摘要
Link prediction in complex networks has been an attractive problem. Generally, when we obtained a snapshot of a network, we would like to infer which interactions are most likely to occur among the existing members in the future. This kind of problem has been extensively studied both from academia and industry. However, link prediction is challenging in practice. To address this issue. In this paper, we focused on the topology structure of the networks for link prediction. Two algorithms CN-LRW and CN-RWR are proposed based on local random walk and random walk with restart, respectively. We evaluate our approaches on three real data sets. Experiments show that CN-LRW and CN-RWR outperform LRW and RWR respectively in most cases. Incorporating node information with the network structure features seems promising in discovering the latent semantics of the network. Copyright © 2015 Binary Information Press.
