Abstract

Random graphs play a central role in network analysis. The Chung-Lu random graph model is one particularly popular model, which connects nodes according to their desired degrees to form a specific degree distribution in expectation. Despite its popularity, the standard Chung-Lu graph generation algorithms are susceptible to significant degree sequence errors when generating simple graphs. In this manuscript, we suggest multiple methods for improving the accuracy of Chung-Lu graph generation by computing node weights which better recreate the desired output degree sequence. We show that each of our solutions offer a significant improvement in degree sequence accuracy.
