1. A method for a first computer system to perform decentralized network topology adaptation in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network, the method comprising:
obtaining first attribute information associated with the first computer system;
obtaining second attribute information associated with a second computer system that is connected with the first computer system in the P2P network, wherein the second attribute information specifies an egocentric representation, associated with the second computer system, of how the second computer system interacts with identity representations of other nodes in the P2P network;
based on the first attribute information and the second attribute information, generating a connection confidence prediction associated with a connection between the first computer system and the second computer system, wherein the connection confidence prediction indicates whether the connection is a suboptimal connection associated with a suboptimal network topology in the P2P network;
determining whether the connection confidence prediction satisfies a break condition that is configured to detect the suboptimal connection; and
in response to determination that the connection confidence prediction satisfies the break condition, breaking the connection between the first computer system and the second computer system, but otherwise maintaining the connection.
