  1. The networks represented here are the three largest communities considered from the second level of the hierarchical structure of the Japanese production network. The sizes of communities 1, 2 and 3 are 2,347, 2,249 and 2,173, respectively. The values given in parentheses represent the GoF ratio calculated as described by Hunter et al. (2008)
