Fig. 5: Effect of regular structures in networks.
From: Revealing the predictability of intrinsic structure in complex networks
a A schematic depiction of combining a circle model network (regular) into a real network. In the circle model network, each node has kc links with its closest nodes. b We decrease the regular links by using value of kc from 20 to 2 in the circular model network. Points with the same shape and color correspond to a real network. The arrow presents the flow of the value pair (\({L}^{* },{H}_{{\rm{BPAA}}}^{* }\)) as kc decreases. It is clear that our theoretical prediction works better with less regular structural features.
