To explore and study the regular pattern of the cooperation evolution of enterprises, this paper introduces the concept of two-stage power law distribution on the basis of studying the degree distribution index of realistic complex networks. And constructs an evolution model according two-stage power-law distribution combined with fitness and noise fluctuation under complex network. Then using the numericalsimulation to analyze the model, the simulation results show that the fitness of normal distribution is the dominant factor in the generation of two-stage power law distribution. Noise fluctuation has little effect on enterprise value, but it can affect power exponents. Finally, this paper takes the supply chain network of China's automobile manufacturing industry as an example.The power exponents γ1 and γ2of the two-stage power law distribution of the network are 0.59 and 3.4 separately, which is in good agreement with the evolution of the supply chain network of China's automobile manufacturing industry.Also example verifies the validity of proposed model, and expounds the mechanism of cooperative evolution of supply chain network enterprises.

WU Lingjie, ZOU Yanli, WANG Ruirui, YAO Fei, WANG Yang
Complex Systems and Complexity Science. 2018, 15 (3): 11-18.   DOI: 10.13306/j.1672-3813.2018.03.002

The deep integration of electricity network and information networks can promote communication between networks, but also brings the risk of large-scale transmission of failures. Based on the grid structure and load characteristics, combined with the dispatching function of information network, we construct a "power-information interdependence network" model. Three types of node attack methods are applied to attack a single node of the power grid where the attacked node is the highest load node, the lowest load node or the highest capacity proportion node. The cascade effects are compared with single-layer power grid. Study shows that the robustness of the power information interdependent network is weaker than that of the single-layer power grid under the highest load node attack when the initial load is small. The robustness of the two kinds of networks approaches each other when the initial load is large. The difference in robustness of the two kinds of networks is not obvious at the lowest load node and highest capacity proportion node attack. On the interdependent network, the cascading failure caused by the highest load node attack is the most difficult to eliminate completely.

HUANG Yi, ZHANG Sheng, DAI Weikai, WANG Shuo, YANG Fang
Complex Systems and Complexity Science. 2018, 15 (3): 47-55.   DOI: 10.13306/j.1672-3813.2018.03.006
Abstract ( 899 )     PDF (1592KB) ( 380 )  
The fractal property is considered as the third fundamental topology features of complex networks. The fractal dimension is the most important measure to characterize the fractal property of complex networks, and the volume dimension is widely used to investigate the fractal property of unweighted networks. In this paper, motivated by the idea of volume dimension of unweighted networks, a new volume dimension measure based on the node strength of weighted networks is proposed. We first apply the proposed method to study the fractal property of two families of weighted fractal networks with regular fractal structures:“Sierpinski” weighted fractal networks and “Cantor dust” weighted fractal networks. The result shows that the numerical fractal dimensions obtained by our method are very close to the theoretical similarity dimension of the network. Then, we use the proposed method to study the fractal property of three more representative real-world weighted networks and the results demonstrate that the proposed method is also effective for the fractal scaling analysis of real-world weighted complex networks.

CHONG Pengyun, YIN Hui
Complex Systems and Complexity Science. 2018, 15 (3): 56-65.   DOI: 10.13306/j.1672-3813.2018.03.007
Abstract ( 846 )     PDF (1890KB) ( 638 )  
To study the topological properties and optimization strategies of hazardous materials road transportation network (HMRTN), the HMRTN of Dalian city was used as a case to investigate the topological properties by establishing an undirected, weighted and connected HMRTN model through primal approach based on complex network theory. The results of eigenvalues of average node degree, node distribution, characteristic path length and average clustering coefficient etc. show that: 1) the degree distribution is extremely uneven, and the cumulative node degree is subjected to exponential distribution, showing the network characteristics of random network; 2) the HMRTN has small characteristic path length and large network clustering coefficient, showing the network characteristics of small-world network; 3) by reducing the network average road length in the similar conditions (the size of network, the characteristic path length, etc.), expanding the size of network and taking a planning method with sparse and dense network etc. are all good for improving the network characteristics of small-world network. These findings provide a new reference to optimize and enhance the HMRTN and its network planning.

WU Xu, YAN Ruzhen, WANG Xuefei, LI Jia
Complex Systems and Complexity Science. 2018, 15 (3): 75-81.   DOI: 10.13306/j.1672-3813.2018.03.009
Abstract ( 851 )     PDF (694KB) ( 576 )  
In order to improve the effectiveness of portfolio selection, we firstly construct the statistical measures of fractal expectation and fractal variance, and give the algorithm of two fractal statistical measures. Secondly, a fractal portfolio selection model is built based on the fractal statistical measures and an analytical solution for fractal portfolio selection model is calculated. Lastly, drawing the sample of all industrial indexes from Shanghai Stock Exchange, we verify the feasibility of constructing portfolio selection model using two fractal statistical measures. The empirical results demonstrate that fractal statistical measures make up the defect of the non-fractal statistical measure’s disability to measure the return and risks of stocks accurately, and the fractal portfolio model is more effective in diversifying risks while ensuring returns.

Abstract ( 937 )     PDF (3248KB) ( 570 )  
In order to enhance the effective protection of color images, the multi-steady characteristics of a four-dimensional magnetron memristive model is analyzed by Lyapunov exponent spectrum and bifurcation diagrams. The color image encryption based on this system is implemented using Python programming. The analysis of the pixel histogram, the correlation between adjacent pixels, the anti-attack capability and the key sensitivity shows that the encryption performance of the chaotic state of the memristive system is superior to its periodic state. The analysis of the characteristic provides a method and support for selecting the appropriate key.

JING Wenteng, HAN Bo, GENG Jinhua, XU Liyan, DUAN Fabing
Complex Systems and Complexity Science. 2018, 15 (3): 89-93.   DOI: 10.13306/j.1672-3813.2018.03.011
Abstract ( 878 )     PDF (725KB) ( 443 )  
In this paper, the optimally weighted stochastic pooling network is investigated for the theoretical and experimental analyses of the random parameter estimation. The stochastic pooling network is first optimized by the random noise components, and then improved by the linear optimum weight coefficients. The theoretical expressions of the optimum weight vector and the mean square error of the stochastic pooling network with an arbitrary number of nodes are deduced. In practice, since the statistical information of parameter and background noise is often unknown, the approximation estimation algorithms of the optimum weight vector and the mean square error are presented and based on the observations. Theoretical and experimental results both verify the optimization ability of random noise, and show the outstanding estimation performance of the optimally weighted stochastic pooling network.
