open-in-new
<p>In <a href="/facts/Network_science/Ul7FMUg3">network science</a>, the network entropy is a disorder measure derived from <a href="/facts/Information_theory/qNLH3U5P">information theory</a> to describe the level of randomness and the amount of information encoded in a graph. It is a relevant metric to quantitatively characterize real <a href="/facts/Complex_networks/6zTa9z4e">complex networks</a> and can also be used to quantify <a href="/facts/Network_complexity/nPutfSEa">network complexity</a> </p>
