<p>Link prediction is a field within social network studies that aims to forecast future connections based on the structure of a social network. This paper introduces a link prediction method based on the strength and prominence of seed node pairs, referred to as the strength prominence index. In this method, we get a consistent score for any pair of nodes, regardless of whether they share a common neighbour. Several key characteristics have been identified. In our experiments, we used three well-known estimators to evaluate the accuracy of link prediction algorithms: precision, area under the precision-recall curve, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. A comparative study with existing methods is also presented, supported by relevant graphs and tables. Validation using Facebook data sets demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.</p>
