Link Prediction based on Quantum-Inspired Ant Colony Optimization

Abstract: Incomplete or partial observations of network structures pose a serious challenge to theoretical and engineering studies of real networks. To remedy the missing links in real datasets, topology-based link prediction is introduced into the studies of various networks. Due to the complexity of network structures, the accuracy and robustness of most link prediction algorithms are not satisfying enough. In this paper, we propose a quantum-inspired ant colony optimization algorithm that integrates ant colony optimi… Show more

“…The scale of the information used in quasi-local algorithms is between local and global algorithms. Typical quasi-local algorithms include the local random walk algorithm (LRW), local path algorithm (LP), Propflow algorithm [37], and Quantum-inspired Ant Colony Optimization (QACO) algorithm [38]. The information used in the quasi-local algorithms is normally less than the global algorithms, while their performances are often promising.…”

“…Therefore, it is selected as a component of the BGE model. b) QACO Algorithm: As a representative quasi-local algorithm, the QACO algorithm integrates ant colony optimization and quantum computing [38]. Consider an undirected network G = (V, E), and let a number of artificial ants randomly diffuse in G, where each node and node pair are respectively allocated a certain amount of pheromone.…”

“…Lately, ACO has been improved and used to solve different problems more efficiently. For example, for automated guided vehicles (Li et al, 2020), for topology-based link prediction (Cao et al, 2018) and for query optimization (Mohsin et al, 2021). These implementations are based on the parallel nature of quantum systems.…”

“…2 For example, one of the optimization challenges posed by fireflies, ants, bees, harris hawks, gray wolf optimize, spider monkey, elephant herding, and birds is their social characteristics; these characteristics have been modeled by behavior-based models. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] These societies were selected as an example for the development of similar behaviors of several scientific applications. 12,13 Kennedy and Eberhart 14 introduced a stochastic method for reaching an optimal goal called particle swarm optimization (PSO).…”
