In this work, we analyze gossip spreading on weighted networks. We try to define a new metric to classify weighted complex networks using our model. The model proposed here is based on the gossip spreading model introduced by Lind et al. on unweighted networks. The new metric is based on gossip...

Community structure detection is widely accepted as a means of elucidating the functional properties of complex networks. The problem statement is ever evolving, with the aim of developing more flexible and realistic modeling procedures. For example, a first step in developing a more informative...

This paper studies the statistical properties of the web of import-export relationships among world countries using a weighted-network approach. We analyze how the distributions of the most important network statistics measuring connectivity, assortativity, clustering and centrality have...

In a weighted spatial network, as specified by an exchange matrix, the variances of the spatial values are inversely proportional to the size of the regions. Spatial values are no more exchangeable under independence, thus weakening the rationale for ordinary permutation and bootstrap tests of...

Complex networks theory allows researchers to deal with systems characterised by uncertainty and unpredictability. It also enables investigating interactions between transport networks and their topology. Recently it has been used to analyse socio-economic processes in urban, regional, and...
