Analysing Egocentric Networks via Local Structure and Centrality Measures: A Study on Chronic Pain Patients

Typical centrality measures assess the importance of a node based on the distances to other nodes, shortest paths passing through it, or the eigen-structure of the adjacency matrix. Local structure measures, on the other hand, capture network topological features by measuring how a motif is constructed from a substructure. In this paper, we discuss the suitability of several centrality measures an...
