Most existing semi-supervised graph-based clustering methods exploit the supervisory information by either refining the affinity matrix or directly constraining the low-dimensional representations of data points. The affinity matrix…

Spectral clustering is a widely used method for community detection in networks. We focus on a semi-supervised community detection scenario in the Partially Labeled Stochastic Block Model (PL-SBM) with two balanced communities, where a…

Clustering can be used to extract insights from data or to verify some of the assumptions held by the domain experts, namely data segmentation. In the literature, few methods can be applied in clustering qualitative values using the context…

Clustering techniques create hierarchal network structures, called clusters, on an otherwise flat network. In a dynamic environment-in terms of node mobility as well as in terms of steadily changing device parameters-the clusterhead…

Model sets play a fundamental role in structure analysis of quasicrystals. The diffraction diagram of a quasicrystal admits as symmetry group a finite group G, and there is a G-cluster C (union of orbits of G) such that the quasicrystal can…

Quasi-isometries are mappings on graphs, with distance-distortions parameterized by a multiplicative factor and an additive constant. The distance-distortions of quasi-isometries are in a general form that captures a wide range of…

Clustering is an unsupervised machine learning methodology where unlabeled elements/objects are grouped together aiming to the construction of well-established clusters that their elements are classified according to their similarity. The…

In this paper, we establish a method for model order reduction of a certain class of physical network systems. The proposed method is based on clustering of the vertices of the underlying graph, and yields a reduced order model within the…

This paper presents a neural network-based end-to-end clustering framework. We design a novel strategy to utilize the contrastive criteria for pushing data-forming clusters directly from raw data, in addition to learning a feature embedding…

Hierarchical clustering is a critical task in numerous domains. Many approaches are based on heuristics and the properties of the resulting clusterings are studied post hoc. However, in several applications, there is a natural cost function…

Anchor-based techniques reduce the computational complexity of spectral clustering algorithms. Although empirical tests have shown promising results, there is currently a lack of theoretical support for the anchoring approach. We define a…

We present a hierarchical maximum-margin clustering method for unsupervised data analysis. Our method extends beyond flat maximum-margin clustering, and performs clustering recursively in a top-down manner. We propose an effective greedy…

Mining dense quasi-cliques is a well-known clustering task with applications ranging from social networks over collaboration graphs to document analysis. Recent work has extended this task to multiple graphs; i.e. the goal is to find groups…

We study hierarchical clusterings of metric spaces that change over time. This is a natural geometric primitive for the analysis of dynamic data sets. Specifically, we introduce and study the problem of finding a temporally coherent…

Hierarchical clustering is one of the most powerful solutions to the problem of clustering, on the grounds that it performs a multi scale organization of the data. In recent years, research on hierarchical clustering methods has attracted…

Clustering is indispensable for data analysis in many scientific disciplines. Detecting clusters from heavy noise remains challenging, particularly for high-dimensional sparse data. Based on graph-theoretic framework, the present paper…

In this work we present a clustering technique called \textit{multi-level conformal clustering (MLCC)}. The technique is hierarchical in nature because it can be performed at multiple significance levels which yields greater insight into…

We propose a new method for hierarchical clustering based on the optimisation of a cost function over trees of limited depth, and we derive a message--passing method that allows to solve it efficiently. The method and algorithm can be…

The structure of many complex networks includes edge directionality and weights on top of their topology. Network analysis that can seamlessly consider combination of these properties are desirable. In this paper, we study two important…

Square contingency tables are traditionally analyzed with a focus on the symmetric structure of the corresponding probability tables. We view probability tables as elements of a simplex equipped with the Aitchison geometry. This perspective…
