Properties of Random Network Models

Many existing random network models such as Erdős–Rényi and preferential attachment have a few deficiencies in modelling real-world networks. In particular, real -world networks are often highly clustered while the models fail to explain that property. The project aims to develop and study a new general embellishment of network models that rectifies some of those deficiencies, through the random addition of edges between vertices that have common connections. We will also assess the performance of the new embellishment by comparing the predictions of embellished models to real-world networks.
