Day 19 : The Giants!

Since I have been in bed most of the week, I finally put the kindle to good use and took up to reading.
Here, I'll try to put together a list of the various research I have read about so far, just to summarize the magnitude and depth of the rabbit hole. Here Goes

1. Barabási–Albert model
   This was the starting point for me, and quickly led me to the next checkpoint.
2. Scale-free network and Power-law decay
   Understanding these helped in gaining a better view  of the general idea behind the B-A model, and I can't say I wasn't surprised by the absence of the bell curve for a change.
3. Watts and Strogatz model and Small-world networks
   These models help generalise the idea a bit more, and now I realise what exactly is the difference in the scale-free network I aimed for, and the fat-tailed distribution I achieved.
   The achieved network classifies as small-world, while the targeted one should be a ultra-small world.

Extra Read :

1. Structure and Function of complex Networks - Newman

2.Scale-Free Networks are Ultrasmall - Cohen, Havlin

3.Introverts and Extroverts - Max Freyd

4. Biomarkers to detect All-Cause Mortality

Now time to go back to more scrambling, also, I started to look into Mathematica. It's fun!

So Long.

p.s. I'll keep coming back to add more useful and notable reads to this post.
