Abstract

Using centrality measures, in this research we analyzed the cities statuses in China's railway network. First, according to the L space model we built the railway network based on a train schedule. Second, different centrality measures, including degree centrality, closeness centrality and betweenness centrality, were adopted to evaluate the cities in the railway network. Finally, we investigated the patterns of different centrality measures in the network to reveal the relationship between the structure of train network and urban development.

Key words： China train network; degree centrality; closeness centrality; betweenness centrality
