The rapid expansion of social network provides a suitable platform for users to deliver messages. Through the social network, we can harvest resources and share messages in a very short time. The developing of social network has brought us tremendous conveniences. However, nodes that make up the network have different spreading capability, which are constrained by many factors, and the topological structure of network is the principal element. In order to calculate the importance of nodes in network more accurately, this paper defines the improved H-index centrality (IH) according to the diversity of neighboring nodes, then uses the cumulative centrality (MC) to take all neighboring nodes into consideration, and proposes the extended mixing H-index centrality (EMH). We evaluate the proposed method by Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model and monotonicity which are used to assess accuracy and resolution of the method, respectively. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method is superior to the existing measures of identifying nodes in different networks.

We study network centrality based on dynamic influence propagation models in social networks. To illustrate our integrated mathematical-algorithmic approach for understanding the fundamental interplay between dynamic influence processes and static network structures, we focus on two basic centrality measures: (a) Single Node Influence (SNI) centrality, which measures each nodes significance by its influence spread; and (b) Shapley Centrality, which uses the Shapley value of the influence spread function --- formulated based on a fundamental cooperative-game-theoretical concept --- to measure the significance of nodes. We present a comprehensive comparative study of these two centrality measures. Mathematically, we present axiomatic characterizations, which precisely capture the essence of these two centrality measures and their fundamental differences. Algorithmically, we provide scalable algorithms for approximating them for a large family of social-influence instances. Empirically, we demonstrate their similarity and differences in a number of real-world social networks, as well as the efficiency of our scalable algorithms. Our results shed light on their applicability: SNI centrality is suitable for assessing individual influence in isolation while Shapley centrality assesses individuals performance in group influence settings.
With the rapid development of Internet technology, online social networks (OSNs) have got fast development and become increasingly popular. Meanwhile, the research works across multiple social networks attract more and more attention from researchers, and community detection is an important one across OSNs for online security problems, such as the user behavior analysis and abnormal community discovery. In this paper, a community detection method is proposed across multiple social networks based on overlapping users. First, the concept of overlapping users is defined, then an algorithm CMN NMF is designed to discover the stub communities from overlapping users based on the social relevance. After that, we extend each stub community in different social networks by adding the users with strong similarity, and in the end different communities are excavated out across networks. Experimental results show the advantage on effectiveness of our method over other methods under real data sets.
Competition networks are formed via adversarial interactions between actors. The Dynamic Competition Hypothesis predicts that influential actors in competition networks should have a large number of common out-neighbors with many other nodes. We empirically study this idea as a centrality score and find the measure predictive of importance in several real-world networks including food webs, conflict networks, and voting data from Survivor.
With the growing amount of mobile social media, offline ephemeral social networks (OffESNs) are receiving more and more attentions. Offline ephemeral social networks (OffESNs) are the networks created ad-hoc at a specific location for a specific purpose and lasting for short period of time, relying on mobile social media such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Bluetooth devices. The primary purpose of people in the OffESNs is to acquire and share information via attending prescheduled events. Event Recommendation over this kind of networks can facilitate attendees on selecting the prescheduled events and organizers on making resource planning. However, because of lack of users preference and rating information, as well as explicit social relations, both rating based traditional recommendation methods and social-trust based recommendation methods can no longer work well to recommend events in the OffESNs. To address the challenges such as how to derive users latent preferences and social relations and how to fuse the latent information in a unified model, we first construct two heterogeneous interaction social networks, an event participation network and a physical proximity network. Then, we use them to derive users latent preferences and latent networks on social relations, including like-minded peers, co-attendees and friends. Finally, we propose an LNF (Latent Networks Fusion) model under a pairwise factor graph to infer event attendance probabilities for recommendation. Experiments on an RFID-based real conference dataset have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed model compared with typical solutions.
Link prediction in complex network based on solely topological information is a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a novel similarity index, which is efficient and parameter free, based on clustering ability. Here clustering ability is defined as average clustering coefficient of nodes with the same degree. The motivation of our idea is that common-neighbors are able to contribute to the likelihood of forming a link because they own some ability of clustering their neighbors together, and then clustering ability defined here is a measure for this capacity. Experimental numerical simulations on both real-world networks and modeled networks demonstrated the high accuracy and high efficiency of the new similarity index compared with three well-known common-neighbor based similarity indices: CN, AA and RA.
