识别新兴领导者,以及检查人与想法的共同进化等方面。

生物网络分析

With the recent explosion of publicly available high throughput biological data, the analysis of molecular networks has gained significant interest. The type of analysis in this content are closely related to social network analysis, but often focusing on local patterns in the network. For example, network motifs are small subgraphs that are over-represented in the network. Activity motifs are similar over-represented patterns in the attributes of nodes and edges in the network that are over represented given the network structure. The analysis of biological networks has led to the development of network medicine, which looks at the effect of diseases in the interactome.[44]

随着近年来公开的生物学数据的爆炸性增长,分子网络的分析引起了人们极大的兴趣。对于生物网络的分析方法与社会网络分析分析密切相关,但通常更关注于网络中的局部模式。例如网络模体network motifs是指网络中一些小的子图;活动图也是指类似的被过度表征的斑图,在给定网络结构下,它们是指在网络中节点和连边的贡献度被过度表示。生物网络的分析促进了网络医学的发展,网络医学主要是从交互中观察疾病的影响。 [33]

链路分析

Link analysis is a subset of network analysis, exploring associations between objects. An example may be examining the addresses of suspects and victims, the telephone numbers they have dialed and financial transactions that they have partaken in during a given timeframe, and the familial relationships between these subjects as a part of police investigation. Link analysis here provides the crucial relationships and associations between very many objects of different types that are not apparent from isolated pieces of information. Computer-assisted or fully automatic computer-based link analysis is increasingly employed by banks and insurance agencies in fraud detection, by telecommunication operators in telecommunication network analysis, by medical sector in epidemiology and pharmacology, in law enforcement investigations, by search engines for relevance rating (and conversely by the spammers for spamdexing and by business owners for search engine optimization), and everywhere else where relationships between many objects have to be analyzed.

链路分析是网络分析的一个子集,主要是探索对象之间的联系。 例如,作为警方调查的一部分,可以分析嫌疑人和受害人的地址、他们所拨打的电话号码和他们在一段时间内参与的金融交易,以及这些对象之间的家庭关系。链路分析提供了许多不同类型的对象之间的关键关系和相互联系,而这些在孤立的信息片段中是看不出来的。计算机辅助或全自动的基于计算机的链接分析越来越多地被银行和保险机构用于欺诈检测,被电信运营商用于电信网络分析,被医疗部门用于流行病学和药理学,被用于执法调查,被用于搜索引擎用于相关性评级(反之亦然,被滥发信息者用于滥发信息,及被业务负责人优化搜索引擎) 以及被用于任何有联系对象之间的分析。


网络鲁棒性

The structural robustness of networks[45] is studied using percolation theory. When a critical fraction of nodes is removed the network becomes fragmented into small clusters. This phenomenon is called percolation[46] and it represents an order-disorder type of phase transition with critical exponents.

利用渗流理论研究了网络[34]的结构鲁棒性。 当节点的一个临界部分被移除时,网络变得支离破碎。 这种现象被称为渗流[35] ,它代表了一种从有序-无序的临界指数的相变类型。

流行病分析

The SIR model is one of the most well known algorithms on predicting the spread of global pandemics within an infectious population.

SIR模型是预测全球传染病在感染人群中传播的最著名的算法之一。

易感人群
[math]\displaystyle{ S = \beta\left(\frac 1 N \right) }[/math]

The formula above describes the "force" of infection for each susceptible unit in an infectious population, where β is equivalent to the transmission rate of said disease.

这个公式描述的是人群中每个易感单元的感染“力”,其中 β 代表的是疾病的传播概率。


To track the change of those susceptible in an infectious population:

跟踪人群中易感人数随时间的变化:

[math]\displaystyle{ \Delta S = \beta \times S {1\over N} \, \Delta t }[/math]
从感染到康复
[math]\displaystyle{ \Delta I = \mu I \, \Delta t }[/math]

Over time, the number of those infected fluctuates by: the specified rate of recovery, represented by [math]\displaystyle{ \mu }[/math] but deducted to one over the average infectious period [math]\displaystyle{ {1\over \tau} }[/math], the numbered of infectious individuals, [math]\displaystyle{ I }[/math], and the change in time, [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta t }[/math].

