However, they are not well developed for more complex network structures, which are becoming increasingly common in practice. In this article we propose a new latent space model for multiplex networks, i.e., multiple heterogeneous networks observed on a shared node set. Multiplex networks can represent a network sample with shared node labels, a network evolving over time, or a network with multiple types of edges. The key feature of the proposed model is that it learns from data how much of the network structure is shared between layers and pools information across layers as appropriate. We establish identifiability, develop a fitting procedure using convex optimization in combination with a nuclear-norm penalty, and prove a guarantee of recovery for the latent positions provided there is sufficient separation between the shared and the individual latent subspaces. We compare the model with competing methods in the literature on simulated networks and on a multiplex network describing the worldwide trade of agricultural products.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/biomet\/asab058","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,5]],"date-time":"2021-11-05T08:20:02Z","timestamp":1636100402000},"page":"683-706","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":34,"title":["Latent space models for multiplex networks with shared structure"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"109","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7024-7242","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"P W","family":"MacDonald","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Statistics, University of Michigan, 1085 South University , Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109, U.S.A"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0713-3450","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"E","family":"Levina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Statistics, University of Michigan, 1085 South University , Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109, U.S.A"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Statistics, University of Michigan, 1085 South University , Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109, U.S.A"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022082420280744900_B1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Inference for multiple heterogeneous networks with a common invariant subspace","volume":"22","author":"Arroyo,","year":"2021","journal-title":"J.
