Degree centrality orders nodes by the number of their direct neighbors, and betweenness centrality measures the nodes' importance from the information flow point of view in a network. Degree and betweenness centrality commonly used to measure the importance of a node in a network. The Betweeness Centrality, CB (v), is a measure of the global importance of a node that assesses the proportion of shortest paths between all node pairs that pass through the node of interest. The Betweeness Centrality, CB (v) for a node of interest, v, is defined by:
