The existing link prediction methods based on node similarity usually ignore the link strength of network topology and the weight value in the typological path method with weight is difficult to set. To solve these problems, a new prediction algorithm based on link importance and data field was proposed. Firstly, this method assigned different weight for each link according to the topology graph. Secondly, it took into account the interaction between potential link nodes and pre-estimated the link values for the partial nodes without links. Finally, it calculated the similarity between two nodes with data field potential function. The experimental results on some typical data sets of the real-world network show that, the proposed method has good performance with both classification index and recommended index. In comparison to the Local Path (LP) algorithm with the same complexity, the proposed algorithm raises Area Under Curve (AUC) by 3 to 6 percentages, and raises Discounted Cumulative Gain (DCG) by 1.5 to 2.5 points. On the whole, it improves the prediction accuracy. Because of its easy parameter determination and low time complexity, this new approach can be deployed simply.