随着时间的推移,感染人数的波动幅度为: 以[math]\displaystyle{ \mu }[/math]来表示特定的恢复率,移除的平均感染期记为[math]\displaystyle{ {1\over \tau} }[/math],感染个体的数量 [math]\displaystyle{ I }[/math],以及时间的变化[math]\displaystyle{ \Delta t }[/math]

感染时期

Whether a population will be overcome by a pandemic, with regards to the SIR model, is dependent on the value of [math]\displaystyle{ R_0 }[/math] or the "average people infected by an infected individual."

就 SIR 模型而言,被流行病感染的人口数量,取决于数学[math]\displaystyle{ R_0 }[/math]基本传染数的数值,是指被感染个体能感染普通人群的人数。比如[math]\displaystyle{ R_0 = 3 }[/math],意味着一个感染者平均感染3个未感染者。

[math]\displaystyle{ R_0 = \beta\tau = {\beta\over\mu} }[/math]

网络连接分析

Several Web search ranking algorithms use link-based centrality metrics, including (in order of appearance) Marchiori's Hyper Search, Google's PageRank, Kleinberg's HITS algorithm, the CheiRank and TrustRank algorithms. Link analysis is also conducted in information science and communication science in order to understand and extract information from the structure of collections of web pages. For example, the analysis might be of the interlinking between politicians' web sites or blogs.

一些网络搜索排名算法使用基于链接的中心度矩阵,包括Marchiori的 Hyper Search、 Google 的 PageRank、 Kleinberg 的 HITS 算法、 CheiRank 和 TrustRank 算法。 在信息科学和传播学中也进行链接分析,以便从网页的结构中理解和提取信息。 例如,可以分析政客的网站或博客之间的相互联系。

PageRank

PageRank works by randomly picking "nodes" or websites and then with a certain probability, "randomly jumping" to other nodes. By randomly jumping to these other nodes, it helps PageRank completely traverse the network as some webpages exist on the periphery and would not as readily be assessed.

Each node, [math]\displaystyle{ x_i }[/math], has a PageRank as defined by the sum of pages [math]\displaystyle{ j }[/math] that link to [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math] times one over the outlinks or "out-degree" of [math]\displaystyle{ j }[/math] times the "importance" or PageRank of [math]\displaystyle{ j }[/math].

PageRank算法的工作原理是随机选择“节点”或网站,然后以一定的概率“随机跳转”到其他节点。通过随机跳转到这些其他节点,它帮助 PageRank算法完全遍历网络,因为可能一些不容易被跳转到的边缘网站。

[math]\displaystyle{ x_i = \sum_{j\rightarrow i}{1\over N_j}x_j^{(k)} }[/math]
随机跳转

As explained above, PageRank enlists random jumps in attempts to assign PageRank to every website on the internet. These random jumps find websites that might not be found during the normal search methodologies such as Breadth-First Search and Depth-First Search.

正如上面解释的那样,试图通过随机跳转,为互联网上的每个网站分配网页排名。通过随机跳转可以找到一些在正常的搜索方法(如广度优先搜索和深度优先搜索)中找不到的边缘网站。


In an improvement over the aforementioned formula for determining PageRank includes adding these random jump components. Without the random jumps, some pages would receive a PageRank of 0 which would not be good.

在上述公式中,该算法的主要提升是添加了随机跳转,没有这些随机跳转,一些网页的排名可能就是0,这样是非常不好的。

The first is [math]\displaystyle{ \alpha }[/math], or the probability that a random jump will occur. Contrasting is the "damping factor", or [math]\displaystyle{ 1 - \alpha }[/math].

