Research Abstract |
First, we analyzed a data set obtained from locomotion of Caenorhabditis elegans and revealed its long-tailed nature. Second, we proposed a measure of importance of nodes in directed networks, corresponding to neurons, for example, in biological networks, using the so-called Laplacian matrix of the network. Third, we used a coupled oscillator model to quantify the precision of oscillatory rhythms in synchronous cell networks. Fourth, we applied the maximum entropy model to data of brain networks to estimate the network structure to find that the proposed method inferred the anatomical network with a higher accuracy than previous methods did. Fifth, we analyzed general temporal networks in which events were dynamical objects on links in networks.
