Abstract
A seed growth algorithm based on a local connectivity rule for cluster formation in complex networks is introduced. That accompanies with the cluster normalization algorithm, the parameter determination process, and the pseudocluster inference process, forming the coherent algorithms and formalizing the categories within the realm of the cluster space. The prime clusters can be extracted from the cluster space, so that the overlapping complexity of clusters is confined to the prime clusters. To decide unequivocally whether the coherent algorithms are efficient, we have to simulate on the overlapping stochastic block networks. Our simulation shows that the dice coefficient of the prime cluster corresponding to the overlapping target cluster is 0.978± 0.024 on average. It decodes the underlying meaning that the coherent algorithms can efficiently search out the prime clusters containing almost the same nodes as the overlapping clusters. It provides a firm foundation for a simulation on the
Caenorhabditis elegans
neuronal network, unraveling the neurons DD04, PDB, VA08, VB06, VB07, VD07, and VD08 lying in the major overlap of clusters, among them the ablation of DD04 and PDB in biological experiments has shown to result in a pronounced loss of controllability of motor behavior.
期刊介绍:
The proposed journal, called the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering (TNSE), 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. The types of networks covered include physical or engineered networks, information networks, biological networks, semantic networks, economic networks, social networks, and ecological networks. Aimed at discovering common principles that govern network structures, network functionalities and behaviors of networks, the journal seeks articles on understanding, prediction, and control of structures and behaviors of networks. Another trans-disciplinary focus of the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering is the interactions between and co-evolution of different genres of networks.
