Identification of landmark nodes in complex networks has been of great interest but the parameters based on which these nodes are selected have been different in different cases. We believe that Landmarks are those nodes that occur most frequently while we explore or navigate a network. We propose 2 methods and efficient algorithms to identify these nodes. We identify these nodes using centrality measures and random walks. We show that the methods proposed are both, effective and efficient. Our approach has been extensively evaluated using synthetic environments. The results obtained verify its robustness along with its applicability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
