Many thanks to Narayan Sabhahit for inviting me to give this guest lecture as part of CNET 5050 Fundamentals of Complex Networks at Northeastern University.
Abstract
These slides cover statistical estimators for the tail exponent of power law degree distributions, binning of heavy-tailed distributions, and visualization basics for degree-heterogeneous networks.
Slides
Slides will be provided after the lecture.
