We assume to know for all the nodes a non-topological quantity that we interpret as fitness. In contrast, we assume to know the degree, i.e. the number of connections, only for a subset of the nodes in the network. We then use a fitness model, calibrated on the subset of nodes for which degrees are known, in order to generate ensembles of networks. Here, we focus on topological properties that are relevant for processes of contagion and distress propagation in networks, i.e. network density and k-core structure, and date: 2013 date_type: published publication: Journal of Statistical Physics volume: 151 number: 3 publisher: Springer pagerange: 720-734 id_number: 10.1007/s10955-013-0720-1 refereed: TRUE issn: 0022-4715 official_url: http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10955-013-0720-1 projects: EC FET Open Project “FOC” No. 255987 citation: Musmeci, Nicolò and Battiston, Stefano and Caldarelli, Guido and Puliga, Michelangelo and Gabrielli, Andrea Bootstrapping Topological Properties and Systemic Risk of Complex Networks Using the Fitness Model.
