However, important roles in social, technological, and biological systems. the data of network structure is always incomplete or even However, the observable network structures in real cases are unavailable either because measuring binary links is costly or often incomplete or unavailable due to the measurement errors or private protection issues.

In this paper, we tackle the problem by utilizing tries to infer the lost links in network structure according to time series data generated by network dynamics.

For the network reconstruction problem, the GGN framework includes two modules: the dynamics learner cannot solve the inference problem under the condition that and the network generator. For the network completion problem, the network contains unobservable nodes. In real cases, we GGN adds a new module called the States Learner to infer can either obtain nodes information of the only partial network missing parts of the network.

Da Xu et al regard the complete work dynamics such that the errors between the observed time network as the growth of the partial network [25], then they series and the generated time series according to the candidate train the GCN to learn the growing process with the partially network structure and dynamical rules is minimized. Both observed network and generalized to the complete unknown problems are solved in the same framework called Gumbel- network structure.

Gumbel softmax similar graphs for training and applied the trained generating sampling is a technique to simulate the sampling process model to complete the missing information [16]. All of these with a differentiable computation process. Equipped with this network completion methods depend on a partially observed technique, we can train a network generator with a gradient network structure because they try to discover the latent descent method.

We focus on two different types of collaboration networks—(i) academic collaboration networks (co- authorship); and, (ii) disaster collaboration networks. Some studies used collaboration networks to study network dynamics (Barabási & Albert, 1999; Barabási et al., 2002; Newman, 2001) to reveal the existence of specific network topologies (structure) and preferential attachment as a structuring factor (Milojevi 2010). The academic co-authorship network represents a prototype of complex evolving networks (Barabási et al., 2002). Moreover, a disaster collaboration network presents a highly dynamic complex network, which evolves over time during the response and recovery phases

  • Dynamics on Networks Arxiv:1708.01647V1 [Physics.Soc
    Dynamics on networks Liubov Tupikina August 8, 2017 1 Introduction . Recently an extensive and detailed graph theoretical analysis of networks with applications to neurobiology, climate and power grids has been performed, and has been particularly discussed in Chapters II and III. A particular example of a complex system is the Earth evolution which cannot be described without a "human factor" anymore [Sch98, MRS+16]. Such a system needs to be considered in coexistence with other components. Recently the concept of planetary boundaries [SBD+15] has been introduced, where different components of the Earth system are considered together in co-called co-evolution. Co-evolutionary modeling approaches aim at incorporating the complex dynamics of society into the description of natural systems in order to obtain a more holistic picture of the world-earth system. As our world becomes increasingly connected through the use of communication and transportation systems, an understanding of how these connecting networks evolve in time plays an important role. As an attempt to understand some mechanisms of the complex systems, models on networks with dynamically changing parameters (graph dynamical systems or dynamical network models) have been mathematically described in [MM15] and later on further designed in [ADGK+08, LSD+10]. The nodes of a dynamical network (DN) are individual dynamical systems which are coupled through static links. Moreover the network topology can evolve dynamically in time. As the result, combination of dynamics on networks and dynamics of networks yields a particular class of the dynamical networks, so-called adaptive network models [GS09]. Another class of dynamical networks are discrete state network models, where a state of each node is defined by a discrete function evolving in time.

CELLULAR NEURAL NETWORKS WITH SWITCHING CONNECTIONS by MALCOM DEVOE Under the Direction of Dr. Igor Belykh ABSTRACT Artificial neural networks are widely used for parallel processing of data analysis and visual in- formation. The most prominent example of artificial neural networks is a cellular neural network (CNN), composed from two-dimensional arrays of simple first-order dynamical systems (“cells”) that are interconnected by wires. The information, to be processed by a CNN, repre- sents the initial state of the network, and the parallel information processing is performed by converging to one of the stable spatial equilibrium states of the multi-stable CNN. This thesis studies a specific type of CNNs designed to perform the winner-take-all function of finding the largest among the n numbers, using the network dynamics. In a wider context, this amounts to automatically detecting a target spot in the given visual picture.

