Abstract

In this paper, we apply an efficient top-kk shortest distance routing algorithm to the link prediction problem and test its efficacy. We compare the results with other base line and state-of-the-art methods as well as with the shortest path. Our results show that using top-kk distances as a similarity measure outperforms classical similarity measures such as Jaccard and Adamic/Adar.
