תקציר	Bayesian Betweenness Centrality estimates how often a node lies on shortest paths in a network while explicitly quantifying uncertainty arising from incomplete, sampled, or noisy edge observations. Rather than producing a single point estimate, it yields a posterior distribution over betweenness scores, enabling credible intervals and probabilistic comparisons between nodes.	Bayesian Social Network Analysis applies Bayesian probabilistic inference to relational data, placing prior distributions over network parameters and updating them with observed tie data to yield full posterior distributions over structural features, tie probabilities, and latent actor positions. It enables principled uncertainty quantification in network models, making it especially valuable when data are sparse, partially observed, or subject to measurement error.
