Revising the Newman-Girvan Algorithm

Abstract: One of the common approaches for the community detection in complex networks is the Girvan-Newman algorithm [5] which is based on repeated deletion of edges having the maximum edge betweenness centrality. Although widely used, it may result in different dendrograms of hierarchies of communities if there are several edges eligible for removal (see [6]) thus leaving an ambiguous formati...

Revising the UMLS Semantic Network

The integration of standardized biomedical terminologies into a single, unified knowledge representation system has formed a key area of applied informatics research in recent years. The Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) is the most advanced and most prominent effort in this direction, bringing together within its Metathesaurus a large number of distinct source-terminologies. The UMLS Sema...
