RETRACTED ARTICLE: An Intelligent Centrality Measures for Influential Node Detection in COVID-19 Environment

With an advent of social networks, spamming has posted the most important serious issues among the users. These are termed as influential users who spread the spam messages in the community which has created the social and psychological impact on the users. Hence the identification of such influential nodes has become the most important research challenge. The paper proposes with a method to (1) detect a community using community algorithms with the Laplacian Transition Matrix that is the popular hashtag (2) to find the Influential nodes or users in the Community using Intelligent centrality measure's (3) The implementation of machine learning algorithm to classify the intensity of users.The extensive experimentations has been carried out using the COVID-19 datasets with the different machine learning algorithms. The methodologies SVM and PCA provide the accuracy of 98.6 than the linear regression for using the new centrality measures and the other scores like NMI, RMS, are found for the methods. As a result finding out the Influential nodes will help us find the Spammy and genuine accounts easily.
