Application of the hierarchy score maximization algorithm to a military command network. (A) A military command network with 19 nodes at five hierarchy levels. (B) The probability matrix inferred by the HSM algorithm with the number of levels specified as L = 2, 3, …, 8. Each element in the matrix gives the probability of a node being assigned to a level. The HSM algorithm correctly identifies the network hierarchy when L = 5 is specified. (C) The distribution of hierarchy scores when a certain number of edges in the original network are perturbed. HS: hierarchy score; CHS: corrected hierarchy score; PHS: probabilistic hierarchy score (see ‘Materials and methods’ for details).
