Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Spectral graph theory gives an algebraical approache to analyze network structure by using a matrix . However, in large social networks, it is difficult to know the details of its network structure, and we cannot expect that a matrix representing the network structure is given as a priori knowledge. The objective of this research is to give a method to analyze the characteristics of a large social network by using the universal nature of random matrices that represents the structure of networks. Existing studies have been reported that the spectral density of the normalized Laplacian matrix of the weightless link follows the semicircle law under a certain conditions. In this paper, we evaluate the spectral density of the normalized Laplacian matrix of the randomly weighted links, and investigate conditions for the spectral density to satisfy the semicircle law, experimentally. In addition, we show an application pf the proposed method to social network analysis.
