Immunization against malaria with antigen from Plasmodium falciparum cultivated in vitro.

abstract：:Prompted by the increasing interest in networks in many fields, we present an attempt at unifying points of view and analyses of these objects coming from the social sciences, statistics, probability and physics communities. We apply our approach to the Newman-Girvan modularity, widely used for "community" detection, ...
