Various factors are believed to govern the selection of references in citation networks, but a precise, quantitative determination of their importance has remained elusive. In this paper, we show that three factors can account for the referencing pattern of citation networks for two topics,...

The potential for associative recall of diluted neuronal networks is investigated with respect to several biologically relevant configurations, more specifically the position of the cells along the input space and the spatial distribution of their connections. First, we put the asymmetric...

Specific choices about how to represent complex networks can have a substantial impact on the execution time required for the respective construction and analysis of those structures. In this work we report a comparison of the effects of representing complex networks statically by adjacency...
