Weighted kshell degree neighborhood: A new method for identifying the influential spreaders from a variety of complex network connectivity structures

作者:

Highlights:

• A single ranking method will not yield best performance for all varieties of network.

• It is a difficult task to measure the percentage completeness of a network structure.

• We propose a new ranking method “Weighted kshell degree neighborhood method”.

• The proposed method is applicable to different varieties and large-scale networks.
