Abstract

Important nodes in social networks have a decisive influence on the network structure and function. Developing more accurate ranking algorithms has become one of the current research hotspots. LR (LeaderRank) introduces a Ground node, significantly improving the performance of the classic PageRank. However, it still faces the voting bias problem of users with small out-degrees in the network. Therefore, we propose AGR (Adaptive GraphRank) , a self-adaptive algorithm for ranking important nodes in social networks enhanced by Ground Graph. AGR constructs a multi-node Ground Graph to replace LR's single Ground node and designs a biased random walk based on the H-index to alleviate voting bias. Preliminary parameter experiments determined the optimal scale and structure of the Ground Graph. Comparative experiments with excellent existing algorithms such as K-TOPSIS verified AGR's performance improvements in three key dimensions: propagation, disintegration, and robustness. A real-world case study further demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm in practical scenarios. In conclusion, AGR effectively reduces voting bias, improves ranking accuracy, and shows superior performance and application potential.
