Automatic selection of a single solution from the Pareto front to identify key players in social networks

作者:

Highlights:

• We study the automatic selection of a single solution from the Pareto front.

• We apply it to the identification of key players in social networks.

• Several post-Pareto methods to automatically select a single solution are considered.

• These decision-making methods are tested in six different social networks.

• The HH and SDIE methods provide the best performance in most of the networks.
