Collaboration Profiles

In order to define and (subsequently) identify collaboration profiles, we consider well known metrics dependent on the node (Clustering Coefficient, Eigenvector, Degree and Weighted Degree) and related to the whole graph (Closeness, Eccentricity and Betweenness). From these metrics, we define four categories of collaboration profiles, each with two levels of subcategories.

Categories

Single Artists Collaboration

Multi-artists Collaboration

Nearby Collaboration

Distant Collaboration

Inter-genre Collaboration

Intra-genre Collaboration

Non Influential Collaboration

Identifying Collaboration Profiles

We can infer 16 different collaboration profiles from the main 4 categories.
The radar chart below presents the characteristics of each profile, where each characteristic is represented by a network metric.
