DataXDay - Exploring graphs: looking for communities & leaders
•
0 gefällt mir•192 views
Ever been stuck in a data science use case where any approach seems too hard? Graph theory, describing a system just in terms of nodes and links, could be your answer! In the practical example we’ll show, we’ll try to find data science communities and their leaders in LinkedIn. Challenge accepted? Aurélia Nègre & Alberto Guggiola - Quantmetry https://dataxday.fr/

- 11. @DataXDay@DataXDay Some use cases of graph theory Spreading • Determine the speed of a spreading phenomenon • How to speed it up or to slow it down? Viral marketing, vaccination campaigns Dynamics & optimisation • Shortest path between two nodes? • Effects of modifying the structure? Transportation systems, social networks Domino effects • Resilience to random failures? • And to targeted attacks? Security systems, economics, infrastructures Structural importance • Which nodes are the most important or authoritatives? Who are the leaders?

- 16. @DataXDay@DataXDay Girvan Newman: a good algorithm on small graphs (<500 nodes), but a very high complexity Walktrap : much more efficient on large graphs Two examples Random walk on a network: path following randomly chosen edges on the graph Community « strength »: proportional to the time a random walker spends inside it Cut the bridges: iteratively remove links with highest betweenness Community are found when the graph becomes disconnected © Quantmetry 2018 | Diffusion interdite sans accord

- 19. @DataXDay@DataXDay • I measure the capability to reconstruct real, known communities • Example of metrics: Normalized Mutual Information I observe the truth: the known communities Testing the algorithms and measuring the performances I create the truth: the Stochastic Block Model • I define the probability for each couple of nodes to be connected • In the simplest case: 𝑝() = ? 𝐴 𝑖𝑓 𝑖, 𝑗 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑚𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑦 𝐵 < 𝐴 𝑖𝑓 𝑛𝑜𝑡 • More links inside communities as a consequence • Many observations can be generated to test algorithms © Quantmetry 2018 | Diffusion interdite sans accord
- 20. @DataXDay@DataXDay Look at modularity of best solution: if <0.3, not a real community structure Possible causes: • On generated data, intra and inter-community probability of links are too close • On real networks, the known communities do not influence the structure • The approximated solution is too far from the global optimum Possible follow-up: • NLP + graphs: groups of people discussing about a certain topic But sometimes, there is just no pattern to be discovered … © Quantmetry 2018 | Diffusion interdite sans accord

- 23. @DataXDay@DataXDay Different ways of measuring nodes importance A global importance : the betweenness centrality A local importance : the degree Is the node « well connected »? Count its number of direct neighbours Is the node a « bridge »? Count number of shortest paths passing through it A well known, iterative metric : Google PageRank -> Is the node connected to many important nodes ? © Quantmetry 2018 | Diffusion interdite sans accord
