Nestedness across biological scales. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Biological networks pervade nature. They describe systems throughout all levels of biological organization, from molecules regulating metabolism to species interactions that shape ecosystem dynamics. The network thinking revealed recurrent organizational

Nestedness for Dummies (NeD): A User-Friendly Web Interface for Exploratory Nestedness Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2014
Recent theoretical advances in nestedness analysis have led to the introduction of several alternative metrics to overcome most of the problems biasing the use of matrix 'temperature' calculated by Atmar's Nestedness Temperature Calculator.

Breaking the Spell of Nestedness: The Entropic Origin of Nestedness in Mutualistic Systems [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2019
Mutualistic interactions, those that are naturally beneficial for both interacting species, are recurrently found in ecosystems. Observations of natural systems show that if we draw mutualistic relationships as links between species, the resulting ...

Nestedness and segmented nestedness [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 13th ACM SIGKDD international conference on Knowledge discovery and data mining, 2007
Consider each row of a 0-1 dataset as the subset of the columns for which the row has an 1. Then a dataset is nested, if for all pairs of rows one row is either a superset or subset of the other.

On nestedness analyses: rethinking matrix temperature and anti-nestedness [PDF]

open access: yesOikos, 2015
The analysis of nested structures in sets of species assemblages across different sites or in networks of interspecific interactions has become common practice in ecological studies.

Revealing in-block nestedness: Detection and benchmarking [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2018
As new instances of nested organization—beyond ecological networks—are discovered, scholars are debating the coexistence of two apparently incompatible macroscale architectures: nestedness and modularity.

Breaking the spell of nestedness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Mutualistic interactions, which are beneficial for both interacting species, are recurrently present in ecosystems. Observations of natural systems showed that, if we draw mutualistic relationships as binary links between species, the resulting bipartite

Detecting nestedness in graphs

open access: yes, 2017
Many real-world networks have a nested structure. Examples range from biological ecosystems (e.g. mutualistic networks), industry systems (e.g. New York garment industry) to inter-bank networks (e.g. Fedwire bank network).

Emergence of nestedness in the public internet peering ecosystem

open access: yesApplied Network Science
Nestedness is a property of bipartite complex networks that has been shown to characterize the peculiar structure of biological and economical networks.
