Locating influential nodes via dynamics-sensitive centrality
نویسندگان
چکیده
With great theoretical and practical significance, locating influential nodes of complex networks is a promising issue. In this paper, we present a dynamics-sensitive (DS) centrality by integrating topological features and dynamical properties. The DS centrality can be directly applied in locating influential spreaders. According to the empirical results on four real networks for both susceptible-infected-recovered (SIR) and susceptible-infected (SI) spreading models, the DS centrality is more accurate than degree, k-shell index and eigenvector centrality.

Dynamic-Sensitive centrality of nodes in temporal networks
Locating influential nodes in temporal networks has attracted a lot of attention as data driven and diverse applications. Classic works either looked at analysing static networks or placed too much emphasis on the topological information but rarely highlighted the dynamics. In this paper, we take account the network dynamics and extend the concept of Dynamic-Sensitive centrality to temporal net...

متن کاملThe role of centrality for the identification of influential spreaders in complex networks
The identification of the most influential spreaders in networks is important to control and understand the spreading capabilities of the system as well as to ensure an efficient information diffusion such as in rumor-like dynamics. Recent works have suggested that the identification of influential spreaders is not independent of the dynamics being studied. For instance, the key disease spreade...
متن کاملLeveraging local h-index to identify and rank influential spreaders in networks
Identifying influential nodes in complex networks has received increasing attention for its great theoretical and practical applications in many fields. Some classical methods, such as degree centrality, betweenness centrality, closeness centrality, and coreness centrality, were reported to have some limitations in detecting influential nodes. Recently, the famous h-index was introduced to the ...
