This measure is an order parameter (a dimensionless number between 0 and 1). Comparison is made to other approaches to module-discovery and to quantifying network modularity using Monte Carlo generated Erdos-like modular networks. Finally, the Network Information Bottleneck (NIB) algorithm is applied to a number of real world networks, including the "social" network of coauthors at the APS March Meeting 2004. | Source: | arXiv, q-bio.QM/0411033 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
