 <br></span> <br>Based on our methodology for community detection and commu
 nity comparison in  graphs (Lyzinski et al.\, 2015\, <a href="http://arxiv
 .org/abs/1503.02115" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://arxiv.org/abs/1
 503.02115</a>)\, we formulate a  model selection procedure for deciding wh
 ether a hierarchical stochastic  blockmodel graph supports the conjecture 
 of repeated motifs. Such a graph  inference procedure promises to address 
 a fundamental outstanding question  regarding the atoms of neural computat
 ion (Marcus\, Marblestone & Dean\,  2014\, <a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1