第一个字母[math]\displaystyle{ \alpha }[/math],代表的是随机跳转发生的概率。与此相对的是阻尼因子,对应的是[math]\displaystyle{ 1 - \alpha }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ R{(p)} = {\alpha\over N} + (1 - \alpha) \sum_{j\rightarrow i} {1\over N_j} x_j^{(k)} }[/math]

Another way of looking at it: 从另一个角度来看

[math]\displaystyle{ R(A) = \sum {R_B\over B_\text{(outlinks)}} + \cdots + {R_n \over n_\text{(outlinks)}} }[/math]

中心性度量

Information about the relative importance of nodes and edges in a graph can be obtained through centrality measures, widely used in disciplines like sociology. Centrality measures are essential when a network analysis has to answer questions such as: "Which nodes in the network should be targeted to ensure that a message or information spreads to all or most nodes in the network?" or conversely, "Which nodes should be targeted to curtail the spread of a disease?". Formally established measures of centrality are degree centrality, closeness centrality, betweenness centrality, eigenvector centrality, and katz centrality. The objective of network analysis generally determines the type of centrality measure(s) to be used.[38]

关于图中节点和边的相对重要性的信息可以通过中心性度量来获得,中心性社会学等学科广泛使用。当网络分析必须回答下面问题时,中心性度量必不可少:“为了确保消息或信息传播到网络中的全部或大部分节点,网络中哪些节点应该特别关注?”或相反地,“应该控制哪些节点以限制疾病的传播?”。正式确立的中心性度量有度中心性紧密中心性中介中心性本征向量中心性Katz中心性。网络分析的目标一般地决定了所使用的中心性度量的类型。[38]


  • Degree centrality of a node in a network is the number of links (vertices) incident on the node.
  • 度中心性是指网络中与某节点相关联的连接(节点)数。


  • Closeness centrality determines how "close" a node is to other nodes in a network by measuring the sum of the shortest distances (geodesic paths) between that node and all other nodes in the network.
  • 紧密中心性决定了网络中一个节点和其他节点的“紧密”程度,通过计算该节点和网络中其他节点最短路径的和来度量。


  • Betweenness centrality determines the relative importance of a node by measuring the amount of traffic flowing through that node to other nodes in the network. This is done by measuring the fraction of paths connecting all pairs of nodes and containing the node of interest. Group Betweenness centrality measures the amount of traffic flowing through a group of nodes.[47]
  • 中介中心性 通过计算通过某节点到网络中其他节点的流量来确定该节点的相对重要性。这一点可以通过计算网络中所有节点对的路径数中包含感兴趣节点的比例来获得。一组节点的介数中心性度量流经一组节点的通信量[48]


  • Eigenvector centrality is a more sophisticated version of degree centrality where the centrality of a node not only depends on the number of links incident on the node but also the quality of those links. This quality factor is determined by the eigenvectors of the adjacency matrix of the network.
  • 本征向量中心性 是度中心性的的一个更加复杂的版本,一个节点的中心性不仅依赖于它的连接数,还取决于这些连接的质量。质量因子由网络邻接矩阵的本征向量决定。


  • Katz centrality of a node is measured by summing the geodesic paths between that node and all (reachable) nodes in the network. These paths are weighted, paths connecting the node with its immediate neighbors carry higher weights than those which connect with nodes farther away from the immediate neighbors.
  • Katz 中心性 通过计算某节点与其他可到达节点间最短路径的和来度量。这些路径是有权重的,连接节点与其近邻节点的路径的权重要高于那些与距离其近邻节点较远的节点相连接的路径。

网络内容传播

Content in a complex network can spread via two major methods: conserved spread and non-conserved spread.[49] In conserved spread, the total amount of content that enters a complex network remains constant as it passes through. The model of conserved spread can best be represented by a pitcher containing a fixed amount of water being poured into a series of funnels connected by tubes. Here, the pitcher represents the original source and the water is the content being spread. The funnels and connecting tubing represent the nodes and the connections between nodes, respectively. As the water passes from one funnel into another, the water disappears instantly from the funnel that was previously exposed to the water. In non-conserved spread, the amount of content changes as it enters and passes through a complex network. The model of non-conserved spread can best be represented by a continuously running faucet running through a series of funnels connected by tubes. Here, the amount of water from the original source is infinite. Also, any funnels that have been exposed to the water continue to experience the water even as it passes into successive funnels. The non-conserved model is the most suitable for explaining the transmission of most infectious diseases.

