Recent research trends in network science are shifting from the analysis of single-layer networks to the analysis of multilayer networks. In particular, the robustness of multilayer networks has been actively studied. There exist two popular multilayer network models: one is interdependent network, and the other is multiplex network. We aim to construct a methodology for effectively improving the robustness of multiplex networks against layer node-based attack. As the first step to achieve this goal, in this paper, we examine the effectiveness of existing link addition strategies, which are proposed for interdependent networks, for improving the robustness of multiplex networks. Through the network attack simulations, we show that the strategic link addition can effectively improve the robustness of multiplex networks. Moreover, link addition strategies are suggested to be effective particularly when a large number of nodes are attacked.
