Reconstructing Mesoscale Network Structures

Figure 3

Evolution of the AIC and BIC values for the WTW across the years 1992-2002: while the SBM (blue trend) must be preferred to the traditional DRG (being the network composed by parts with different link densities), heterogeneous benchmarks are, generally speaking, to be preferred. Although the DCM and the RCM are characterized by very similar AIC values, AIC and BIC weights let always the DCM win. The ddc-SBM experiences convergence problems throughout the entire temporal period.
