We investigated the grouping coefficients of industrial sectors in the stock network based on stock data for the U.S. and Korean stock markets. These complex networks were modeled using the minimal spanning tree (MST) method. We propose a novel approach based on the shortest path length (SPL)...

We evaluate the degree of business cycle interdependence in the global economic network, focusing on the hypothesis that emergent market (EM) economies have decoupled from advanced economies in the recent period of globalization. We employ a novel methodological approach to the study of business...

We examined the time series properties of the foreign exchange market for 1990–2008 in relation to the history of the currency crises using the minimum spanning tree (MST) approach and made several meaningful observations about the MST of currencies. First, around currency crises, the mean...

This work employs various techniques in order to filter random noise from the information provided by minimum spanning trees obtained from the correlation matrices of international stock market indices prior to and during times of crisis. The first technique establishes a threshold above which...

This paper investigates the topological properties of the Brazilian term structure of interest rates network. We build the minimum spanning tree (MST), which is based on the concept of ultrametricity, using the correlation matrix for interest rates of different maturities. We show that the...

A general approach to measure statistical uncertainty of different filtration techniques for market network analysis is proposed. Two measures of statistical uncertainty are introduced and discussed. One is based on conditional risk for multiple decision statistical procedures and another one is...

We report the results of an investigation of the properties of the networks formed by the cross-correlations of the daily and weekly index changes of 143 stock market indices from 59 different countries. Analysis of the asset graphs, minimum spanning trees (MST) and planar maximally filtered...

A time series is remapped onto an entropy concept, based on the Theil index. The Manhattan distance between these surrogate series is calculated, and contrasted to the usual correlation distance measure. The idea is applied to several Gross Domestic Product (relative increments) of rich...

A method for extracting information carrying eigenvalues of the correlation matrix is presented based on the topological transformation of the manifold defined by the data matrix itself. The transformation, performed with the use of the minimum spanning tree and the barycentric transformation,...

A simple deterministic algorithm for community detection is provided by using two rounds of minimum spanning trees. By comparing the first round minimum spanning tree (1st-MST) with the second round spanning tree (2nd-MST) of the network, communities are detected and their overlapping nodes are...
