Bias-Adjusted Spectral Clustering in Multi-Layer Stochastic Block Models
多层随机块模型中的偏差校正谱聚类
We consider the problem of estimating common community structures in multi-layer stochastic block models, where each single layer may not have sufficient signal strength to recover the full community structure. In order to efficiently aggregate signal across different layers, we argue that the sum-of-squared adjacency matrices contain sufficient signal even when individual layers are very sparse. Our method uses a bias-removal step that is necessary when the squared noise…
