Individual versus collective cognition in social insects

O Feinerman, A Korman - Journal of Experimental Biology, 2017 - journals.biologists.com
The concerted responses of eusocial insects to environmental stimuli are often referred to as
collective cognition at the level of the colony. To achieve collective cognition, a group can …

Second order centrality: Distributed assessment of nodes criticity in complex networks

AM Kermarrec, E Le Merrer, B Sericola… - Computer …, 2011 - Elsevier
A complex network can be modeled as a graph representing the “who knows who”
relationship. In the context of graph theory for social networks, the notion of centrality is used …

Collaborative search on the plane without communication

O Feinerman, A Korman, Z Lotker… - Proceedings of the 2012 …, 2012 - dl.acm.org

cooperative biological ensembles. We introduce the Ants Nearby Treasure Search (ANTS) …

Fast sequence-based embedding with diffusion graphs

B Rozemberczki, R Sarkar - Complex Networks IX: Proceedings of the 9th …, 2018 - Springer
A graph embedding is a representation of graph vertices in a low-dimensional space, which
approximately preserves properties such as distances between nodes. Vertex sequence …

Multiple random walkers and their application to image cosegmentation

C Lee, WD Jang, JY Sim… - Proceedings of the IEEE …, 2015 - openaccess.thecvf.com
A graph-based system to simulate the movements and interactions of multiple random

Multiple random walks in random regular graphs

C Cooper, A Frieze, T Radzik - SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2010 - SIAM
We study properties of multiple random walks on a graph under various assumptions of
interaction between the particles. To give precise results, we make the analysis for random …

Distributed MST and routing in almost mixing time

We present a randomized distributed algorithm that computes a minimum spanning tree in τ
(G)· 2O (√(log n log log n))) rounds, in any n-node graph G with mixing time τ (G). This result …

Motifs for processes on networks

AC Schwarze, MA Porter - SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems, 2021 - SIAM
