Zou, L. (author), Zhan, Xiu xiu (author), Sun, Jie (author), Hanjalic, A. (author), Wang, H. (author)Temporal networks refer to networks like physical contact networks whose topology changes over time. Predicting future temporal network is crucial e.g., to forecast the epidemics. Existing prediction methods are either relatively accurate but black-box, or white-box but less accurate. The lack of interpretable and accurate prediction methods...journal article 2022
