Closeness centrality via the Condorcet principle

open access: yesSocial Networks, 2023
We uncover a new relation between Closeness centrality and the Condorcet principle. We define a Condorcet winner in a graph as a node that compared to any other node is closer to more nodes. In other words, if we assume that nodes vote on a closer candidate, a Condorcet winner would win a two-candidate election against any other node in a plurality ...

Temporal Degree-Degree and Closeness-Closeness: A New Centrality Metrics for Social Network Analysis

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
In the area of network analysis, centrality metrics play an important role in defining the “most important” actors in a social network. However, nowadays, most types of networks are dynamic, meaning their topology changes over time.

δ-Space for real-world networks: A correlation analysis of decay centrality vs. degree centrality and closeness centrality

open access: yesJournal of King Saud University: Computer and Information Sciences, 2018
We analyze a suite of 48 real-world networks and compute the decay centrality (DEC) of the vertices for the complete range of values for the decay parameter δ ∊ (0, 1) as well as determine the Pearson's correlation coefficient (PCC) between the DECδ ...

Computing classic closeness centrality, at scale [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the second ACM conference on Online social networks, 2014
Closeness centrality, first considered by Bavelas (1948), is an importance measure of a node in a network which is based on the distances from the node to all other nodes. The classic definition, proposed by Bavelas (1950), Beauchamp (1965), and Sabidussi (1966), is (the inverse of) the average distance to all other nodes.
