Coupling network vertex representation learning based on network embedding method

Abstract

Network representation learning is a basic problem in network data analysis. By learning network representation vectors, network vertices can be represented more accurately. With the development of deep learning, embedding methods have been widely used for network vertex representation learning. Providing that network data have changed in terms of their scale and modality, the research focus gradually shifted from single network mining to coupling network mining. This paper first analyzes the research status of embedding methods for single networks and then compares their advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, the paper presents a model called CWCNE for coupling network embedding. The random walk and training algorithms of the proposed model are improved to adapt to coupling network features. The validity of the proposed model was verified using social, academic, film, poetry, and work coupling network data. Good results were obtained on community detection, entity recognition, and label classification tasks.
