Abstract: In catering field, the driving force of dishes can be defined as the ability of dishes to stimulate the overall consumption growth of other dishes due to their own consumption growth. However, there is no clear method to calculate the driving force of dishes. This paper puts forward a novel method to quantify the driving force of dishes through historical bills. First, the paper extracts the characteristics of dishes contained in dataset. Secondly, the paper analyzes the relationship between the dishes to build dishes complex networks, and then based on the complex network, the paper calculates the driving force of dishes through the network spreading procedure with a propagation model. Finally, the paper validates the effectiveness of the proposed method in the real historical billing data set of a catering enterprise.

Key words:  driving force of dishes, complex network, network spread
