Abstract

The data sources of existing link prediction algorithms are mainly based on neighbors, paths, and random walk methods. The link prediction algorithms use mainly node similarity assumptions or maximum likelihood estimates. The link prediction based on neural network is still absent. Some research achievements based on neural network show that the DeepWalk algorithm based on neural network is an efficient network representation learning algorithm, which can more effectively learn the network structure features in the network. It has been proven that DeepWalk is equivalent to factorize the target matrix. Therefore, this paper proposed a link prediction algorithm(LPMF) based on matrix factorization of DeepWalk. This algorithm based on matrix factorization used the DeepWalk algorithm to get the network representation vectors. And then, it calculated the similarities between node pairs of nodes by the cosine similarity method. Based on that, the similarity matrix of the target network was constructed. Finally, this paper used the similarity matrix to conduct the link prediction experiments on three real-world citation networks. The experimental results show that the new method is superior to the existing 20 kinds of link prediction algorithms, which fully shows that LPMF can effectively find the structural correlation between nodes in the network, and performs a more excellent performance in the actual tasks of link prediction.
