Latent space models for networks with nodal multiplicative effects
带节点乘性效应的网络潜在空间模型
Latent space models represent network nodes as points in a geometric space, with connection probabilities determined by distances between latent positions under a fixed metric, typically Euclidean, spherical, or hyperbolic. We generalize the classical formulation by introducing nodal multiplicative effects motivated by a local deformation of the latent metric. This modification approximates a conformal deformation of the metric tensor while preserving the logistic predictor…
