Analyse the graph below and evaluate the following statements: I - The modularity value for this graph is approximately 0.48. II - Removing nodes 15, 6, and 8 is not expected to significantly impact the modularity: it will increase by only about a hundredth compared to the modularity of the original network. III - Introducing a new green node that connects to nodes 3, 5, and 6 increases the modularity to approximately 0.61. IV - Increasing the modularity might cause the green nodes to transition into lilac or orange. Choose an option with only correct statements: a) I, II and III b) II, III and IV c) II and IV d) I, II and IV e) None of above Original idea by: João Marcos
Considering the topic of Degree Correlations, analyze the assertions below: I) Networks with vertices whose degrees are higher than the structural cutoff will exhibit structural assortativity, as the degree (k_s) becomes smaller than the maximum degree (k_max). II) In a random network, the degree correlation is always positive, indicating a tendency for nodes with high degrees to connect to other nodes with high degrees. III) Adding new nodes that connect hubs to low-degree nodes will never make the graph disassortative. IV) In a scale-free network, the degree correlation is always negative, suggesting a preference for nodes with high degrees to connect to nodes with low degrees. Select the correct one: a) Only IV b) I, II c) I, III d)II, IV e) None of above Original idea by: João Marcos
