Summary
In this paper, the authors propose a novel co-clustering framework, which takes advantage of networking information between users and tags in social media, to discover these overlapping communities. The basic ideas are:
- To discover overlapping communities in social media. Diverse interests and interactions that human beings can have in online social life suggest that one person often belongs more than one community.
- To use user-tag subscription information instead of user-user links. Metadata such as tags become an important source in measuring the user-user similarity. The paper shows that more accurate community structures can be obtained by scrutinizing tag information.
- To obtain clusters containing users and tags simultaneously. Existing co-clustering methods cluster users/tags separately. Thus, it is not clear which user cluster corresponds to which tag cluster. But the proposed method is able to find out user/tag group structure and their correspondence
