A link stream is a set of triplets $(t, u, v)$ indicating that $u$ and $v$ interacted at time $t$. Link streams model numerous datasets and their proper study is crucial in many applications. In practice, raw link streams are often…
A link stream is a collection of triplets $(t,u,v)$ indicating that an interaction occurred between $u$ and $v$ at time $t$. Link streams model many real-world situations like email exchanges between individuals, connections between…
Graph theory provides a language for studying the structure of relations, and it is often used to study interactions over time too. However, it poorly captures the both temporal and structural nature of interactions, that calls for a…
We recently introduced a formalism for the modeling of temporal networks, that we call stream graphs. It emphasizes the streaming nature of data and allows rigorous definitions of many important concepts generalizing classical graphs. This…
A link stream is a sequence of pairs of the form $(t,\{u,v\})$, where $t\in\mathbb N$ represents a time instant and $u\neq v$. Given an integer $\gamma$, the $\gamma$-edge between vertices $u$ and $v$, starting at time $t$, is the set of…
A link stream is a collection of triplets $(t, u, v)$ indicating that an interaction occurred between u and v at time t. We generalize the classical notion of cliques in graphs to such link streams: for a given $\Delta$, a $\Delta$-clique…
Many dynamic networks coming from real-world contexts are link streams, i.e. a finite collection of triplets $(u,v,t)$ where $u$ and $v$ are two nodes having a link between them at time $t$. A very large number of studies on these objects…
Typically, for analysing and modelling social phenomena, networks are a convenient framework that allows for the representation of the interconnectivity of individuals. These networks are often considered transmission structures for…
Graphs are commonly used in mathematics to represent some relationships between items. However, as simple objects, they sometimes fail to capture all relevant aspects of real-world data. To address this problem, we generalize them and model…
Temporal networks model how the interaction between elements in a complex system evolve over time. Just like complex systems display collective dynamics, here we interpret temporal networks as trajectories performing a collective motion in…
Temporal networks are commonly used to model real-life phenomena. When these phenomena represent interactions and are captured at a fine-grained temporal resolution, they are modeled as link streams. Community detection is an essential…
Graph compression is a data analysis technique that consists in the replacement of parts of a graph by more general structural patterns in order to reduce its description length. It notably provides interesting exploration tools for the…
Link Streams were proposed a few years ago as a model of temporal networks. We seek to understand the topological and temporal nature of those objects through efficiently computing the distances, latencies and lengths of shortest fastest…
Capturing both the structural and temporal aspects of interactions is crucial for many real world datasets like contact between individuals. Using the link stream formalism to capture the dynamic of the systems, we tackle the issue of…
Many systems generate data as a set of triplets (a, b, c): they may represent that user a called b at time c or that customer a purchased product b in store c. These datasets are traditionally studied as networks with an extra dimension…
Stream graphs are a very useful mode of representation for temporal network data, whose richness offers a wide range of possible approaches. The various methods aimed at generalising the classical approaches applied to static networks are…
We are faced with data comprised of entities interacting over time: this can be individuals meeting, customers buying products, machines exchanging packets on the IP network, among others. Capturing the dynamics as well as the structure of…
The behavior of complex systems is determined not only by the topological organization of their interconnections but also by the dynamical processes taking place among their constituents. A faithful modeling of the dynamics is essential…
A temporal graph can be considered as a stream of links, each of which represents an interaction between two nodes at a certain time. On temporal graphs, link prediction is a common task, which aims to answer whether the query link is true…
Link streams model interactions over time, and a clique in a link stream is defined as a set of nodes and a time interval such that all pairs of nodes in this set interact permanently during this time interval. This notion was introduced…
