Detecting Topic-oriented Overlapping Community Using Hybrid a Hypergraph Model

摘要

A large number of emerging information networks brings new challenges to the overlapping community detection. The meaningful community should be topic-oriented. However, the topology-based methods only reflect the strength of connection, but ignore the consistency of the topics. This paper explores a topic-oriented overlapping community detection method for information work. The method utilizes a hybrid hypergraph model to combine the node content and structure information naturally. Two connections for hyperedge pair, including real connection and virtual connection are defined. A novel hyperedge pair similarity measure is proposed by combining linearly extended common neighbors metric for real connection and incremental fitness for virtual connection. Extensive experiments on two real-world datasets validate our proposed method outperforms other baseline algorithms.
