Introducing a procedure for developing a novel centrality measure (Sociability Centrality) for social networks using TOPSIS method and genetic algorithm

作者:

Highlights:

• A procedure for developing a novel centrality (sociability centrality) which measures nodes' social skill.

• The procedure is based on TOPSIS and Genetic Algorithm.

• The proposed centrality measure, can be applied in large scale social networks.
