Abstract:In this paper, we present a framework to compare the differences in the occupation probabilities of two random walk processes, which can be generated by modifications of the network or the transition probabilities between the nodes of the same network. We explore a dissimilarity measure defined in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the normalized Laplacian of each process. This formalism is implemented to examine differences in the diffusive dynamics described by circulant matrices, the effect of new… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
