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...

Collaborative filtering is one of the most successful recommendation techniques, which can effectively predict the possible future likes of users based on their past preferences. The key problem of this method is how to define the similarity between users. A standard approach is using the correlation between the ratings that two users give to a set of objects, such as Cosine index and Pearson...
