Approximation Algorithm for Shortest Path in Large Social Networks

Abstract: Proposed algorithms for calculating the shortest paths such as Dijikstra and Flowd-Warshall’s algorithms are limited to small networks due to computational complexity and cost. We propose an efficient and a more accurate approximation algorithm that is applicable to large scale networks. Our algorithm iteratively constructs levels of hierarchical networks by a node condensing procedure to construct hierarchical graphs until threshold. The shortest paths between nodes in the original network are approximated by… Show more

“…Thirdly, all these computer packages do not input the network models directly before solving the problem, rather, only the numerical part of the data is extracted from the network and inputted for solving the network problem and also the solution of the network is not presented in the network-like form rather, in tables which destroys the beauty of the network. Hence the need for our GUI where network models can be inputted directly with the solution also in a network tree and the summary represented, which is the objectives of our research (Mensah et al, 2020) [7] . The computer package was developed using the C# programming language.…”

“…This paper descriptively brings out such a meaningful cluster of sensor nodes controlled by the respective control stations using edge-fixed geodetic sets, which are determined by an algorithm with polynomial time complexity. Calculation of geodetic paths and nodes on geodetic paths in this algorithm is achieved by Floyd Warshall algorithm [7,8] with complexity O(n 3 ).…”

“…Beranek and Remes analyzed the intensity distribution and behavior characteristics of selected nodes and selected participants in the tripartite network, which further realized the systematic analysis of more complex tripartite networks [7]. Mensah et al got rid of the limitations of small-scale networks and proposed an efficient and accurate shortest path algorithm for large-scale networks [8]. Džamić et al introduced a new community structure detection standard for complex networks.…”
