Thermal Conductance Graph (TCG): A Novel Physics-Inspired Method for Time Series to Complex Network Mapping

NetSciX 2026 Conference Submission110 Authors

Keywords: Time Series Analysis, Complex Networks, Network Mapping, Thermal Conductance Graph, Weighted graph

TL;DR: We propose a physics-inspired, heat-conduction-law mapping that converts a time series into a complex network—the Thermal Conductance Graph (TCG)—which preserves quantitative information more effectively than visibility-graph methods.
