The$k$-complex contagionmodel is a social contagion model which describes the diffusion of behaviors in networks where the successful adoption of a behavior requires influence from... View full abstract»

• ### Moment-Based Spectral Analysis of Random Graphs with Given Expected Degrees

Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):215 - 228
| | PDF (505 KB) | HTML

We analyze the eigenvalues of a random graph ensemble, proposed by Chung and Lu, in which a given sequence ofexpecteddegrees, denoted by$\overline{w}_n = (w^{(n)}_1,\ldots, w^{(n)}_n)$... View full abstract»

• ### Network Maximal Correlation

Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):229 - 247
Cited by:  Papers (2)
| | PDF (1310 KB) | HTML

We introduce Network Maximal Correlation (NMC) as a multivariate measure of nonlinear association among random variables. NMC is defined via an optimization that infers transformations of variables by maximizing aggregate inner products between transformed variables. For finite discrete and jointly Gaussian random variables, we characterize a solution of the NMC optimization using basis expansion ... View full abstract»

• ### Stochastic Subgradient Algorithms for Strongly Convex Optimization Over Distributed Networks

Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):248 - 260
Cited by:  Papers (1)
| | PDF (1373 KB) | HTML

We study diffusion and consensus based optimization of a sum of unknown convex objective functions over distributed networks. The only access to these functions is through stochastic gradient oracles, each of which is only available at a different node; and a limited number of gradient oracle calls is allowed at each node. In this framework, we introduce a convex optimization algorithm based on st... View full abstract»

## Aims & Scope

The IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering is committed to timely publishing of peer-reviewed technical articles that deal with the theory and applications of network science and the interconnections among the elements in a system that form a network. In particular, the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering publishes articles on understanding, prediction, and control of structures and behaviors of networks at the fundamental level.
