  • 14.8. 15:15  Mikko Kivelä (Aalto University): Randomized reference models and spreading in temporal networks – M3 (M234)

    For a long time network science concentrated on static graphs as representations of networked systems. This abstraction was used to analyse shortest path lengths, spreading of disease or information in networks, and many other things. Often the underlying assumption behind such analysis was that the activation of nodes and links is controlled by homogeneous Poisson processes. More recently there has been growing interest in analysing 'temporal networks' where the link activation times are determined directly from data. In this talk I will illustrate how this approach can be used to analyse a large communication network with hundreds of millions of link activation events. I will focus on how 'reference models', in which the data is shuffled in various ways, can be used for this data and how they are used in the literature on temporal networks in general. I will also discuss the challenges in the literature that are caused by the sudden increase in use of such shuffling methods of temporal network.

After arguing for the relevanced of this model using data from Norway, we price typical forward contracts traded in the market (specifically the Chicago Mercantile Exchange). The quesiton of option pricing will be discussed.
