Figure 3. Final statistics of the symmetry measure.

A Expected value and standard deviation of the symmetry measure as a function of the pruning for different types of networks with uniform weights distribution. The total length of each bar is two times the standard deviation. Dashed light grey line: simulations for symmetric networks, Dash dotted light grey line: simulations for asymmetric networks, Solid dark grey line: simulations for random networks, Dashed black line: theoretical results for random networks. B The same as A but with Gaussian-distributed random weights. C Example of an adjacency matrix in a particular random network with uniform weights distribution and pruning parameter For this example D The same as C but with Gaussian-distributed random weights. For this example
