A modified gravity model based on network efficiency for vital nodes identification in complex networks

Vital nodes identification is an essential problem in network science. Various methods have been proposed to solve this problem. In particular, based on the gravity model, a series of improved gravity models are proposed to find vital nodes better in complex networks. However, they still have the room to be improved. In this paper, a novel and improved gravity model, which is named network efficiency gravity centrality model (NEG), integrates gravity model and network efficiency is proposed. Compared to other methods based on different gravity models, the proposed method considers the effect of the nodes on structure robustness of the network better. To solidate the superiority of the proposed method, experiments on varieties of real-world networks are carried out.
