24. In Ref. , Garlaschelli presented a class of generalized statistics that describes the structural correlations of weighted networks. Although the equations we derive can be recognized as a specific example of this class, in our paper these equations emerge from empirical observations of real data, not from ad hoc theoretical assumptions [cf. Eq. in Ref. ].
