[docs]@not_implemented_for("directed") def second_order_centrality(G): """Compute the second order centrality for nodes of G. The second order centrality of a given node is the standard deviation of the return times to that node of a perpetual random walk on G: Parameters ---------- G : graph A NetworkX connected and undirected graph. Returns ------- nodes : dictionary Dictionary keyed by node with second order centrality as the value. Examples -------- >>> G = nx.star_graph(10) >>> soc = nx.second_order_centrality(G) >>> print(sorted(soc.items(), key=lambda x: x[1])[0][0]) # pick first id 0 Raises ------ NetworkXException If the graph G is empty, non connected or has negative weights. See Also -------- betweenness_centrality Notes ----- Lower values of second order centrality indicate higher centrality. The algorithm is from Kermarrec, Le Merrer, Sericola and Trédan [1]_. This code implements the analytical version of the algorithm, i.e., there is no simulation of a random walk process involved. The random walk is here unbiased (corresponding to eq 6 of the paper [1]_), thus the centrality values are the standard deviations for random walk return times on the transformed input graph G (equal in-degree at each nodes by adding self-loops). Complexity of this implementation, made to run locally on a single machine, is O(n^3), with n the size of G, which makes it viable only for small graphs. References ---------- ..
