Muhtasari	Directed closeness centrality extends the classical closeness measure to directed networks by separately quantifying how quickly a node can be reached by others (in-closeness) and how quickly it can reach all others (out-closeness). It is a foundational node-level metric in social network analysis and graph theory, used wherever link direction conveys meaningful asymmetry such as citation flows, information cascades, or authority hierarchies.	Directed eigenvector centrality extends the classic eigenvector centrality to directed graphs by scoring each node according to the centrality of the nodes that point to it (in-direction) or that it points to (out-direction). A node earns a high score not merely by having many connections but by being connected to other highly central nodes, capturing asymmetric influence in citation networks, social hierarchies, and information flows.
