netcenlib.algorithms.hubbell_centrality module

netcenlib.algorithms.hubbell_centrality.hubbell_centrality(network: Graph, weight: str = 'weight', weight_factor: float = 0.5) → dict[str, float][source]

Compute the Hubbell Centrality for each node in the graph G.

Ref: https://www.centiserver.org/?q1=centrality&q2=Hubbell_Index

Parameters:

  • network – NetworkX graph

  • optional) (weight_factor (float,) – The edge attribute that holds the numerical value used as a weight. By default, it is ‘weight’.

  • optional) – A scaling factor applied to the weights of the edges, representing the strength of interactions between nodes. It must be greater than 0 and less than 1 to ensure the matrix inversion needed for calculating Hubbell centrality is possible. The default value is 0.5, indicating moderate interaction strength.

Returns:

Dictionary of nodes with computed centrality as the value
