Hello,
After analysis, I have received all closeness centrality as zero '0' for scaled and unscaled.
Please see attached.

Shakir

The only way to get closeness centrality = 0 is if your network has no links (or only self loops)
Check the network editor to see how your network looks (or better yet visualize it)

Dear Shakir,

The reason why closeness centrality is zero in your case is due to the fact that you have a bimodal network where the source and target nodes are not the same nodes. Closeness centrality is defined only for unimodal networks.

Hope this helps!
