A '''preferential attachment process''' is any of a class of processes in which some quantity, typically some form of wealth or credit, is distributed among a number of individuals or objects according to how much they already have, so that those who are already wealthy receive more than those who are not. "Preferential attachment" is only the most recent of many names that have been given to such processes. They are also referred to under the names "[[Udny Yule|Yule]] process", "cumulative advantage", "the rich get richer", and, less correctly, the "[[Matthew effect (sociology)|Matthew effect]]". They are also related to [[Gibrat's law]]. The principal reason for scientific interest in preferential attachment is that it can, under suitable circumstances, generate [[power law]] distributions.

优先连接过程是一类过程，其中一些数量，通常是某种形式的财富或信贷，根据一些个人或物体已经拥有的数量分配给他们，使那些已经富有的人比那些不富有的人得到更多。”优先附加”只是给这种程序起的许多名称中最近的一个。他们还被称为“圣诞过程”、“累积优势”、“富人越来越富” ，以及不那么正确的“马太效应”。它们也与纪伯伦的法律有关。优先连接之所以受到科学研究的关注，主要是因为它能在适当的条件下产生幂律分布。
==Definition==
A preferential attachment process is a [[stochastic process|stochastic]] [[urn problem|urn process]], meaning a process in which discrete units of wealth, usually called "balls", are added in a random or partly random fashion to a set of objects or containers, usually called "urns". A preferential attachment process is an urn process in which additional balls are added continuously to the system and are distributed among the urns as an increasing function of the number of balls the urns already have. In the most commonly studied examples, the number of urns also increases continuously, although this is not a necessary condition for preferential attachment and examples have been studied with constant or even decreasing numbers of urns.

优先连接过程是一个随机的瓮过程，意味着一个过程，在这个过程中，离散的财富单位，通常称为“球” ，以随机或部分随机的方式添加到一组物体或容器，通常称为“骨灰瓮”。优先连接过程是一个瓮过程，在这个过程中，额外的球被不断地添加到系统中，并随着瓮中已有球数的增加而分布在瓮中。在最常研究的例子中，骨灰盒的数量也在不断增加，尽管这不是优先附着的必要条件，而且已研究过骨灰盒数量不变甚至减少的例子。

优先依附过程的一个典型例子是某些生物有机体的高级分类群中每个属的物种数量的增长。每当一个新出现的物种被认为与其前辈完全不同，不属于任何一个现有属时，新属(“ urns”)就被添加到分类单元中。新物种(”球”)与旧物种(即一分为二)一并加入，假设新物种与其亲本属于同一属(新属除外) ，新物种加入该属的概率将与该属已有的物种数量成正比。这个过程，首先由 Yule 研究，是一个线性优先附着过程，因为属增加新物种的速度是线性的数量，他们已经有。

In other words, the preferential attachment process generates a "[[Long tail|long-tailed]]" distribution following a [[Pareto distribution]] or [[power law]] in its tail. This is the primary reason for the historical interest in preferential attachment: the species distribution and many other phenomena are observed empirically to follow power laws and the preferential attachment process is a leading candidate mechanism to explain this behavior. Preferential attachment is considered a possible candidate for, among other things, the distribution of the sizes of cities,<ref name=SimonBiomet>{{cite journal | last=Simon | first=H.

换句话说，优先连接过程在其尾部产生一个遵循帕累托分布或幂定律的“长尾”分布。这是历史上人们对优先依附行为感兴趣的主要原因: 物种分布和许多其他现象被经验地观察，遵循幂律，优先依附过程是解释这种行为的主要候选机制。优先连接被认为是一个可能的候选人，其中包括城市规模的分布，极其富有的个人的财富，以及万维网网页的链接数量。
The general model described here includes many other specific models as special cases. In the species/genus example above, for instance, each genus starts out with a single species (''k''<sub>0</sub> = 1) and gains new species in direct proportion to the number it already has (''a'' = 0), and hence ''P''(''k'') = B(''k'', ''γ'')/B(''k''<sub>0</sub>, ''γ'' − 1) with ''γ''=2 + 1/''m''. Similarly the Price model for scientific citations<ref name=PriceJASIS /> corresponds to the case ''k''<sub>0</sub> = 0, ''a'' = 1 and the widely studied [[Barabási-Albert model]]<ref name=BAScience /> corresponds to ''k''<sub>0</sub> = ''m'', ''a'' = 0.

