Abstract
The measurement of network topology through various spatial topological indices like Alpha, Beta and Gamma are widely used for spatial data analysis. However, explaining the classification of the network topology of a city based on Alpha, Beta and Gamma indices is not conclusive, as the result of individual indices are different. To address an efficient classification of network topology, a Modified Synthetic Indicator (MSI) has been proposed and criticised over existing synthetic indicators based on the Composite Weighted Connectivity Index (CWCI), the linear combination of Alpha, Beta and Gamma indices. Application of the proposed MSI in micro-level (ward level) classification of network topology i.e., road network connectivity, has been verified in Agartala City and calibrates the efficiency of CWCI over Alpha, Beta and Gamma indices. The study reveals that the proposed CWCI is more robust than any individual graph-theoretic measure.
期刊介绍：
Annals of Data Science (ADS) publishes cutting-edge research findings, experimental results and case studies of data science. Although Data Science is regarded as an interdisciplinary field of using mathematics, statistics, databases, data mining, high-performance computing, knowledge management and virtualization to discover knowledge from Big Data, it should have its own scientific contents, such as axioms, laws and rules, which are fundamentally important for experts in different fields to explore their own interests from Big Data. ADS encourages contributors to address such challenging problems at this exchange platform. At present, how to discover knowledge from heterogeneous data under Big Data environment needs to be addressed. ADS is a series of volumes edited by either the editorial office or guest editors. Guest editors will be responsible for call-for-papers and the review process for high-quality contributions in their volumes.