  • Complex Network Dynamics in Economics
    Laurens Bogaardt - Complex Network Dynamics in Economics Laurens Bogaardt University College Utrecht [email protected] INT 403: Complex Network Dynamics 31-05-2010 On Complex Network Dynamics in Economics or how Network Structures evolve within the Meso-level Abstract There is a recurring problem in economics and the models it uses; real world data is rarely in agreement with the predictions of the economic theory. There might be a need for a new look on the economy, taking away some of the unrealistic assumptions of traditional economics. This research focuses on the evolution of networks in economics. The network approach may provide an answer to some fundamental questions in economic theory. In this paper, it is suggested that the appropriate level of network analysis is the meso-level. Furthermore, it is shown that there are several different methods to model the growth in nodes and edges, such as preferential attachment or neighbour attachment. A suggestion is also made to include edge removal in these systems. The use of networks will be justified by simple arguments; at the same time, it is shown that the complex behaviour of the economy can be explained using such a simple starting point.

Network Dynamics of a Tokenized Financial Ecosystem Shahar Somin, Goren Gordon, Alex Pentland, Erez Shmueli, Yaniv Altshuler Published on: Apr 30, 2020 Works in Progress • Building the New Economy 9. Network Dynamics of a Tokenized Financial Ecosystem 1. Introduction Blockchain technology, which until recently has been known mostly in small technological circles, is bursting throughout the globe. Recent years have witnessed a growing number of cryptographic tokens that are being introduced by researchers, private sector companies and NGOs. The expanding adoption of such Blockchain based cryptocurrencies gives birth to a new kind of rising economy which in turn presents a new type of challenges for policy makers and regulators, due to its potential economic and social impact that could fundamentally alter traditional financial and social structures. Launched in July 2015 [1], the Ethereum Blockchain is a public ledger that keeps records of all Ethereum related transactions. The ability of the Ethereum Blockchain to store not only ownership, similarly to Bitcoin, but also execution code, in the form of ”Smart Contracts”, has recently led to the creation of a large number of new types of ”tokens”, based on the Ethereum ERC20 protocol. These tokens are ”minted” by a variety of players, for a variety of reasons, having all of their transactions carried out by their corresponding Smart Contracts, publicly accessible on the Ethereum Blockchain. As a result, the ERC20 ecosystem constitutes one of the most fascinating examples for highly varied financial ecosystems, whose entire monetary activity is publicly available from its inception. Our work presents an analysis of the dynamical properties of the ERC20 protocol compliant crypto- coins’ trading data, using a network theory prism.

Here we develop a self-consistent theory of dynamical perturbations in complex systems, allowing us to systematically separate the contribution of the network topology and dynamics. The formalism covers a broad range of steady-state dynamical processes and offers testable predictions regarding the system’s response to perturbations and the development of correlations. It predicts several distinct universality classes whose characteristics can be derived directly from the continuum equation governing the system’s dynamics and which are validated on several canonical network-based dynamical systems, from biochemical dynamics to epidemic spreading. Finally, we collect experimental data pertaining to social and biological systems, demonstrating that we can accurately uncover their universality class even in the absence of an appropriate continuum theory that governs the system’s dynamics. espite the profound diversity in the scale and purpose of the probability of infection23–25; biochemical dynamics (B), in 26–29 networks observed in nature and technology, their topology which xi represents the concentration of a reactant ; birth– 30–32 Dshares several highly reproducible and often universal death processes (BD), in which xi represents the population 1–8 characteristics : many real networks exhibit the small-world at site i; and regulatory dynamics (R), in which xi is the property9, are scale-free10, develop distinct community structure11, expression level of a gene33,34.

However, the apparatus for transcription and translation of DNA information into protein function has been studied since the 1950s, leading to the “Central Dogma” of Molecular Biology [25, 26]. By that time Schroedinger in his famous 1944 work on life [128] had already alluded to the possibility of an executing role (i.e., more than an information template role) for his “aperiodic crystal” at the foundation of life.
