An Energy Model for Visual Graph Clustering (Long Paper)

نویسنده

  • Andreas Noack
چکیده

We introduce an energy model whose minimum energy drawings reveal the clusters of the drawn graph. Here a cluster is a set of nodes with many internal edges edges and few edges to outside nodes. The drawings of previous force and energy models do not clearly show clusters for graphs with small diameter. We formally characterize the minimum energy drawings of our energy model. This characterization shows in what sense the minimum energy drawings isolate clusters, and how the distances in the minimum energy drawings can be interpreted.

Visual Clustering of Graphs with Nonuniform Degrees

We discuss several criteria for clustering graphs, and identify two criteria which are not biased towards certain cluster sizes: the node-normalized cut (also called cut ratio) and the edge-normalized cut. We present two energy models whose minimum energy drawings reveal clusters with respect to these criteria. The energy model that corresponds to the edge-normalized cut differs from the other ...

Graph-based Visual Saliency Model using Background Color

Visual saliency is a cognitive psychology concept that makes some stimuli of a scene stand out relative to their neighbors and attract our attention. Computing visual saliency is a topic of recent interest. Here, we propose a graph-based method for saliency detection, which contains three stages: pre-processing, initial saliency detection and final saliency detection. The initial saliency map i...

Data Clustering and Graph-Based Image Matching Methods

This thesis describes our novel methods for data clustering, graph characterizing and image matching. In Chapter 3, our main contribution is the M1NN agglomerative clustering method with a new parallel merging algorithm. A cluster characterizing quantity is derived from the path-based dissimilarity measure. In Chapter 4, our main contribution is the modified log-likelihood model for quantitativ...

Detecting 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...

A partition-based algorithm for clustering large-scale software systems

Clustering techniques are used to extract the structure of software for understanding, maintaining, and refactoring. In the literature, most of the proposed approaches for software clustering are divided into hierarchical algorithms and search-based techniques. In the former, clustering is a process of merging (splitting) similar (non-similar) clusters. These techniques suffered from the drawba...
