Evaluation of the Copycat Model for Predicting Complex Network Growth

Information theory perspective on network robustness

“…In this work, we propose a measure for network robustness based on the Jensen-Shannon divergence, an Information Theory quantifier that already showed to be very effective in measuring small topological changes in a network (Carpi et al, 2011;Schieber and Ravetti, 2013;Schieber et al, 2014). This method considers failures occurring in a temporal sequence capturing, in some sense, the dynamics of the role of the remaining links after each single failure.…”
