A Spectral Clustering Algorithm for Non-Linear Graph Embedding in Information Networks

Abstract

With the development of network technology, information networks have become one of the most important means for people to understand society. As the scale of information networks expands, the construction of network graphs and high-dimensional feature representation will become major factors affecting the performance of spectral clustering algorithms. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose a spectral clustering algorithm based on similarity graphs and non-linear deep embedding, named SEG_SC. This algorithm introduces a new spectral clustering model that explores the underlying structure of graphs through sparse similarity graphs and deep graph representation learning, thereby enhancing graph clustering performance. Experimental analysis with multiple types of real datasets shows that the performance of this model surpasses several advanced benchmark algorithms and performs well in clustering on medium- to large-scale information networks.
