There is no, nor will there ever be, single best clustering algorithm. Nevertheless, we would still like to be able to distinguish between methods that work well on certain task types and those that systematically underperform. Clustering…

Finding communities or clusters in social networks is a fa- mous topic in social network analysis. Most algorithms are limited to static snapshots, so they cannot handle dynamics within the underlying graph. In this paper we present a…

Clustering scientific publications can reveal underlying research structures within bibliographic databases. Graph-based clustering methods, such as spectral, Louvain, and Leiden algorithms, are frequently utilized due to their capacity to…

Clustering is the technique to partition data according to their characteristics. Data that are similar in nature belong to the same cluster [1]. There are two types of evaluation methods to evaluate clustering quality. One is an external…

Measuring graph clustering quality remains an open problem. To address it, we introduce quality measures based on comparisons of intra- and inter-cluster densities, an accompanying statistical test of the significance of their differences…

Community detection is a key aspect of network analysis, as it allows for the identification of groups and patterns within a network. With the ever-increasing size of networks, it is crucial to have fast algorithms to analyze them…

Current modularity-based community detection algorithms attempt to find cluster memberships that maximize modularity within a fixed graph topology. Diverging from this conventional approach, our work introduces a novel strategy that employs…

Clustering has been widely applied to Information Retrieval (IR) on the grounds of its potential improved effectiveness over inverted file search. Clustering is a mostly unsupervised procedure and the majority of the clustering algorithms…

This paper investigates the computational and statistical limits in clustering matrix-valued observations. We propose a low-rank mixture model (LrMM), adapted from the classical Gaussian mixture model (GMM) to treat matrix-valued…

Network clustering tackles the problem of identifying sets of nodes (communities) that have similar connection patterns. However, in many scenarios, nodes also have attributes that are correlated with the clustering structure. Thus, network…

We study potential biases of popular cluster quality metrics, such as conductance or modularity. We propose a method that uses both stochastic and preferential attachment block models construction to generate networks with preset community…

Infomap clustering finds the community structures that minimize the expected description length of a random walk trajectory; algorithms for infomap clustering run fast in practice for large graphs. In this paper we leverage the…

The global energy transition towards distributed, smaller-scale resources, such as decentralized generation and flexible assets like storage and shiftable loads, demands novel control structures aligned with the emerging network…

Data clustering involves identifying latent similarities within a dataset and organizing them into clusters or groups. The outcomes of various clustering algorithms differ as they are susceptible to the intrinsic characteristics of the…

Clustering points in a vector space or nodes in a graph is a ubiquitous primitive in statistical data analysis, and it is commonly used for exploratory data analysis. In practice, it is often of interest to "refine" or "improve" a given…

Image clustering is a very useful technique that is widely applied to various areas, including remote sensing. Recently, visual representations by self-supervised learning have greatly improved the performance of image clustering. To…

Community detection algorithms attempt to find the best clusters of nodes in an arbitrary complex network. Multi-scale ("multiresolution") community detection extends the problem to identify the best network scale(s) for these clusters. The…

Community structure discovery in complex networks is a quite challenging problem spanning many applications in various disciplines such as biology, social network and physics. Emerging from various approaches numerous algorithms have been…

Clustering analysis has become a ubiquitous information retrieval tool in a wide range of domains, but a more automatic framework is still lacking. Though internal metrics are the key players towards a successful retrieval of clusters,…

Graph clustering has been studied extensively on both plain graphs and attributed graphs. However, all these methods need to partition the whole graph to find cluster structures. Sometimes, based on domain knowledge, people may have…
