The hypergraph community detection problem seeks to identify groups of related nodes in hypergraph data. We propose an information-theoretic hypergraph community detection algorithm which compresses the observed data in terms of community…

A central problem in e-commerce is determining overlapping communities among individuals or objects in the absence of external identification or tagging. We address this problem by introducing a framework that captures the notion of…
