Our approach is to integrate network analysis methods with visualisation in order to address scalability and complexity issues. In particular, we defined new analysis methods such as (p,q)-core and 4-ring to identify important dense subgraphs and short cycles from the huge bipartite graphs. We applied island analysis for a specific time slice in order to identify important and meaningful subgraphs. Further, a temporal Kevin Bacon graph and a temporal two mode network are extracted in order to provide insight and knowledge on the evolution.}, author = {Ahmed, Adel and Batagelj, Vladimir and Fu, Xiaoyan and Hong, Seok-Hee and Merrick, Damian and Mrvar, Andrej}, booktitle = {Visualization, 2007.

One of such decompositions is based on “ k -cores”, proposed in 1983 by Seidman. Together with connectivity components, cores are one among few concepts that provide efficient decompositions of large graphs and networks. In this paper we propose an efficient algorithm for determining the cores decomposition of a given network with complexity $${\mathcal{O}(m)}$$, where m is the number of lines (edges or arcs). In the second part of the paper the classical concept of k -core is generalized in a way that uses a vertex property function instead of degree of a vertex. For local monotone vertex property functions the corresponding generalized cores can be determined in $${\mathcal{O}(m\cdot\max(\Delta,\log{n}))}$$ time, where n is the number of vertices and Δ is the maximum degree. Finally the proposed algorithms are illustrated by the analysis of a collaboration network in the field of computational geometry.}, address = {Berlin / Heidelberg}, affiliation = {Department of Mathematics, FMF, University of Ljubljana, Jadranska 19, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia}, author = {Batagelj, Vladimir and Zaveršnik, Matjaž}, doi = {10.1007/s11634-010-0079-y}, interhash = {a0bd7331f81bb4da72ce115d5943d6e4}, intrahash = {cd0d5266688af6bb98bde7f99e3a54c1}, issn = {1862-5347}, journal = {Advances in Data Analysis and Classification}, keyword = {Mathematics and Statistics}, number = 2, pages = {129-145}, publisher = {Springer}, title = {Fast algorithms for determining (generalized) core groups in social networks}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11634-010-0079-y}, volume = 5, year = 2011 } @incollection{batagelj1999partitioning, abstract = {The structure of large graphs can be revealed by partitioning graphs to smaller parts, which are easier to handle.
