摘要

Strategies for network immunization have been drawing wide interest in the area of complex networks during the past decade. The target strategy, in which degree values are used to determine vaccinating priority, has been supposed to be the most effective strategy. In many networks where large numbers of nodes exists with same degree values, the target strategy will face a problem of deciding the priorities of nodes with equal degree. This paper discussed a refined method to evaluate priority using risk-value. With risk-values, an improved target immunization strategy is proposed. Simulations under SIS model using real network dataset have proved a better efficiency for the improved strategy.
