Complex networks are universal, arising in fields as disparate as sociology, physics, and biology. In the past decade, extensive research into the properties and behaviors of complex systems has uncovered surprising commonalities among the topologies of different systems. Attempts to explain these similarities have led to the ongoing development and refinement of network models and graph-theore...

This paper presents a summary evaluation method based on a complex network measure. We show how to model summaries as complex networks and establish a possible correlation between summary quality and the measure known as dynamics of the network growth. It is a generic and language independent method that enables easy and fast comparative evaluation of summaries. We evaluate our approach using m...

Network theory provides a rich toolbox consisting of methods, measures, and models for studying the structure and dynamics of complex systems found in nature, society, or technology. Recently, it has been pointed out that many real-world complex systems are more adequately mapped by networks of interacting or interdependent networks, e.g., a power grid showing interdependency with a communicati...
