We propose a generalized stochastic block model to explore the mesoscopic structures in signed networks by grouping vertices that exhibit similar positive and negative connection profiles into the same cluster. In this model, the group…
Signed networks have long been used to represent social relations of amity (+) and enmity (-) between individuals. Group of individuals who are cyclically connected are said to be balanced if the number of negative edges in the cycle is…
In many real-world networks, relationships often go beyond simple dyadic presence or absence; they can be positive, like friendship, alliance, and mutualism, or negative, characterized by enmity, disputes, and competition. To understand the…
In signed networks, some existing community detection methods treat negative connections as intercommunity links and positive ones as intracommunity links. However, it is important to recognize that negative links on real-world networks…
Recent studies from social, biological, and engineering network systems have drawn attention to the dynamics over signed networks, where each link is associated with a positive/negative sign indicating trustful/mistrustful,…
With the prevalence of social media, the connectedness between people has been greatly enhanced. Real-world relations between users on social media are often not limited to expressing positive ties such as friendship, trust, and agreement,…
We study online social networks in which relationships can be either positive (indicating relations such as friendship) or negative (indicating relations such as opposition or antagonism). Such a mix of positive and negative links arise in…
A signed network is a network with each link associated with a positive or negative sign. Models for nodes interacting over such signed networks, where two different types of interactions take place along the positive and negative links,…
A class of networks are those with both positive and negative links. In this manuscript, we studied the interplay between positive and negative ties on mesoscopic level of these networks, i.e., their community structure. A community is…
Network visualization has established as a key complement to network analysis since the large variety of existing network layouts are able to graphically highlight different properties of networks. However, signed networks, i.e., networks…
This work analyzes the convergence properties of signed networks with nonlinear edge functions. We consider diffusively coupled networks comprised of maximal equilibrium-independent passive (MEIP) dynamics on the nodes, and a general class…
Signed networks contain both positive and negative kinds of interactions like friendship and enmity. The task of node classification in non-signed graphs has proven to be beneficial in many real world applications, yet extensions to signed…
Substantive research in the Social Sciences regularly investigates signed networks, where edges between actors are either positive or negative. For instance, schoolchildren can be friends or rivals, just as countries can cooperate or fight…
Signed networks are mathematical structures that encode positive and negative relations between entities such as friend/foe or trust/distrust. Recently, several papers studied the construction of useful low-dimensional representations…
Data-driven analysis of large social networks has attracted a great deal of research interest. In this paper, we investigate 120 real social networks and their measurement-calibrated synthetic counterparts generated by four well-known…
Understanding the structure of weighted signed networks is essential for analysing social systems in which relationships vary both in sign and strength. Despite significant advances in statistical network analysis, there is still a lack of…
We review the main tools which allow for the statistical characterization of weighted networks. We then present two case studies, the airline connection network and the scientific collaboration network, which are representative of critical…
Network embedding has attracted an increasing attention over the past few years. As an effective approach to solve graph mining problems, network embedding aims to learn a low-dimensional feature vector representation for each node of a…
Signed networks capture the polarity of relationships between nodes, providing valuable insights into complex systems where both supportive and antagonistic interactions play a critical role in shaping the network dynamics. We propose a…
Many real-world networks known as attributed networks contain two types of information: topology information and node attributes. It is a challenging task on how to use these two types of information to explore structural regularities. In…
