HITSCentrality

HITSCentrality[g]

gives a list of authority and hub centralities for the vertices in the graph g.

HITSCentrality[{vw,…}]

uses rules vw to specify the graph g.

Details and Options

  • HITSCentrality is also known as Kleinberg centrality.
  • HITSCentrality gives two lists of authority centralities and hub centralities for each vertex.
  • If the graph g has adjacency matrix , then authority centralities are given by TemplateBox[{a}, Transpose].a.x=lambda_1 x, where is the largest eigenvalue of TemplateBox[{a}, Transpose].a, and hub centralities are given by . »
  • The authority and hub centralities satisfy and x=1/lambda_1TemplateBox[{a}, Transpose].y. »
  • The option WorkingPrecision->p can be used to control the precision used in internal computations.
  • HITSCentrality works with undirected graphs, directed graphs, multigraphs, and mixed graphs.

Properties & Relations  (4)

The authority and hub centrality can be found using the first eigenvector of :

Authority centrality:

Hub centrality:

The authority and hub centralities satisfy and x=TemplateBox[{{{1, /, {lambda, _, 1}}, a}}, Transpose].y:

The authority centrality is normalized:

Use VertexIndex to obtain the authority centrality and hub centrality of a specific vertex:
