PCA likelihood ratio test approach for attributed social networks monitoring
M. Shaghaghi, Abbas Saghaei · Communication in Statistics- Theory and Methods · 2020
One of the most important factors in building and changing communication mechanisms in social networks is considering features of the members of social networks. Most of the existing methods in network monitoring don’t consider effects of features in network formation mechanisms and others don’t lead to reliable results when the features abound or when there are correlations among them. In this article, we combined two methods principal component analysis (PCA) and likelihood method to monitor the underlying network model when the features of individuals abound and when some of them have high correlations with each other.
