Fig. 3. Multiscale temporal network clustering with the flow stability.
(A) Interaction probabilities of the synthetic temporal block model showing a hierarchical structure with three levels. (B) Number of clusters as a function of the time interval length for different values of the characteristic waiting time, τw. (C) Average NVI as a function of the time interval duration. Minima of the NVI indicate when the solutions of the optimization are robust. The filled band show the SD computed across the 10 simulations. (D) Correspondence between the optimal partitions found and the different levels of the network hierarchical structure. NMI, normalized mutual information; a.u., arbitrary units.
