Degree centrality

Degree defines the number of links to a particular Segments

Betweenness Centrality

Betweenness centrality is number of times a node act as bridge along shortest path between two other nodes.

Closeness Centrality

The more central a node is, the closer it is to all other nodes In the given diagram the red dot has the highest closeness centrality.
