In a random linear graph, vertices are points on a line, and pairs of vertices are connected, independently, with a link probability that decreases with distance. We study the problem of reconstructing the linear embedding from the graph,…

Exponential Random Graph Models (ERGM) behave peculiar in large networks with thousand(s) of actors (nodes). Standard models containing two-star or triangle counts as statistics are often unstable leading to completely full or empty…
