On the Ability of Graph Coloring Heuristics to Find Substructures in Social Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
Social network is a graph G = [V,E], in which each vertex from V corresponds to a person and each edge from E describes, that two persons know each other. Social substructure of size m is defined as a clique Km in social network G with m of its vertices. In other words, in a social substructure, everybody knows everybody. In this paper, we study the complementary graph G, in which edges represent persons, who do not know each other. By solving the graph coloring problem with a proper heuristic over this graph, one can find social substructures without any additional information. We define this strategy as the uninformed approach to substructure discovery. Thus, the natural interpretation is assigned to the substructures by user of the method. Our experiments were performed using a well-known tabu search algorithm for the graph coloring problem, called TabuCol [6]. Experimental results are presented on several artificial social networks and one instance of real data.

A Novel Approach for Detecting Relationships in Social Networks Using Cellular Automata Based Graph Coloring
All the social networks can be modeled as a graph, where each roles as vertex and each relationroles as an edge. The graph can be show as G = [V;E], where V is the set of vertices and E is theset of edges. All social networks can be segmented to K groups, where there are members in eachgroup with same features. In each group each person knows other individuals and is in touch ...

Communication security of wireless sensor networks is achieved using cryptographic keys assigned to the nodes. Due to resource constraints in such networks, random key pre-distribution schemes are of high interest. Although in most of these schemes no location information is considered, there are scenarios that location information can be obtained by nodes after their deployment. In this paper,...
متن کاملA practical algorithm for [r, s, t]-coloring of graph
Coloring graphs is one of important and frequently used topics in diverse sciences. In the majority of the articles, it is intended to find a proper bound for vertex coloring, edge coloring or total coloring in the graph. Although it is important to find a proper algorithm for graph coloring, it is hard and time-consuming too. In this paper, a new algorithm for vertex coloring, edge coloring an...
متن کاملA new Simulated Annealing algorithm for the robust coloring problem
The Robust Coloring Problem (RCP) is a generalization of the well-known Graph Coloring Problem where we seek for a solution that remains valid when extra edges are added. The RCP is used in scheduling of events with possible last-minute changes and study frequency assignments of the electromagnetic spectrum. This problem has been proved as NP-hard and in instances larger than 30 vertices, meta-...
