Adaptive Cannistraci-Hebb Network Automata Modelling of Complex Networks for Path-based Link Prediction
Many complex networks have partially observed or evolving connectivity, making link prediction a fundamental task. Topological link prediction infers missing links using only network topology, with applications in social, biological, and technological systems. The Cannistraci-Hebb (CH) theory provides a topological formulation of Hebbian learning, grounded on two pillars: (1) the minimization of external links within local communities, and (2) the path-based definition of local communities that capture homophilic (similarity-driven) interactions via paths of length 2 and synergetic (diversitydriven) […]