Similarly the Price model for scientific citations corresponds to the case k<sub>0</sub> = 0, a = 1 and the widely studied Barabási-Albert model corresponds to k<sub>0</sub> = m, a = 0.
这里描述的一般模型包括作为特殊情况的许多其他特定模型。例如，在上面的种属例子中，每个属以一个单一的种(k < sub > 0 </sub > = 1)开始，并且获得新的种(a = 0) ，因此 p (k) = b (k,)/b (k < sub > 0 </sub > ,-1) = 2 + 1/m。类似地，科学引用的价格模型对应于 k < sub > 0 </sub > = 0，a = 1，广泛研究的 Barabási-Albert 模型对应于 k < sub > 0 </sub > = m，a = 0。
Preferential attachment is sometimes referred to as the [[Matthew effect]], but the two are not precisely equivalent. The Matthew effect, first discussed by [[Robert K. Merton]],<ref>{{cite journal | last=Merton | first=Robert K. | authorlink=Robert K. Merton | title=The Matthew effect in science | journal=Science | volume=159 | pages=56–63 | year=1968 | doi=10.1126/science.159.3810.56 | pmid=17737466 | issue=3810| bibcode=1968Sci...159...56M }}</ref> is named for a passage in the [[bible|biblical]] [[Gospel of Matthew]]: "For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him." ([[Gospel of Matthew|Matthew]] [[s:Bible (New International Version)/Matthew#25:29|25:29]], [[New International Version]].) The preferential attachment process does not incorporate the taking away part. This point may be moot, however, since the scientific insight behind the Matthew effect is in any case entirely different. Qualitatively it is intended to describe not a mechanical multiplicative effect like preferential attachment but a specific human behavior in which people are more likely to give credit to the famous than to the little known. The classic example of the Matthew effect is a scientific discovery made simultaneously by two different people, one well known and the other little known. It is claimed that under these circumstances people tend more often to credit the discovery to the well-known scientist. Thus the real-world phenomenon the Matthew effect is intended to describe is quite distinct from (though certainly related to) preferential attachment.

优先依恋有时被称为马太效应，但两者并不完全等同。马太效应，最早由罗伯特·金·莫顿讨论，是根据《圣经》中的一段马太福音命名的: 每个拥有的人都会得到更多，他也将拥有更多。凡没有的、就是他所有的、也必被夺去(马太福音25:29，新国际版)优先连接过程不包括带走部分。然而，这一点可能没有实际意义，因为马太效应背后的科学洞察力在任何情况下都是完全不同的。定性地说，它的目的不是描述一种机械的乘法效应，如优先依恋，而是一种特定的人类行为，在这种行为中，人们更有可能给名人加分而不是给鲜为人知的人加分。马太效应的经典例子是两个不同的人同时做出的科学发现，其中一个是众所周知的，另一个则鲜为人知。据称，在这种情况下，人们往往更倾向于将这一发现归功于著名的科学家。因此，马太效应所要描述的现实世界现象与优先依恋(虽然肯定与优先依恋有关)是截然不同的。
==History==
The first rigorous consideration of preferential attachment seems to be that of [[Udny Yule]] in 1925, who used it to explain the power-law distribution of the number of species per genus of flowering plants.<ref name=YulePhilTrans /> The process is sometimes called a "Yule process" in his honor. Yule was able to show that the process gave rise to a distribution with a power-law tail, but the details of his proof are, by today's standards, contorted and difficult, since the modern tools of stochastic process theory did not yet exist and he was forced to use more cumbersome methods of proof.

关于优先依恋的第一个严格的考虑似乎是1925年的 Udny Yule，他用它来解释被子植物属中物种数量的幂律分布。为了纪念他，这个过程有时被称为“圣诞过程”。Yule 能够证明这个过程产生了一个带有幂律尾巴的分布，但是他的证明的细节，按照今天的标准，是扭曲和困难的，因为现代的随机过程理论工具还不存在，他被迫使用更加繁琐的证明方法。
Most modern treatments of preferential attachment make use of the [[master equation]] method, whose use in this context was pioneered by [[Herbert A. Simon|Simon]] in 1955, in work on the distribution of sizes of cities and other phenomena.<ref name=SimonBiomet />

The first application of preferential attachment to learned citations was given by [[Derek J. de Solla Price|Price]] in 1976.<ref name=PriceJASIS /> (He referred to the process as a "cumulative advantage" process.) His was also the first application of the process to the growth of a network, producing what would now be called a [[scale-free network]]. It is in the context of network growth that the process is most frequently studied today. Price also promoted preferential attachment as a possible explanation for power laws in many other phenomena, including [[Lotka's law]] of scientific productivity and [[Bradford's law]] of journal use.

