Highlighted notes on:
An Improved PageRank Algorithm for Multilayer Networks.
While doing research work with Prof. Kishore Kothapalli.
The authors use a layer-layer weight to provide an additional factor to PR which they then use in the 1st step of SpreadMax algorithm to show that their modified pagerank is better than standard PR in selecting key nodes. I didnt properly understand this.
Applications of networks: Social networks, Air traffic systems, Transportation networks, Citation networks, Biological systems (infection spreading).
Multilayer networks can be thought of as a large graph subdivided into multiple groups (layers). This probably makes it easier to assign common weights to a particular group of nodes, edges.
