Dynamic Infinite Relational Model for Time-varying Relational Data Analysis

Katsuhiko Ishiguro · Tomoharu Iwata · Naonori Ueda · Josh Tenenbaum


Abstract:

We propose a new probabilistic model for analyzing dynamic evolutions of relational data, such as additions, deletions and split & merge, of relation clusters like communities in social networks. Our proposed model abstracts observed time-varying object-object relationships into relationships between object clusters. We extend the infinite Hidden Markov model to follow dynamic and time-sensitive changes in the structure of the relational data and to estimate a number of clusters simultaneously. We show the usefulness of the model through experiments with synthetic and real-world data sets.
