Title
Social role clustering with topic model
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new role analyzing paradigm for social networks enlightened by topic modeling, which can be adopted as a primitive building block in various security related tasks, such as hidden community finding, important person recognizing and so on. We first present the social network under analyzing as a heterogeneous network constructed by both the users and the subjects discussed among them. We then view this network in a Bag-of-Users schema, which mimics its classical Bag-of-Words counterpart. In this schema, the subjects discussed are treated as “documents” while the users are treated as “words” which construct the “documents”. Based on this novel presentation, we finally apply topic modeling technology to perform the social role clustering. Experiments on a practical security-related social network dataset prove the effectiveness of our approach.