复杂网络中的内容主要通过两种方式传播:保守传播和非保守传播。[50] 在保守传播中,进入复杂网络的内容总量在传播时保持不变。这个保守扩散的模型可以用一个大水罐来最好地描述,这个大水罐中有一定量的水被注入一系列由管子连接的漏斗中。在这里,水罐代表原始的水源,而水则是正在传播的内容。漏斗和连接管分别表示节点和节点之间的连接。当水从一个漏斗流到另一个漏斗时,水立即从先前的漏斗中消失。在非保守传播中,内容的数量在进入和通过复杂网络时发生变化。非保守扩散模型可以用一个连续运行的水龙头通过一系列由管子连接的漏斗来表示。在这里,来自原始水源的水量是无限的。而且,任何已经暴露在水里的漏斗,即使水已经进入连续的漏斗,也会继续接触水。非保守模型最适合解释大多数传染病的传播。


The SIR model

In 1927, W. O. Kermack and A. G. McKendrick created a model in which they considered a fixed population with only three compartments, susceptible: [math]\displaystyle{ S(t) }[/math], infected, [math]\displaystyle{ I(t) }[/math], and recovered, [math]\displaystyle{ R(t) }[/math]. The compartments used for this model consist of three classes:

  • [math]\displaystyle{ S(t) }[/math] is used to represent the number of individuals not yet infected with the disease at time t, or those susceptible to the disease
  • [math]\displaystyle{ I(t) }[/math] denotes the number of individuals who have been infected with the disease and are capable of spreading the disease to those in the susceptible category
  • [math]\displaystyle{ R(t) }[/math] is the compartment used for those individuals who have been infected and then recovered from the disease. Those in this category are not able to be infected again or to transmit the infection to others.

The flow of this model may be considered as follows:

[math]\displaystyle{ \mathcal{S} \rightarrow \mathcal{I} \rightarrow \mathcal{R} }[/math]

Using a fixed population, [math]\displaystyle{ N = S(t) + I(t) + R(t) }[/math], Kermack and McKendrick derived the following equations:

[math]\displaystyle{ \begin{align} \frac{dS}{dt} & = - \beta S I \\[8pt] \frac{dI}{dt} & = \beta S I - \gamma I \\[8pt] \frac{dR}{dt} & = \gamma I \end{align} }[/math]

Several assumptions were made in the formulation of these equations: First, an individual in the population must be considered as having an equal probability as every other individual of contracting the disease with a rate of [math]\displaystyle{ \beta }[/math], which is considered the contact or infection rate of the disease. Therefore, an infected individual makes contact and is able to transmit the disease with [math]\displaystyle{ \beta N }[/math] others per unit time and the fraction of contacts by an infected with a susceptible is [math]\displaystyle{ S/N }[/math]. The number of new infections in unit time per infective then is [math]\displaystyle{ \beta N (S/N) }[/math], giving the rate of new infections (or those leaving the susceptible category) as [math]\displaystyle{ \beta N (S/N)I = \beta SI }[/math] (Brauer & Castillo-Chavez, 2001). For the second and third equations, consider the population leaving the susceptible class as equal to the number entering the infected class. However, infectives are leaving this class per unit time to enter the recovered/removed class at a rate [math]\displaystyle{ \gamma }[/math] per unit time (where [math]\displaystyle{ \gamma }[/math] represents the mean recovery rate, or [math]\displaystyle{ 1/\gamma }[/math] the mean infective period). These processes which occur simultaneously are referred to as the Law of Mass Action, a widely accepted idea that the rate of contact between two groups in a population is proportional to the size of each of the groups concerned (Daley & Gani, 2005). Finally, it is assumed that the rate of infection and recovery is much faster than the time scale of births and deaths and therefore, these factors are ignored in this model.

More can be read on this model on the Epidemic model page.

