Table 1: Node-based measures of connectivity.
Alpha centrality |
Indirect |
Alpha centrality of all vertices. A
generalization of eigenvector centrality to directed graphs (Bonanich
2001). |
Betweenness centrality |
Indirect |
Reflects the amount of control that
a node exerts over the interactions of other nodes in the
network. |
Closeness centrality |
Indirect |
A measure of how fast information
spreads from a given node to other reachable nodes in the network. The
Latora closeness centrality is used in networks with disconnected
components (Latora and Marchiori 2001). |
Degree centrality |
Direct |
The number of edges connected to a
node. |
Eccentricity centrality |
Indirect |
The maximum non-infinite length of
a shortest path between n and another node in the
network. |
