   out of 5 stars 

   10 May 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Winfried Just, Hannah Lea Callender, Drew LaMar

   In this module we introduce and explore the structure of random regular graphs. Moreover, we compare the predictions of SIR-models on random regular contact networks with the predictions of corresponding models on Erdős-Rényi networks.Level: Undergraduate students of biology or...

3. Exploring Erdős-Rényi random graphs with IONTW

   out of 5 stars 

   10 May 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Winfried Just, Hannah Lea Callender, Drew LaMar

   In this module we explore in detail the distribution of the sizes of connected components of Erdős-Rényi random graphs and discover the reasons for the similarities and differences between disease transmission on Erdős-Rényi networks and complete graphs that were observed in...
