Abstract

Link prediction has drawn significant attention from researchers in recent years due to the rapid growth of social networks. The link prediction problem identifies the missing and future links in online social networks. Most traditional methods focus on the node and edge centrality measures to predict missing links using local and global features. These methods do not consider the advantage of both local and global features. However, some quasi-local metrics have been proposed to overcome the disadvantages of local and global centrality measures. This paper uses local and global topological features to generate likelihood feature scores for the proposed neural network model NN-LP-CF. The proposed model generates a likelihood score to predict missing links. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of NN-LP-CF over traditional centrality measures over different performance metrics.
