Abstract

Dynamic networks raise new challenges for knowledge discovery. To efficiently handle this kind of data, analysis methods have to decompose the network, modelled by a graph, into similar sets of nodes. In this article, we present a graph decomposition algorithm that generates overlapping clusters. The complexity of this algorithm is \(O(|E| \cdot deg^2_{max} + |V| \cdot log(|V|))\). This algorithm is particularly efficient because it can detect major changes in the data as it evolves over time.
