Title: Analysis of weighted temporal networks represented by time slices
Authors: Vladimir Batagelj - IMFM (Slovenia) [presenting]
Abstract: A problem that often arises in the analysis of weighted networks is the dominance of a few units. It can be avoided by appropriate normalization of network weights (Markov, Salton, Jaccard, Balasza, etc.). Various skeletons (spanning tree, Pathfinder, 1-neighbors, 2-neighbors, etc.) can be used to reveal the basic structure of the network. By analyzing them between successive slices, we can reveal the main changes in the evolution of the temporal network. The approach will be demonstrated by the example of the evolution of the international trade network.
