Network completion is a harder problem than link prediction because it does not only try to infer missing links but also nodes. Different methods have been proposed to solve this problem, but few of them employed structural information - the similarity of local connection patterns. In this paper, we propose a model named C-GIN to capture the local structural patterns from the observed part of a network based on the Graph Auto-Encoder framework equipped with Graph Isomorphism Network model and generalize these patterns to complete the whole graph. Experiments and analysis on synthetic and real-world networks from different domains show that competitive performance can be achieved by C-GIN with less information being needed, and higher accuracy compared with baseline prediction models in most cases can be obtained. We further proposed a metric "Reachable Clustering Coefficient(CC)" based on network structure. And experiments show that our model perform better on a network with higher Reachable CC.

Multiscale modeling of complex systems is crucial for understanding their intricacies. Data-driven multiscale modeling has emerged as a promising approach to tackle challenges associated with complex systems. On the other hand, self-similarity is prevalent in complex systems, hinting that large-scale complex systems can be modeled at a reduced cost. In this paper, we introduce a multiscale neural network framework that incorporates self-similarity as prior knowledge, facilitating the modeling of self-similar dynamical systems. For deterministic dynamics, our framework can discern whether the dynamics are self-similar. For uncertain dynamics, it can compare and determine which parameter set is closer to self-similarity. The framework allows us to extract scale-invariant kernels from the dynamics for modeling at any scale. Moreover, our method can identify the power law exponents in self-similar systems. Preliminary tests on the Ising model yielded critical exponents consistent with theoretical expectations, providing valuable insights for addressing critical phase transitions in non-equilibrium systems.

Predicting company growth is crucial for strategic adjustment, operational decision-making, risk assessment, and loan eligibility reviews. Traditional models for company growth often focus too much on theory, overlooking practical forecasting, or they rely solely on time series forecasting techniques, ignoring interpretability and the inherent mechanisms of company growth. In this paper, we propose a machine learning-based prediction framework that incorporates an econophysics model for company growth. Our model captures both the intrinsic growth mechanisms of companies led by scaling laws and the fluctuations influenced by random factors and individual decisions, demonstrating superior predictive performance compared with methods that use time series techniques alone. Its advantages are more pronounced in long-range prediction tasks. By explicitly modeling the baseline growth and volatility components, our model is more interpretable.
