Discovering Patterns in Social Networks with Graph Matching Algorithms

چکیده
Social media data are amenable to representation by directed graphs. A node represents an entity in the social network such as a person, organization, location, or event. A link between two nodes represents a relationship such as communication, participation, or financial support. When stored in a database, these graphs can be searched and analyzed for occurrences of various subgraph patterns of nodes and links. This paper describes an interactive visual interface for constructing subgraph patterns called the Graph Matching Toolkit (GMT). GMT searches for subgraph patterns using the Truncated Search Tree (TruST) graph matching algorithm. GMT enables an analyst to draw a subgraph pattern and assign labels to nodes and links using a mouse and drop-down menus. GMT then executes the TruST algorithm to find subgraph pattern occurrences within the directed graph. Preliminary results using GMT to analyze a simulated collection of text communications containing a terrorist plot are reported.

متن کاملMining Overlapping Communities in Real-world Networks Based on Extended Modularity Gain
Detecting communities plays a vital role in studying group level patterns of a social network and it can be helpful in developing several recommendation systems such as movie recommendation, book recommendation, friend recommendation and so on. Most of the community detection algorithms can detect disjoint communities only, but in the real time scenario, a node can be a member of more than one ...

In recent years, the sampling problem in massive graphs of social networks has attracted much attention for fast analyzing a small and good sample instead of a huge network. Many algorithms have been proposed for sampling of social network’ graph. The purpose of these algorithms is to create a sample that is approximately similar to the original network’s graph in terms of properties such as de...
متن کاملDetection of Fake Accounts in Social Networks Based on One Class Classification
Detection of fake accounts on social networks is a challenging process. The previous methods in identification of fake accounts have not considered the strength of the users’ communications, hence reducing their efficiency. In this work, we are going to present a detection method based on the users’ similarities considering the network communications of the users. In the first step, similarity ...
متن کاملDetecting Overlapping Communities in Social Networks using Deep Learning
In network analysis, a community is typically considered of as a group of nodes with a great density of edges among themselves and a low density of edges relative to other network parts. Detecting a community structure is important in any network analysis task, especially for revealing patterns between specified nodes. There is a variety of approaches presented in the literature for overlapping...
