A survey of Data Mining techniques on information networks

Abstract

An Information Network is the network formed by the interconnectivity of the objects formed due to the interaction between them. In our day-to-day life we can find these information networks like the social media network, the network formed by the interaction of web ob-jects etc. This paper presents a survey of various Data Mining techniques that can be applicable to information networks. The Data Min-ing techniques of both homogeneous and heterogeneous information networks are discussed in detail and a comparative study on each problem category is showcased.
