Journal ArticleDOI
Structural measures for multiplex networks.
TL;DR: This paper presents a general framework to describe and study multiplex networks, whose links are either unweighted or weighted, and proposes a series of measures to characterize the multiplexicity of the systems in terms of basic node and link properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural reducibility of multilayer networks
TL;DR: This work introduces a method based on quantum theory to reduce the number of layers to a minimum while maximizing the distinguishability between the multilayer network and the corresponding aggregated graph.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extending the definition of modularity to directed graphs with overlapping communities
TL;DR: This paper starts from the definition of a modularity function, given by Newman to evaluate the goodness of network community decompositions, and extends it to the more general case of directed graphs with overlapping community structures.
MonographDOI
Complex Networks: Principles, Methods and Applications
TL;DR: This textbook presents a detailed overview of the new theory and methods of network science, covering algorithms for graph exploration, node ranking and network generation, among the others, and allows students to experiment with network models and real-world data sets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elementary processes governing the evolution of road networks
TL;DR: The empirical analysis of a unique data set regarding almost 200 years of evolution of the road network in a large area located north of Milan (Italy) finds that urbanisation is characterised by the homogenisation of cell shapes, and by the stability throughout time of high–centrality roads which constitute the backbone of the urban structure.
