Sayan Banerjee’s contribution to the Discussion of ‘Root and community inference on the latent growth process of a network’ by Crane and Xu
Sayan Banerjee 对《网络潜在生长过程的根与社区推断》的讨论
I congratulate the authors on their elegant and computationally tractable approach to inference problems in network archaeology. This is one of the few papers which rigorously analyses inference for noisy temporal networks. The key idea is to compute the distribution of the possible arrival orders of vertices given an unlabelled network realization (online detection) and construct the confidence set for the root by sorting vertices according to their probability of arriving…
