Contagion dynamics on higher-order networks

Guilherme Ferraz de Arruda, Alberto Aleta, Yamir Moreno

AI总结:

本文综述高阶网络上的社会传染动力学研究,提出统一形式化框架以整合不同传播函数形式,并指出实证验证不足,为未来理论与数据驱动研究提供方向。

摘要:

理解疾病、信息和行为的传播是当代网络与复杂系统科学中一项至关重要的研究挑战。COVID-19 大流行和错误信息的泛滥是这些动态过程重要性的典型例证,近年来由于高阶网络有望为其研究开辟新途径,这些过程受到了更多关注。尽管仍处于早期阶段,对高阶网络中社会传染的研究已经涌现出大量新颖的研究工作和概念,揭示了传播动力学的不同函数形式,并提供了新的见解。本综述对这批文献进行了有针对性的概述,并提出一个统一的形式化框架,涵盖其中大多数形式。其目标是强调各种模型之间的相似性与区别,以推动对此类模型一般性和普适性质的进一步研究。我们还强调,虽然进一步理论探索的路径似乎已经清晰,但通过数据或实验对这些模型进行实证验证的工作仍然稀少,至今路线图尚未确定。因此,我们在结尾提出一些展望,旨在提供可能的研究方向,从而有助于从理论和数据导向两个角度更好地理解这一类动态过程。

英文摘要:

Understanding the dissemination of diseases, information, and behavior stands as a paramount research challenge in contemporary network and complex systems science. The COVID-19 pandemic and the proliferation of misinformation are relevant examples of the importance of these dynamic processes, which have recently gained more attention due to the potential of higher-order networks to unlock new avenues for their investigation. Despite being in its early stages, the examination of social contagion in higher-order networks has witnessed a surge of novel research and concepts, revealing different functional forms for the spreading dynamics and offering novel insights. This review presents a focused overview of this body of literature and proposes a unified formalism that covers most of these forms. The goal is to underscore the similarities and distinctions among various models, to motivate further research on the general and universal properties of such models. We also highlight that while the path for additional theoretical exploration appears clear, the empirical validation of these models through data or experiments remains scant, with an unsettled roadmap as of today. We therefore conclude with some perspectives aimed at providing possible research directions that could contribute to a better understanding of this class of dynamical processes, both from a theoretical and a data-oriented point of view.
