Dense subgraph discovery applications
Recently, I compiled a collection of applications that rely on dense subgraph discovery for my KDD’15 tutorial with Aris Gionis. In general, dense subgraph discovery is a key graph mining primitive. While by “dense” we generally mean subgraphs which are large enough and contain many edges, the exact notion of dense is application dependent. The […]
k-clique densest subgraph problem
Motivation: Suppose you are given a large “who-calls-whom” network. This is a network where each vertex represents a human and we have an (undirected) edge between two humans if and only if they exchanged a phone call. An important problem that comes up in anomaly detection is finding sets of vertices that “look like” cliques. […]
