Unbiased evaluation of ranking metrics reveals consistent performance in science and technology citation data

Xu, Shuqi ; Mariani, Manuel Sebastian ; Lü, Linyuan ; Medo, Matúš

In: Journal of Informetrics, 2020, vol. 14, no. 1, p. 101005

Despite the increasing use of citation-based metrics for research evaluation purposes, we do not know yet which metrics best deliver on their promise to gauge the significance of a scientific paper or a patent. We assess 17 network-based metrics by their ability to identify milestone papers and patents in three large citation datasets. We find that traditional information-retrieval evaluation...

Computational network biology: Data, models, and applications

Liu, Chuang ; Ma, Yifang ; Zhao, Jing ; Nussinov, Ruth ; Zhang, Yi-Cheng ; Cheng, Feixiong ; Zhang, Zi-Ke

In: Physics Reports, 2020, vol. 846, p. 1–66

Biological entities are involved in intricate and complex interactions, in which uncovering the biological information from the network concepts are of great significance. Benefiting from the advances of network science and high-throughput biomedical technologies, studying the biological systems from network biology has attracted much attention in recent years, and networks have long been...

Supply and demand law under variable information

Yuan, Guanghui ; Han, Jingti ; Zhou, Lei ; Liang, Hejun ; Zhang, Yi-Cheng

In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2019, vol. 536, p. 121004

When the product quality is limited and the information capability is variable, we propose the enterprise enhances corporate profits by changing the relationship between market demand and external resources. We assume that the information capacity can be changed through the input of external resources. In this paper, we present a research agenda that empowers external resources to transform...

Predicting financial extremes based on weighted visual graph of major stock indices

Chen, Dong-Rui ; Liu, Chuang ; Zhang, Yi-Cheng ; Zhang, Zi-Ke

In: Complexity, 2019, vol. 2019, p. 1–17

Understanding and predicting extreme turning points in the financial market, such as financial bubbles and crashes, has attracted much attention in recent years. Experimental observations of the superexponential increase of prices before crashes indicate the predictability of financial extremes. In this study, we aim to forecast extreme events in the stock market using 19-year time-series...

The long-term impact of ranking algorithms in growing networks

Zhang, Shilun ; Medo, Matúš ; Lü, Linyuan ; Mariani, Manuel Sebastian

In: Information Sciences, 2019, vol. 488, p. 257–271

When users search online for content, they are constantly exposed to rankings. For example, web search results are presented as a ranking of relevant websites, and online bookstores often show us lists of best-selling books. While popularity-based ranking algorithms (like Google’s PageRank) have been extensively studied in previous works, we still lack a clear understanding of their...

Embodied semantics in a second language: critical review and clinical implications

Monaco, Elisa ; Jost, Lea B. ; Gygax, Pascal M. ; Annoni, Jean-Marie

In: Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019, vol. 13, p. -

The role of the sensorimotor system in second language (L2) semantic processing as well as its clinical implications for bilingual patients has hitherto been neglected. We offer an overview of the issues at stake in this under-investigated field, presenting the theoretical and clinical relevance of studying L2 embodiment and reviewing the few studies on this topic. We highlight that (a) the...

Link prediction in bipartite nested networks

Medo, Matúš ; Mariani, Manuel Sebastian ; Lü, Linyuan

In: Entropy, 2018, vol. 20, no. 10, p. 777

Real networks typically studied in various research fields—ecology and economic complexity, for example—often exhibit a nested topology, which means that the neighborhoods of high-degree nodes tend to include the neighborhoods of low-degree nodes. Focusing on nested networks, we study the problem of link prediction in complex networks, which aims at identifying likely candidates for...

Structure-oriented prediction in complex networks

Ren, Zhuo-Ming ; Zeng, An ; Zhang, Yi-Cheng

In: Physics Reports, 2018, vol. 750, p. 1–51

Complex systems are extremely hard to predict due to its highly nonlinear interactions and rich emergent properties. Thanks to the rapid development of network science, our understanding of the structure of real complex systems and the dynamics on them has been remarkably deepened, which meanwhile largely stimulates the growth of effective prediction approaches on these systems. In this...