普赖斯于1976年首次将优先附件应用于学术引文。(他把这个过程称为“累积优势”过程。)他也是第一个将这一过程应用于网络发展的人，他创造了现在所谓的无尺度网络网络。正是在网络增长的背景下，这一过程在今天得到了最频繁的研究。普莱斯还将优先依附作为许多其他现象中幂定律的可能解释，包括洛特卡的科学生产力定律和布拉德福德的期刊使用定律。

Linear preferential attachment processes in which the number of urns increases are known to produce a distribution of balls over the urns following the so-called Yule distribution. In the most general form of the process, balls are added to the system at an overall rate of m new balls for each new urn. Each newly created urn starts out with k<sub>0</sub> balls and further balls are added to urns at a rate proportional to the number k that they already have plus a constant a > −k<sub>0</sub>. With these definitions, the fraction P(k) of urns having k balls in the limit of long time is given by

In other words, the preferential attachment process generates a "[[Long tail|long-tailed]]" distribution following a [[Pareto distribution]] or [[power law]] in its tail. This is the primary reason for the historical interest in preferential attachment: the species distribution and many other phenomena are observed empirically to follow power laws and the preferential attachment process is a leading candidate mechanism to explain this behavior. Preferential attachment is considered a possible candidate for, among other things, the distribution of the sizes of cities,<ref name=SimonBiomet>{{cite journal | last=Simon | first=H.

换句话说，优先连接过程在其尾部产生一个遵循帕累托分布或幂定律的“长尾”分布。这是历史上人们对优先依附行为感兴趣的主要原因: 物种分布和许多其他现象被经验地观察，遵循幂律，优先依附过程是解释这种行为的主要候选机制。优先连接被认为是一个可能的候选人，其中包括城市规模的分布，极其富有的个人的财富，以及万维网网页的链接数量。
The general model described here includes many other specific models as special cases. In the species/genus example above, for instance, each genus starts out with a single species (''k''<sub>0</sub> = 1) and gains new species in direct proportion to the number it already has (''a'' = 0), and hence ''P''(''k'') = B(''k'', ''γ'')/B(''k''<sub>0</sub>, ''γ'' − 1) with ''γ''=2 + 1/''m''. Similarly the Price model for scientific citations<ref name=PriceJASIS /> corresponds to the case ''k''<sub>0</sub> = 0, ''a'' = 1 and the widely studied [[Barabási-Albert model]]<ref name=BAScience /> corresponds to ''k''<sub>0</sub> = ''m'', ''a'' = 0.

这里描述的一般模型包括作为特殊情况的许多其他特定模型。例如，在上面的种属例子中，每个属以一个单一的种(k < sub > 0 </sub > = 1)开始，并且获得新的种(a = 0) ，因此 p (k) = b (k,)/b (k < sub > 0 </sub > ,-1) = 2 + 1/m。类似地，科学引用的价格模型对应于 k < sub > 0 </sub > = 0，a = 1，广泛研究的 Barabási-Albert 模型对应于 k < sub > 0 </sub > = m，a = 0。
Preferential attachment is sometimes referred to as the [[Matthew effect]], but the two are not precisely equivalent. The Matthew effect, first discussed by [[Robert K. Merton]],<ref>{{cite journal | last=Merton | first=Robert K. | authorlink=Robert K. Merton | title=The Matthew effect in science | journal=Science | volume=159 | pages=56–63 | year=1968 | doi=10.1126/science.159.3810.56 | pmid=17737466 | issue=3810| bibcode=1968Sci...159...56M }}</ref> is named for a passage in the [[bible|biblical]] [[Gospel of Matthew]]: "For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him." ([[Gospel of Matthew|Matthew]] [[s:Bible (New International Version)/Matthew#25:29|25:29]], [[New International Version]].) The preferential attachment process does not incorporate the taking away part. This point may be moot, however, since the scientific insight behind the Matthew effect is in any case entirely different. Qualitatively it is intended to describe not a mechanical multiplicative effect like preferential attachment but a specific human behavior in which people are more likely to give credit to the famous than to the little known. The classic example of the Matthew effect is a scientific discovery made simultaneously by two different people, one well known and the other little known. It is claimed that under these circumstances people tend more often to credit the discovery to the well-known scientist. Thus the real-world phenomenon the Matthew effect is intended to describe is quite distinct from (though certainly related to) preferential attachment.

