In complex multivariate systems, interactions among variables are defined by dependency structures, often encoded as directed acyclic graphs ($\text{DAGs}$). However, dependency structures can vary across subjects, and ignoring this…
A sharp asymptotic formula for the number of strongly connected digraphs on $n$ labelled vertices with $m$ arcs, under a condition $m-n\to\infty$, $m=O(n)$, is obtained; this solves a problem posed by Wright back in $1977$. Our formula is a…

The degree-corrected block model (DCBM), latent space model (LSM), and $\beta$-model are all popular network models. We combine their modeling ideas and propose the logit-DCBM as a new model. Similar as the $\beta$-model and LSM, the…
