This study constructs a directed weighted network among traditional village buildings based on directional similarity and utilizes social network analysis to identify influential buildings affecting spatial order. Key findings include: 1) Centrality Measures; Weighted degree, eigenvector, and betweenness centrality quantify the influence of building nodes in terms of quantity, quality, and importance, respectively. 2) Influential Buildings; High centrality buildings are not necessarily 'star buildings'. Their impact is implicit and local, contrasting with the explicit and holistic influence of...
