对 Crane 与 Xu《网络潜在生长过程的根与社区推断》的致谢与讨论AI 解读

We commend the authors on an illuminating article which significantly extends the state of the art in network archaeology. Notably, whereas most other literature in the area has provided methods for root inference which are theoretically grounded only in the case of random trees, the techniques in this paper have been designed to model nontree-structured networks, as well. This has important practical implications, as many real-world networks contain one or more cycles. The…

感染图的置换检验AI 解读

We formulate and analyze a novel hypothesis testing problem for inferring the edge structure of an infection graph. In our model, a disease spreads over a network via contagion or random infection, where the times between successive contagion events are independent exponential random variables with unknown rate parameters. A subset of nodes is also censored uniformly at random. Given the observed infection statuses of nodes in the network, the goal is to determine the…

加权随机区块模型中社群估计的最优速率AI 解读

Community identification in a network is an important problem in fields such as social science, neuroscience and genetics. Over the past decade, stochastic block models (SBMs) have emerged as a popular statistical framework for this problem. However, SBMs have an important limitation in that they are suited only for networks with unweighted edges; in various scientific applications, disregarding the edge weights may result in a loss of valuable information. We study a…
