  Multilayer network analysis has become a vital tool for understanding
different relationships and their interactions in a complex system, where each
layer in a multilayer network depicts the topological structure of a group of
nodes corresponding to a particular relationship. The interactions among
different layers imply how the interplay of different relations on the topology
of each layer. For a single-layer network, network embedding methods have been
proposed to project the nodes in a network into a continuous vector space with
a relatively small number of dimensions, where the space embeds the social
representations among nodes. These algorithms have been proved to have a better
performance on a variety of regular graph analysis tasks, such as link
prediction, or multi-label classification. In this paper, by extending a
standard graph mining into multilayer network, we have proposed three methods
("network aggregation," "results aggregation" and "layer co-analysis") to
project a multilayer network into a continuous vector space. From the
evaluation, we have proved that comparing with regular link prediction methods,
"layer co-analysis" achieved the best performance on most of the datasets,
while "network aggregation" and "results aggregation" also have better
performance than regular link prediction methods.
