Abstract
Link prediction is an important task in the area of complex networks. Some networks can be better modeled by temporal networks where the patterns of link appearance and disappearance varying with time. However, most of the previous link prediction researches ignore the temporal behaviors of links. The temporal link prediction needs to predict future links via a known network, considering the temporal relationship of node pairs. We propose a method combining the node centrality with time series. We distinguish the contributions of common neighbors to link generation by their centralities. Compared with benchmark approaches in several temporal networks, the proposed method can improve the accuracy of temporal link prediction efficiently.