优先依恋有时被称为马太效应，但两者并不完全等同。马太效应，最早由罗伯特·金·莫顿讨论，是根据《圣经》中的一段马太福音命名的: 每个拥有的人都会得到更多，他也将拥有更多。凡没有的、就是他所有的、也必被夺去(马太福音25:29，新国际版)优先连接过程不包括带走部分。然而，这一点可能没有实际意义，因为马太效应背后的科学洞察力在任何情况下都是完全不同的。定性地说，它的目的不是描述一种机械的乘法效应，如优先依恋，而是一种特定的人类行为，在这种行为中，人们更有可能给名人加分而不是给鲜为人知的人加分。马太效应的经典例子是两个不同的人同时做出的科学发现，其中一个是众所周知的，另一个则鲜为人知。据称，在这种情况下，人们往往更倾向于将这一发现归功于著名的科学家。因此，马太效应所要描述的现实世界现象与优先依恋(虽然肯定与优先依恋有关)是截然不同的。
==History==
The first rigorous consideration of preferential attachment seems to be that of [[Udny Yule]] in 1925, who used it to explain the power-law distribution of the number of species per genus of flowering plants.<ref name=YulePhilTrans /> The process is sometimes called a "Yule process" in his honor. Yule was able to show that the process gave rise to a distribution with a power-law tail, but the details of his proof are, by today's standards, contorted and difficult, since the modern tools of stochastic process theory did not yet exist and he was forced to use more cumbersome methods of proof.

关于优先依恋的第一个严格的考虑似乎是1925年的 Udny Yule，他用它来解释被子植物属中物种数量的幂律分布。为了纪念他，这个过程有时被称为“圣诞过程”。Yule 能够证明这个过程产生了一个带有幂律尾巴的分布，但是他的证明的细节，按照今天的标准，是扭曲和困难的，因为现代的随机过程理论工具还不存在，他被迫使用更加繁琐的证明方法。
Most modern treatments of preferential attachment make use of the [[master equation]] method, whose use in this context was pioneered by [[Herbert A. Simon|Simon]] in 1955, in work on the distribution of sizes of cities and other phenomena.<ref name=SimonBiomet />

The first application of preferential attachment to learned citations was given by [[Derek J. de Solla Price|Price]] in 1976.<ref name=PriceJASIS /> (He referred to the process as a "cumulative advantage" process.) His was also the first application of the process to the growth of a network, producing what would now be called a [[scale-free network]]. It is in the context of network growth that the process is most frequently studied today. Price also promoted preferential attachment as a possible explanation for power laws in many other phenomena, including [[Lotka's law]] of scientific productivity and [[Bradford's law]] of journal use.

普赖斯于1976年首次将优先附件应用于学术引文。(他把这个过程称为“累积优势”过程。)他也是第一个将这一过程应用于网络发展的人，他创造了现在所谓的无尺度网络网络。正是在网络增长的背景下，这一过程在今天得到了最频繁的研究。普莱斯还将优先依附作为许多其他现象中幂定律的可能解释，包括洛特卡的科学生产力定律和布拉德福德的期刊使用定律。
The application of preferential attachment to the growth of the World Wide Web was proposed by [[BA model|Barabási and Albert]] in 1999.<ref name=BAScience /> Barabási and Albert also coined the name "preferential attachment" by which the process is best known today and suggested that the process might apply to the growth of other networks as well. For growing networks, the precise functional form of preferential attachment can be estimated by [[maximum likelihood estimation]].<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Pham |first1=Thong |last2=Sheridan |first2=Paul |last3=Shimodaira |first3=Hidetoshi |title=PAFit: A Statistical Method for Measuring Preferential Attachment in Temporal Complex Networks |journal=PLoS ONE |date=September 17, 2015 |volume=10 |issue=9 |doi=10.1371/journal.pone.0137796 |url=http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0137796 |pages=e0137796 |pmid=26378457 |pmc=4574777|bibcode=2015PLoSO..1037796P }}</ref>
