Algorithm 1 Calculating the PageRank of nodes in the ACMN.
Input: M=GT,GH,GK
Output: Multiplex PageRank of nodes in M
1: Calculate the largest eigenvalue of each layer.
2: Arrange the layers in descending order of their eigenvalues as a larger eigenvalue indicates faster information dissemination [37].
3: Calculate the PageRank of the 1st layer using Equation (5).
4: Calculate the PageRank of the 2nd layer with respect to the 1st layer using Equation (6).
5: Calculate the PageRank of the 3rd layer with respect to the 2nd layer according to Equation (6).
6: Return: The PageRank of the 3rd layer is the PageRank of the ACMN.
