Abstract
Many biological and artifact networks often represent modular structures in which the network can be decomposed into several subnetworks. Here, we propose a simple model for the modular network evolution based on the nonlinear denoising in node activities. This model suggests that modular networks can evolve under certain conditions — if the stipulated goals for the networks or the input and target output pairs involve modular features, or if the signal transfer in a node is carried out in a nonlinear manner with respect to the saturation at the upper and lower bounds. Our model highlights the positive role played by noise in modular network evolution.
