Link prediction in multi-relational collaboration networks

Published:25 August 2013Publication History

ABSTRACT

Traditional link prediction techniques primarily focus on the effect of potential linkages on the local network neighborhood or the paths between nodes. In this paper, we study the problem of link prediction in networks where instances can simultaneously belong to multiple communities, engendering different types of collaborations. Links in these networks arise from heterogeneous causes, limiting the performance of predictors that treat all links homogeneously. To solve this problem, we introduce a new link prediction framework, Link Prediction using Social Features (LPSF), which weights the network using a similarity function based on features extracted from patterns of prominent interactions across the network.
