Abstract

Identifying critical edges in complex networks is a fundamental challenge in the study of complex networks. Traditional approaches tend to rely solely on either global information or local information. However, this dependence on a single information source fails to capture the multi-layered complexity of critical edges, often resulting in incomplete or inaccurate identification. Therefore, it is essential to develop a method that integrates multiple sources of information to enhance critical edge identification and provide a deeper understanding and optimization of the structure and function of complex networks. In this paper, we introduce a Global-Local Hybrid Centrality method which integrates a second-order neighborhood index, a first-order neighborhood index, and an edge betweenness index, thus combining both local and global perspectives. We further employ the edge percolation process to evaluate the significance of edges in maintaining network connectivity. Experimental results on various real-world complex network datasets demonstrate that the proposed method significantly improves the accuracy of critical edge identification, providing theoretical and methodological support for the analysis and optimization of complex networks.
