This means that following~\cite{keribinEstimationSelectionLatent2015}, the identifiability of $\bm{\alpha}$, $\bm{\pi}$ and $\bm{\rho}$ is obtained from the distribution of $X^{m^*}$ under assumptions (1.1), (1.2) and (1.3). \end{proof} \chapter{Supplementary for~\nameref{chap:simulation-studies}} Below are the supplementary material for the~\nameref{chap:simulation-studies}. \section{Supplementary for~\nameref{sec:efficiency-of-the-inference}} The tables~\ref{tab:inference_results_iid} to \ref{tab:inference_results_pirho} show detailed results for the inference of the model detailed in this section. \foreach \modelname in {sep, iid, pi, rho, pirho}{ \input{../tables/simulations/inference/\modelname.tex} } \section{Supplementary for~\nameref{sec:capacity-to-distinguish-pirhotext-colbisbm-from-iidtext-colbisbm-and-other-variants}} The table~\ref{tab:model-selection} present the results discussed in section~\ref{sec:capacity-to-distinguish-pirhotext-colbisbm-from-iidtext-colbisbm-and-other-variants} For the block number recovery part, the \emph{minimum} values are in \textbf{bold} as they indicate conditions for which all the different models did not recovered the correct structure. For the model proportion part of the table, the \emph{maximum }values are in \textbf{bold} and highlight the model that was selected the most among the conditions. Please note that blank space indicates that among all conditions the corresponding model was not selected at all. \begin{landscape} \input{../tables/simulations/model_selection/model-selection.tex} \end{landscape} \chapter{Supplementary for~\nameref{chap:applications-ecological-networks}} \section{Additional information on~\nameref{sec:baldock-clustering}} \fancypagestyle{fancy} \renewcommand*{\thepage}{S-\arabic{page}} Due to report size limitations we included these plots here as they are not crucial to understand what is going on in the section~\ref{sec:baldock-clustering}.
