The complexity of many biological, social and technological systems stems from the richness
of the interactions among their units. Over the past decades, a variety of complex systems …

It is increasingly recognized that a key component of successful infection control efforts is
understanding the complex, two-way interaction between disease dynamics and human …

Contact patterns in populations fundamentally influence the spread of infectious diseases.
Current mathematical methods for epidemiological forecasting on networks largely assume …

It is shown how to construct a clique graph in which properties of cliques of a fixed order in a
given graph are represented by vertices in a weighted graph. Various definitions and …

Heavy-tailed distributions of meme popularity occur naturally in a model of meme diffusion
on social networks. Competition between multiple memes for the limited resource of user …

The reproductive ratio, R 0, is a fundamental quantity in epidemiology, which determines the
initial increase in an infectious disease in a susceptible host population. In most epidemic …

Human activities increasingly take place in online environments, providing novel
opportunities for relating individual behaviors to population-level outcomes. In this paper, we …

We introduce a minimal generative model for densifying networks in which a new node
attaches to a randomly selected target node and also to each of its neighbors with …

With the global electricity system reform, the Real-time pricing scheme, a representative of
the price-based demand response program, is usually adopted as the default rate for …

Understanding the structure and evolution of web-based user-item bipartite networks is an
important task since they play a fundamental role in online information filtering. In this paper …
