“…In addition, all of these graphs can be directed/undirected (when the matrix A is asymmetric/symmetric), or weighted/unweighted (where the elements A ij can have weights encoding different properties). Such modeling choices can strongly influence the conclusions drawn from network analyses (Klamt et al, 2009;Bernal and Daza, 2011;Beguerisse-Díaz et al, 2018). For example, the existence of power law degree distributions (Jeong et al, 2000) and the small-world property in metabolism (Wagner and Fell, 2001), two cornerstone concepts in network science, have been disputed (Arita, 2004;Lima-Mendez and van Helden, 2009) and attributed to specific ways of constructing the network graph (Montañez et al, 2010;Bernal and Daza, 2011).…”
