Betweenness Centrality
Explore the concept of betweenness centrality to understand how nodes function as bridges within networks. Learn to compute this metric using shortest path algorithms and apply it with Python's NetworkX. This lesson helps you identify critical points of control and influence in network structures.

Introduction
Betweenness centrality is a measure used in graph theory to identify the importance of a node within a network or graph. It is based on the number of shortest paths between all pairs of nodes that pass through the node of interest. In other words, it quantifies the extent to which a particular node acts as a bridge or intermediary ...
