[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-9975) Add Normalized Closeness Centrality to Spark GraphX

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-9975?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15124375#comment-15124375 ] 

Stavros Kontopoulos commented on SPARK-9975:
--------------------------------------------

Betweenness centrality seems straightforward to add too. What do you think?

> “Closeness centrality” is also defined as a proportion. First, the distance of a vertex from all other vertices in the network is counted. Normalization is achieved by defining closeness centrality as the number of other vertices divided by this sum (De Nooy et al., 2005, p. 127). Because of this normalization, closeness centrality provides a global measure about the position of a vertex in the network, while betweenness centrality is defined with reference to the local position of a vertex. -- Cited from http://arxiv.org/pdf/0911.2719.pdf
> This request is to add normalized closeness centrality as a core graph algorithm in the GraphX library. I implemented this algorithm for a graph processing extension to Neo4j (https://github.com/kbastani/neo4j-mazerunner#supported-algorithms) and I would like to put it up for review for inclusion into Spark. This algorithm is very straight forward and builds on top of the included ShortestPaths (SSSP) algorithm already in the library.
