We provide a framework for modeling social network formation through conditional
multinomial logit models from discrete choice and random utility theory, in which each new …

Complex network growth across diverse fields of science is hypothesized to be driven in the
main by a combination of preferential attachment and node fitness processes. For …

The mechanisms of network generation have undergone extensive analysis and found
broad applications in various real‐world scenarios. Among the fruitful literature on network …

The global rise of COVID-19 health risk has triggered the related misinformation infodemic.
We present the first analysis of COVID-19 misinformation networks and determine few of its …

Purpose This study aims to not only develop measurements of preferential attachment and
homophily mechanisms based on their definitions and network theory but also examine the …

This article presents a brief overview of the main network models that use growth and
preferential attachment. We start with the classical model proposed by Barabási and Albert …

This research analyzes the evolution of technological leadership in the global patents
network, focusing on the roles of the US and China from 2001 to 2021. The US's central …

Every network scientist knows that preferential attachment combines with growth to produce
networks with power-law in-degree distributions. How, then, is it possible for the network of …

Collaboration networks have primarily been studied in developed economies. In this paper,
we present a comprehensive analysis of co-inventor networks in a small but thriving OECD …
