论文摘要
本文提供了最初在2020年2月在对话中发表的文章的技术细节。目的是使用中心措施分析电影明星的社交网络,从而确定电影业务中最“重要”的演员。该分析以逐步的,类似教程的方式介绍,并将Python编程语言与NetworkX库一起使用。它揭示了网络中最中心的演员是那些具有漫长的表演职业的人,例如克里斯托弗·李(Christopher Lee),纳萨尔(Nassar),苏库玛里(Sukumari),迈克尔·凯恩(Michael Caine),奥姆·普里(Om Puri),杰基·陈(Jackie Chan)和罗伯特·德·尼罗(Robert De Niro)。我们还为每十年的电影发行提供了类似的结果。这些表明,自千年之初以来,最中心的演员包括安吉丽娜·朱莉(Angelina Jolie),婆罗门兰丹(Brahmanandam),塞缪尔·杰克逊(Samuel L. Jackson),纳萨尔(Nassar)和本·金斯利(Ben Kingsley)等人。
This paper provides the technical details of an article originally published in The Conversation in February 2020. The purpose is to use centrality measures to analyse the social network of movie stars and thereby identify the most "important" actors in the movie business. The analysis is presented in a step-by-step, tutorial-like fashion and makes use of the Python programming language together with the NetworkX library. It reveals that the most central actors in the network are those with lengthy acting careers, such as Christopher Lee, Nassar, Sukumari, Michael Caine, Om Puri, Jackie Chan, and Robert De Niro. We also present similar results for the movie releases of each decade. These indicate that the most central actors since the turn of the millennium include people like Angelina Jolie, Brahmanandam, Samuel L. Jackson, Nassar, and Ben Kingsley.
