DOI: 10.1007/s00285-018-1247-5
Abstract: This paper investigates the effects of the community structure of a network on the spread of an epidemic. To this end, we first establish a susceptible–infected–recovered (SIR) model in a two-community network with an arbitrary… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00453-020-00729-z
Abstract: Large real-world networks typically follow a power-law degree distribution. To study such networks, numerous random graph models have been proposed. However, real-world networks are not drawn at random. Therefore, Brach et al. (27th symposium on discrete… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/15326349.2019.1624574
Abstract: Abstract We deal with a general preferential attachment graph model with multiple type edges. The types are chosen randomly, in a way that depends on the evolution of the graph. In the N-type case, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.106.044305
Abstract: We present analytical results for the emerging structure of networks that evolve via a combination of growth (by node addition and random attachment) and contraction (by random node deletion). To this end we consider a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.98.022311
Abstract: When the network is reconstructed, two types of errors can occur: false positive and false negative errors about the presence or absence of links. In this paper, the influence of these two errors on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lcomm.2025.3595543
Abstract: Existing Luby transform (LT) codes struggle to maintain reliability in latency-bounded industrial systems. To address this, we propose an imitation learning and reinforcement learning based degree distribution optimization (ILRL-DO) method. Initially, imitation learning (IL) pretrains… read more here.
