Vertex Clustering
Vertex Clustering is a technique used in graph theory to group vertices (or nodes) in a graph based on their connections. The goal is to identify clusters where vertices are more densely connected to each other than to those in other clusters. This can help in understanding the structure of complex networks, such as social networks or biological systems.
In data analysis, vertex clustering can improve the efficiency of algorithms by reducing the size of the problem. By focusing on clusters instead of individual vertices, researchers can simplify computations and gain insights into the relationships and patterns within the data.
