  2. Closeness centrality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closeness_centrality

    In a connected graph, closeness centrality (or closeness) of a node is a measure of centrality in a network, calculated as the reciprocal of the sum of the length of the shortest paths between the node and all other nodes in the graph. Thus, the more central a node is, the closer it is to all other nodes. The number next to each node is the ...

  3. Centrality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrality

    In a connected graph, the normalized closeness centrality (or closeness) of a node is the average length of the shortest path between the node and all other nodes in the graph. Thus the more central a node is, the closer it is to all other nodes.

  4. Katz centrality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katz_centrality

    t. e. In graph theory, the Katz centrality or alpha centrality of a node is a measure of centrality in a network. It was introduced by Leo Katz in 1953 and is used to measure the relative degree of influence of an actor (or node) within a social network. [1] Unlike typical centrality measures which consider only the shortest path (the geodesic ...

  5. Similarity (network science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_(network_science)

    Similarity in network analysis occurs when two nodes (or other more elaborate structures) fall in the same equivalence class. There are three fundamental approaches to constructing measures of network similarity: structural equivalence, automorphic equivalence, and regular equivalence. [1] There is a hierarchy of the three equivalence concepts ...

  6. Hierarchical closeness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_closeness

    Hierarchical closeness (HC) is a structural centrality measure used in network theory or graph theory. It is extended from closeness centrality to rank how centrally located a node is in a directed network. While the original closeness centrality of a directed network considers the most important node to be that with the least total distance ...

  7. Betweenness centrality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betweenness_centrality

    Betweenness centrality. An undirected graph colored based on the betweenness centrality of each vertex from least (red) to greatest (blue). In graph theory, betweenness centrality is a measure of centrality in a graph based on shortest paths. For every pair of vertices in a connected graph, there exists at least one shortest path between the ...

  8. Jaccard index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaccard_index

    Intersection over union as a similarity measure for object detection on images – an important task in computer vision. The Jaccard index, also known as the Jaccard similarity coefficient, is a statistic used for gauging the similarity and diversity of sample sets. It is defined in general taking the ratio of two sizes (areas or volumes), the ...

  9. Normalization (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalization_(statistics)

    In statistics and applications of statistics, normalization can have a range of meanings. [1] In the simplest cases, normalization of ratings means adjusting values measured on different scales to a notionally common scale, often prior to averaging. In more complicated cases, normalization may refer to more sophisticated adjustments where the ...
