Linked network in statistics is a network, which is composed of one-node networks, where the nodes from different one-node networks are connected through two-node networks. This means, that "linked networks are collections of networks defined on different sets of nodes", where all sets of nodes must be connected to each other.[1]: 259 

Different examples of linked networks are: [1]: 259–260 [2]

  • multilevel networks,
  • dynamic networks (networks, measured at several different points in time),
  • dynamic multilevel networks, measured at several different points in time,
  • meta-networks, based on the PCANS model.
