Portraits of complex networks

Portraits of complex networks

We propose a method for characterizing large complex networks by introducing a new matrix structure, unique for a given network, which encodes structural information; provides useful visualization, even for very large networks; and allows for rigorous statistical comparison between networks. Dynamic processes such as percolation can be visualized using animation. Introduction. – Large, complex ...

Study of Generating Portraits Using Neural Networks

This paper proposes a method that can automatically generate portraits from face images (photos) using multi-layered neural networks, for which image features of the face are the inputs, the portrait drawn by an illustrator are teaching signals, and back-propagation algorithms are performed for learning. This paper deals with portraits that consist of facial contour, eyebrows, eyes and mouth, m...
