Nestedness Metrics

Nestedness Metrics is a quantitative method used in ecological and complex network analysis that belongs to the class of structural metrics and is distinguished by its specific capacity to measure the degree to which interactions in a bipartite network are organized in a nested pattern, where specialist nodes interact with subsets of the partners of more generalist nodes.
