Graph clustering is the problem of identifying sparsely connected dense subgraphs (clusters) in a given graph. Proposed clustering algorithms usually optimize various fitness functions that measure the quality of a cluster within the graph.…

The line graphs are clustered and assortative. They share these topological features with some social networks. We argue that this similarity reveals the cliquey character of the social networks. In the model proposed here, a social network…

Community structure is largely regarded as an intrinsic property of complex real-world networks. However, recent studies reveal that networks comprise even more sophisticated modules than classical cohesive communities. More precisely,…

Network of nonlinear dynamical elements often show clustering of synchronization by chaotic instability. Relevance of the clustering to ecological, immune, neural, and cellular networks is discussed, with the emphasis of partially ordered…
We propose a model to address the overlooked problem of node clustering in simple hypergraphs. Simple hypergraphs are suitable when a node may not appear multiple times in the same hyperedge, such as in co-authorship datasets. Our model…
Clustering is typically measured by the ratio of triangles to all triples, open or closed. Generating clustered networks, and how clustering affects dynamics on networks, is reasonably well understood for certain classes of networks…
Graph-structured data provide a comprehensive description of complex systems, encompassing not only the interactions among nodes but also the intrinsic features that characterize these nodes. These features play a fundamental role in the…
Spectral clustering is a popular method for community detection in network graphs: starting from a matrix representation of the graph, the nodes are clustered on a low dimensional projection obtained from a truncated spectral decomposition…
Clustering and closure coefficients are among the most widely applied indicators in the description of the topological structure of a network. Many distinct definitions have been proposed over time, particularly in the case of weighted…
