Link prediction in complex networks has attracted increasing attention from both physical and computer science communities. The algorithms can be used to extract missing information, identify spurious interactions, evaluate network evolving mechanisms, and so on. This article summaries recent progress about link prediction algorithms, emphasizing on the contributions from physical perspectives and approaches, such as the random-walk-based methods and the maximum likelihood methods. We also introduce three typical applications: reconstruction of networks, evaluation of network evolving mechanism and classification of partially labeled networks. Finally, we introduce some applications and outline future challenges of link prediction algorithms.read more

Developments in the theory of randomized shortest paths with a comparison of graph node distances
TL;DR: The theory of one family of graph node distances, known as the randomized shortest path dissimilarity, is developed, which has its foundation in statistical physics and can be easily computed in closed form for all pairs of nodes of a graph.

Graph regularized nonnegative matrix factorization for temporal link prediction in dynamic networks
Xiaoke Ma,Penggang Sun,Yu Wang +2 more
TL;DR: A novel graph regularized nonnegative matrix factorization algorithm (GrNMF) for the temporal link prediction problem without collapsing the dynamic networks is proposed, which exhibits significantly improved accuracy by avoiding the collapse of temporal networks.

Cross View Link Prediction by Learning Noise-resilient Representation Consensus
TL;DR: This paper aims to bridge the information gap by learning a robust consensus for link-based and attribute-based representations so that nodes become comparable in the latent space and develops an alternating optimization framework to solve the problem.

Change we can believe in: Comparing longitudinal network models on consistency, interpretability and predictive power
TL;DR: It is concluded that the TERGM has, in contrast to the ERGM, no consistent interpretation on tie-level probabilities, as well as no consistentinterpretation on processes of network change.

Collective dynamics of small-world networks
TL;DR: Simple models of networks that can be tuned through this middle ground: regular networks ‘rewired’ to introduce increasing amounts of disorder are explored, finding that these systems can be highly clustered, like regular lattices, yet have small characteristic path lengths, like random graphs.

Equation of state calculations by fast computing machines
TL;DR: In this article, a modified Monte Carlo integration over configuration space is used to investigate the properties of a two-dimensional rigid-sphere system with a set of interacting individual molecules, and the results are compared to free volume equations of state and a four-term virial coefficient expansion.

Emergence of Scaling in Random Networks
TL;DR: A model based on these two ingredients reproduces the observed stationary scale-free distributions, which indicates that the development of large networks is governed by robust self-organizing phenomena that go beyond the particulars of the individual systems.

The meaning and use of the area under a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
TL;DR: A representation and interpretation of the area under a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve obtained by the "rating" method, or by mathematical predictions based on patient characteristics, is presented and it is shown that in such a setting the area represents the probability that a randomly chosen diseased subject is (correctly) rated or ranked with greater suspicion than a random chosen non-diseased subject.

Statistical mechanics of complex networks
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple model based on the power-law degree distribution of real networks was proposed, which was able to reproduce the power law degree distribution in real networks and to capture the evolution of networks, not just their static topology.
