Discovering suspicious behavior in multilayer social networks

作者:

Highlights:

• Anomalies in social networks can signify suspicious and illegal behavior.

• Anomaly detection is a significant problem in social network analysis.

• Individuals can interact in multiple ways simultaneously forming multilayer networks.

• Introducing and studying anomaly detection problem on multilayer social networks.

• A network feature-based approach to rank the nodes according to their anomalousness.
