Closeness Centrality in Directed Graphs

  • In the matrix below, write down the cell entries geodesic distance matrix corresponding to the graph shown in Figure 2:
A B C D E F G H I J K
A ----
B ----
C ----
D ----
E ----
F ----
G ----
H ----
I ----
J ----
K ----

Using the information in the above matrix, rank all the nodes in the graph shown in Figure 2 by their closeness centrality.
