As my first post joining this social network, nothing better than a network-related paper! Our latest preprint on how strong localization may blur criticality in a time series! Check it out:

Strong localization blurs criticality of time series for spreading phenomena on networks
We analyze critical time series of the order parameter generated with active to inactive phase transitions of spreading dynamics running on the top of heterogeneous networks. Different activation mech...

Self-tuned criticality: Controlling a neuron near its bifurcation point via temporal correlations
Previous work showed that the collective activity of large neuronal networks can be tamed to remain near its critical point by a feedback control that maximizes the temporal correlations of the mean-f...

On February 2023 the group attended NetSciX 2023 in Buenos Aires - Argentina. The conference enhanced the collaboration between researchers in network science from South America and around the world. Recent works on complex networks were both presented and attended by the group.

The group has a well-founded experience in theoretical epidemic modeling, and at the beginning of 2020, this knowledge showed to be even more important for aggregating real data to the models.
