Title: Incorporating node attributes in community detection for multilayer networks

Abstract:
In this seminar we will show a new approach for community detection in multilayer and attributed networks. The goal is to assign each network node to clusters by incorporating both the information carried by nodes' attributes and the connectivity patterns in each layer. This is a challenging inference task as one needs to properly combine two types of information and thus leverage the extent to which topological and attribute information contribute to the network's partition. Specifically, we incorporate nodes' attributes into a probabilistic framework to uncover groups of nodes that are structurally close but also share some common characteristics. We illustrate its behavior on synthetic and real data.
