Set up Octopress I refer to this blog and this blog to setup octopress. It’s very helpful for windows users. For encoding errors Most chinese windows users encounter the problem of encoding error, such as this one: invalid byte sequence in GBK. I handle it following three suggestions: 1.Modify the file located at C:\Ruby193\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\gems\jekyll-0.11.2\lib\jekyll\convertible.rb, to change: self.content = File.read(File.join(base, name)) into: self.content = File.read(File.join(base, name), :encoding => "utf-8") 2.

The long-tail distribution can be quantified in primarily three ways, see Newman ’s paper here: Power law distribution Zipf distribution Pareto distribution Here, I talk about the Zipf distribution which assesses the relationship between rank order and Frequency (probability). Zipf’s law now refers more generally to frequency distributions of “rank data,” in which the relative frequency of the nth-ranked item is given by the Zeta distribution. from Wikipedia

We know that the most simple network is the regular network, such as the ring network. If all the edges in a network are generated randomly, we can get a random graph or Erdos-Renyi network (ER network). Erdős–Rényi Random Graph model The Erdős–Rényi model, named for Paul Erdős and Alfréd Rényi, is used for generating random graphs in which edges are set between nodes with equal probabilities. There is a continuous shift between randomness and regularity.
