Abstract

Over the past two decades, a wide range of models has been developed to capture pairwise interactions represented in graphs. However, modern applications in various fields have highlighted the necessity to consider high-order interactions, which involve groups of three or more nodes. Simple examples include triadic and larger group interactions in social networks, scientific co-authorship, interactions among more than two species in ecological systems, or high-order correlations between neurons in brain networks.

This talk will discuss approaches to node clustering in hypergraphs, from 2 point of views: modularity maximization and stochastic blockmodels fitting. We will describe recent results and remaining challenges in this area.
