Infection patterns in simple and complex contagion processes on networks
Fig 5
A: Cosine similarity between infection patterns at varying different combinations of β| and βΔ. B: Number of contagions taking place via first and second order simplices in the simulations of the previous panel. C1 is the infection pattern matrix obtained considering only infections taking place via pairwise links and C2 is the analogous for triads infections, with C1 + C2 = C. In the plot we report the sum of all elements of the matrices ∑ij(C1)ij and ∑ij(C2)ij, which give the respective fractions of contagion events of each type. C: Cosine similarity between infection patterns at varying different combinations of β and βΔ, when computing the infection patterns using only simulations with attack rate between 0.6 and 0.7. D: Number of contagions taking place via first and second order simplices in the simulations of the previous panel. E: Cosine similarity between infection patterns of simplicial contagion (for the same range of values of β| and βΔ) and simple contagion (for different values of R0).
