Local Interactions and the Emergence of a Twitter Small-World Network [PDF]
The small-world phenomenon is found in many self-organising systems. Systems configured in small-world networks spread information more easily than in random or regular lattice-type networks. Whilst it is a known fact that small-world networks have short average path length and high clustering coefficient in self-organising systems, the ego ...

NbBench: Benchmarking Language Models for Comprehensive Nanobody Tasks [PDF]
Nanobodies, single-domain antibody fragments derived from camelid heavy-chain-only antibodies, exhibit unique advantages such as compact size, high stability, and strong binding affinity, making them valuable tools in therapeutics and diagnostics. While recent advances in pretrained protein and antibody language models (PPLMs and PALMs) have greatly ...
