Proposes an unsupervised graph neural network for entire graph representation.
Interbank markets are often characterised in terms of a core-periphery network structure, with a highly interconnected core of banks holding the market together, and a periphery of banks connected mostly to the core but not internally. This paradigm has recently been challenged for short time scales, where interbank ma…
The study shows portfolios based on core-periphery stock structure outperform traditional strategies.
Paper introduces a core-periphery model for identifying informative network structures.

CrossWalk enhances fairness in graph algorithms by biasing random walks.
A growing number of systems are represented as networks whose architecture conveys significant information and determines many of their properties. Examples of network architecture include modular, bipartite, and core-periphery structures. However inferring the network structure is a non trivial task and can depend som…
Recent research on Bitcoin Transaction Networks reveals a growing, sparse, and core-periphery structure.
We consider a banking network represented by a system of stochastic differential equations coupled by their drift. We assume a core-periphery structure, and that the banks in the core hold a bubbly asset. The banks in the periphery have not direct access to the bubble, but can take initially advantage from its increase…
Study examines financial market structure changes during the COVID-19 crash using a novel MI approach.
Model analyzes optimal interbank networks during liquidity shocks, revealing core-periphery structures and co-investment requirements.
Study of Bitcoin User Network structure over 8 years.
Many approaches have been proposed to discover clusters within networks. Community finding field encompasses approaches which try to discover clusters where nodes are tightly related within them but loosely related with nodes of other clusters. However, a community network configuration is not the only possible latent …
Study finds Aave token network has core-periphery structure, with high decentralization predicting better returns.
Spectral denoising recovers meaningful network structure from noisy financial correlations.
Mesoscopic pattern extraction (MPE) is the problem of finding a partition of the nodes of a complex network that maximizes some objective function. Many well-known network inference problems fall in this category, including, for instance, community detection, core-periphery identification, and imperfect graph coloring.…
We contribute to the understanding of how systemic risk arises in a network of credit-interlinked agents. Motivated by empirical studies we formulate a network model which, despite its simplicity, depicts the nature of interbank markets better than a homogeneous model. The components of a vector Ornstein-Uhlenbeck proc…
Clustering is concerned with coherently grouping observations without any explicit concept of true groupings. Spectral graph clustering - clustering the vertices of a graph based on their spectral embedding - is commonly approached via K-means (or, more generally, Gaussian mixture model) clustering composed with either…
We show that the emergence of systemic risk in complex systems can be understood from the evolution of functional networks representing interactions inferred from fluctuation correlations between macroscopic observables. Specifically, we analyze the long-term collective dynamics of the New York Stock Exchange between 1…
We report a data mining pipeline and subsequent analysis to understand the core periphery power structure created in three national newspapers in Bangladesh, as depicted by statements made by people appearing in news. Statements made by one actor about another actor can be considered a form of public conversation. Name…
Economies grow by upgrading the type of products they produce and export. The technology, capital, institutions and skills needed to make such new products are more easily adapted from some products than others. We study the network of relatedness between products, or product space, finding that most upscale products a…
Lumbermark clusters data robustly, slicing limbs of mutual reachability trees.
The sharp decline in Ireland's economic performance in recent years has coincided with a recent fall in asylum applications. Simultaneously countries such as Switzerland are seeing increases in asylum numbers with evidence for greater numbers of Nigerian applicants, a group that have for some time been the largest nati…
We use methods from network science to analyze corruption risk in a large administrative dataset of over 4 million public procurement contracts from European Union member states covering the years 2008-2016. By mapping procurement markets as bipartite networks of issuers and winners of contracts we can visualize and de…
In complex systems like financial market, risk tolerance of individuals is crucial for system resilience.The single-security price limit, designed as risk tolerance to protect investors by avoiding sharp price fluctuation, is blamed for feeding market panic in times of crash.The relationship between the critical market…
Unified framework detects dynamic community structure in brain networks across individuals.
We demonstrate the existence of an empirical linkage between the nominal financial networks and the underlying economic fundamentals across countries. We construct the nominal return correlation networks from daily data to encapsulate sector-level dynamics and figure the relative importance of the sectors in the nomina…
Transportation systems can be conceptualized as an instrument of spreading people and resources over the territory, playing an important role in developing sustainable cities. The current rationale of transport provision is based on population demand, disregarding land use and socioeconomic information. To meet the cha…
Analyzes how financial network dependencies can lead to multiple equilibrium outcomes and optimal bailout strategies.
Model explains money creation under regulatory constraints.
The topological properties of interbank networks have been discussed widely in the literature mainly because of their relevance for systemic risk. Here we propose to use the Stochastic Block Model to investigate and perform a model selection among several possible two block organizations of the network: these include b…
Time-resolved angiography with interleaved stochastic trajectories (TWIST) has been widely used for dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI). To achieve highly accelerated acquisitions, TWIST combines the periphery of the k-space data from several adjacent frames to reconstruct one temporal frame. However, this view-sha…
We study how network structure affects the dynamics of collateral in presence of rehypothecation. We build a simple model wherein banks interact via chains of repo contracts and use their proprietary collateral or re-use the collateral obtained by other banks via reverse repos. In this framework, we show that total col…
This paper compares various graph centrality methods for portfolio optimization.
We demonstrate using multi-layered networks, the existence of an empirical linkage between the dynamics of the financial network constructed from the market indices and the macroeconomic networks constructed from macroeconomic variables such as trade, foreign direct investments, etc. for several countries across the gl…
This paper uses the relationship between graph conductance and spectral clustering to study (i) the failures of spectral clustering and (ii) the benefits of regularization. The explanation is simple. Sparse and stochastic graphs create a lot of small trees that are connected to the core of the graph by only one edge. G…

Robust X-Learner improves HTE estimation in imbalanced and heavy-tailed data.
A challenging problem in the study of complex systems is that of resolving, without prior information, the emergent, mesoscopic organization determined by groups of units whose dynamical activity is more strongly correlated internally than with the rest of the system. The existing techniques to filter correlations are …
This study compares decentralized banks and finds some lack decentralization.
LFGCN uses Levy Flights for graph semi-supervised learning.
In various application areas, networked data is collected by measuring interactions involving some specific set of core nodes. This results in a network dataset containing the core nodes along with a potentially much larger set of fringe nodes that all have at least one interaction with a core node. In many settings, t…
Information diffusion and virus propagation are fundamental processes taking place in networks. While it is often possible to directly observe when nodes become infected with a virus or adopt the information, observing individual transmissions (i.e., who infects whom, or who influences whom) is typically very difficult…
