Note: The values for Bias and SE are calculated over 30 independent samples, where each sample yields one estimate of the network measure. All estimates come from the ENC model.

a

Bias=E(estimates)−True Value.

b

The Standard Error is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution.

c

Values are 10−5
