Abstract

The identification of influential nodes in complex networks is a hot topic among scholars. Classical methods commonly analyze single node information or static structures but seldom emphasize dynamic properties and the interactive influence of nodes. Here, we proposed an improved Dynamic-Sensitive centrality (IDS) method by considering the interactive influence of both the self and neighbor nodes. Based on six real aviation networks and the Susceptible Infected Recovered (SIR) spreading disease model, we simulated the actual spreading process within these networks. Relevant experiments were conducted through Kendall’s correlation coefficient, the imprecision function, and the complementary cumulative distribution function. The experimental results demonstrated that the IDS can more accurately identify the influential node and effectively differentiate the node influence in the network compared with other benchmark methods. Especially in the EU air-2 network, the IDS results in Kendall’s correlation coefficient are improved by 105% compared to the DS centrality.
