Contribution Analysis for Assessing Node Importance Indices with Principal Component Analysis
it is interest to study the influences of different nodes on the key nodes in the network
and build or select the proper node importance index to model it.This paper selects seven node importance indices to calculate and analyze their contributions in nodes' importance evaluation with Principal Component Analysis.Seven empirical networks are used for experiments.Moreover
the order of different contributions of indices is obtained
and the correlation analysis between the most important index and the other indices is carried out using the Kendall coefficient
and factors affecting the correlation coefficient are also discussed.This paper provides a way to select the node importance index in the network
and the results could also be used for studying the relationships between different nodes.
