Predicting the future evolution of complex systems is one of the main challenges in complexity science. Based on a current snapshot of a network, link prediction algorithms aim to predict its future evolution. We apply here link prediction algorithms to data on the international trade between countries. This data can be represented as a complex network where links connect countries with the...

In a recent work [T. Zhou, Z. Kuscsik, J.-G. Liu, M. Medo, J.R. Wakeling, Y.-C. Zhang, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 107 (2010) 4511], a personalized recommendation algorithm with high performance in both accuracy and diversity is proposed. This method is based on the hybridization of two single algorithms called probability spreading and heat conduction, which respectively are inclined to recommend...

Understanding the structure and evolution of web-based user-item bipartite networks is an important task since they play a fundamental role in online information filtering. In this paper, we focus on investigating the patterns of online users’ behavior and the effect on recommendation process. Empirical analysis on the e-commercial systems show that users’ taste preferences are heterogeneous...