SIR 模型

1927年, W. O. Kermack 和 A. G. McKendrick 建立了一个固定人口中仅包含三种人群的模型,易感者: [math]\displaystyle{ S(t) }[/math],感染者, [math]\displaystyle{ I(t) }[/math]和康复者 [math]\displaystyle{ R(t) }[/math]。该模型中用的划分分为三类:

  • [math]\displaystyle{ S(t) }[/math] 用来表示t时刻,没有被疾病感染或者容易感染某疾病的个体数
  • [math]\displaystyle{ I(t) }[/math] 表示已经被感染的个体数,并且他们可以把疾病传播给易感人群
  • [math]\displaystyle{ R(t) }[/math] 是那部分感染过疾病但是已经康复的人。这部分个体不会再次被感染,并且也不会传染给易感染人群。

这个模型中的流可以这样表示:

[math]\displaystyle{ \mathcal{S} \rightarrow \mathcal{I} \rightarrow \mathcal{R} }[/math]

对于数量固定的群体,有[math]\displaystyle{ N = S(t) + I(t) + R(t) }[/math], 从而Kermack 和 McKendrick 得到以下方程:

[math]\displaystyle{ \begin{align} \frac{dS}{dt} & = - \beta S I \\[8pt] \frac{dI}{dt} & = \beta S I - \gamma I \\[8pt] \frac{dR}{dt} & = \gamma I \end{align} }[/math]

这些方程的成立有以下的假设:首先,人群中的个体必须被认为具有与其他个体相同的感染该疾病的概率,其比率记为[math]\displaystyle{ \beta }[/math],该比率被认为是该疾病的接触或感染率。因此,单位时间内一个感染者可以接触并感染感染[math]\displaystyle{ \beta N }[/math]个其他人,而一个感染者和易感者接触的比例为[math]\displaystyle{ S/N }[/math]。所以单位时间内单个感染者新感染的人数为 [math]\displaystyle{ \beta N (S/N) }[/math],从而得到新增感染率(易感人群减少率是 [math]\displaystyle{ \beta N (S/N)I = \beta SI }[/math] (Brauer & Castillo-Chavez, 2001)。对于第二和第三个方程,考虑到离开易感人群的数量等于进入感染者群体的数量,但是同时单位时间内会有比率为[math]\displaystyle{ \gamma }[/math]的个体从感染者变为康复者/移除者(其中[math]\displaystyle{ \gamma }[/math]表示平均康复率,或者[math]\displaystyle{ 1/\gamma }[/math]表示平均感染周期)。这些同时发生的过程被认为遵循质量作用定律,这是一个被广泛接受的观点,即群体中两组人群接触的概率正比于两组的大小(Daley & Gani, 2005)。最后,模型假定感染和康复的速率远远快于出生和死亡的时间尺度,因此这些因素可以忽略。

主方程法

A master equation can express the behaviour of an undirected growing network where, at each time step, a new node is added to the network, linked to an old node (randomly chosen and without preference). The initial network is formed by two nodes and two links between them at time [math]\displaystyle{ t = 2 }[/math], this configuration is necessary only to simplify further calculations, so at time [math]\displaystyle{ t = n }[/math] the network have [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] nodes and [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] links.

The master equation for this network is:

[math]\displaystyle{ p(k,s,t+1) = \frac 1 t p(k-1,s,t) + \left(1 - \frac 1 t \right)p(k,s,t), }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ p(k,s,t) }[/math] is the probability to have the node [math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math] with degree [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math] at time [math]\displaystyle{ t+1 }[/math], and [math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math] is the time step when this node was added to the network. Note that there are only two ways for an old node [math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math] to have [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math] links at time [math]\displaystyle{ t+1 }[/math]:

  • The node [math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math] have degree [math]\displaystyle{ k-1 }[/math] at time [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math] and will be linked by the new node with probability [math]\displaystyle{ 1/t }[/math]
  • Already has degree [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math] at time [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math] and will not be linked by the new node.

After simplifying this model, the degree distribution is [math]\displaystyle{ P(k) = 2^{-k}. }[/math][51]

Based on this growing network, an epidemic model is developed following a simple rule: Each time the new node is added and after choosing the old node to link, a decision is made: whether or not this new node will be infected. The master equation for this epidemic model is:

[math]\displaystyle{ p_r(k,s,t) = r_t \frac 1 t p_r(k-1,s,t) + \left(1 - \frac 1 t \right) p_r(k,s,t), }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ r_t }[/math] represents the decision to infect ([math]\displaystyle{ r_t = 1 }[/math]) or not ([math]\displaystyle{ r_t = 0 }[/math]). Solving this master equation, the following solution is obtained: [math]\displaystyle{ \tilde{P}_r(k) = \left(\frac r 2 \right)^k. }[/math][52]


