davitorre.bsky.social @davitorre.bsky.social · 17/11/2025New paper out 📄 Generating graphs with realistic degree distributions, clustering, and community structures is challenging — but important for modeling dynamics on networks. We present a method to build graphs with arbitrary mesoscale structures, degree sequences and global clustering coefficient.journals.aps.org 000

davitorre.bsky.social @davitorre.bsky.social · 12/09/2025From latent space to real-world networks — we’ve got the structure you need! In this preprint, we introduce a new methodology for generating graphs with arbitrary community structures in one-dimensional Euclidean space. That’s right — it’s everything you need. 000
davitorre.bsky.social @davitorre.bsky.social · 12/09/2025Is it time for us—scientists, PhDs, PostDocs, and others—to be more welcoming? Great post by @kmpanthagani.bsky.social on the impact of the word “misinformation.” I believe we should go further: listen, be welcoming, and engage in dialogue. It takes time, but in my view, it’s the only viable option. 021

davitorre.bsky.social @davitorre.bsky.social · 15/05/2025David Cope, a pioneer in computer-generated music, passed away on May 4. His "Experiments in Musical Intelligence" reshaped how we think about creativity and, perhaps, AI. Read about his legacy and listen to EMI's compositions here: substack.com/home/post/p-... @melaniemitchell.bsky.socialsubstack.comDavid Cope: Composer, computer scientist, and pioneer of computer generated musicToday I learned that the composer David Cope died on May 4, at the age of 83. 000

davitorre.bsky.social @davitorre.bsky.social · 08/05/2025Think a balanced diet and exercise alone can keep infectious diseases at bay? Think again. History proves otherwise. @kmpanthagani.bsky.social explains why abandoning the tools that protect us is a risk we can't afford to take.
