Towards a Methodology for Validation of Centrality Measures in Complex Networks
Figure 8
In the Dolphin Social Network, the graphs show a correlation between the frequency of the nodes and the centrality in the dolphin social network with n = 62.
Figure 8a shows the Degree Centrality; there is only one node having maximum value and 9 nodes having the minimum value . Figure 8b shows the Betweenness Centrality; there is only one node having maximum value and 22 nodes having the minimum value . Figure 8c shows the Closeness Centrality; there are 4 nodes having maximum value and only one node having the minimum value . Figure 8d shows the Eccentricity Centrality; there are 10 nodes having maximum value and 8 nodes having the minimum value . Figure 8e shows the Eigenvector Centrality; there is only one node having maximum value and 22 nodes having the minimum value . (a) Degree Centrality. (b) Betweenness Centrality. (c) Closeness Centrality. (d) Eccentricity Centrality. (e) Eigenvector Centrality.