主方程可以描述一个无向生长图的行为,每一个时间步长添加一个新节点,将其与一个已有节点相连(无偏好地随机选择)。在[math]\displaystyle{ t = 2 }[/math]时刻,网络初始化为两个节点以及它们之间的两条边,这样的初始化是为了简化之后的计算。所以在[math]\displaystyle{ t = n }[/math]时刻,网络有[math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math]个节点和[math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math]条边。

这个网络的主方程是:

[math]\displaystyle{ p(k,s,t+1) = \frac 1 t p(k-1,s,t) + \left(1 - \frac 1 t \right)p(k,s,t), }[/math]

其中 [math]\displaystyle{ p(k,s,t) }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math]时刻Jxzhou讨论)(原文中是t+1,我觉得应该是t)Jxzhou讨论)节点[math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math]的度为[math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math]的概率,[math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math]是该节点添加到网络中的时间。为了使老节点[math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ t+1 }[/math]的度为[math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math],只有两种方法:

  • 节点[math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math]的度为[math]\displaystyle{ k-1 }[/math]且增加新的边,其概率概率为[math]\displaystyle{ 1/t }[/math]
  • 节点[math]\displaystyle{ s }[/math][math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math]的度已经为[math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math],并且没有添加新的边

通过简化模型,可以得到度分布为 [math]\displaystyle{ P(k) = 2^{-k}. }[/math][51]

基于上述生长网络,可以按照以下规则生成流行性模型:每次新添节点并且选择它所连接的老节点时,需要做以下决定:这个新节点是否为感染者。流行病模型的主方程形式为:

[math]\displaystyle{ p_r(k,s,t) = r_t \frac 1 t p_r(k-1,s,t) + \left(1 - \frac 1 t \right) p_r(k,s,t), }[/math]

其中 [math]\displaystyle{ r_t }[/math] 代表感染者 ([math]\displaystyle{ r_t = 1 }[/math]) 或者非感染者 ([math]\displaystyle{ r_t = 0 }[/math])。求解这个主方程,可以得到这样的解: [math]\displaystyle{ \tilde{P}_r(k) = \left(\frac r 2 \right)^k. }[/math][52]

相依网络

An interdependent network is a system of coupled networks where nodes of one or more networks depend on nodes in other networks. Such dependencies are enhanced by the developments in modern technology. Dependencies may lead to cascading failures between the networks and a relatively small failure can lead to a catastrophic breakdown of the system. Blackouts are a fascinating demonstration of the important role played by the dependencies between networks. A recent study developed a framework to study the cascading failures in an interdependent networks system.[53][54]

相依网络是一个耦合的网路系统,其中一个或多个网络的节点依赖于其他网络中的节点。这样的依赖性在现代科技的发展中被强化。依赖关系可能导致网络之间的级联故障,一个相对较小的故障可能导致系统的灾难性崩溃。最近的一项研究开发了一个框架来研究相互依赖的网络系统中的级联故障。[55][56]

多层网络

Multilayer networks are networks with multiple kinds of relations. Attempts to model real-world systems as multidimensional networks have been used in various fields such as social network analysis, economics, history, urban and international transport, ecology, psychology, medicine, biology, commerce, climatology, physics, computational neuroscience, operations management, and finance.

多层网络是包含多种关系的网络。对现实系统中多维网络建模的尝试在很多领域都有用到,例如社会网络分析、经济学、历史、城市和国际交通、生态学、心理学、医学、生物学、商业、气候学、物理学、计算神经科学、运营管理和金融。

网络优化

Network problems that involve finding an optimal way of doing something are studied under the name of combinatorial optimization. Examples include network flow, shortest path problem, transport problem, transshipment problem, location problem, matching problem, assignment problem, packing problem, routing problem, Critical Path Analysis and PERT (Program Evaluation & Review Technique).

关于寻找某些事情最优解的网络问题属于组合优化的范畴。例如[流网络|网络流]]、最短路径问题运输问题转运问题选址问题匹配问题分配问题装箱问题路由问题关键路径分析PERT(规划评估与审查技术)。
