However, for mining such communities usually only structural aspects are taken into account. Typically, no concise nor easily interpretable community description is provided. For tackling this issue, this paper focuses on description-oriented community detection using subgroup discovery. In order to provide both structurally valid and interpretable communities we utilize the graph structure as well as additional descriptive features of the graph’s nodes. A descriptive community pattern built upon these features then describes and identifies a community, i.e., a set of nodes, and vice versa. Essentially, we mine patterns in the “description space” characterizing interesting sets of nodes (i.e., subgroups) in the “graph space”; the interestingness of a community is evaluated by a selectable quality measure. We aim at identifying communities according to standard community quality measures, while providing characteristic descriptions of these communities at the same time. For this task, we propose several optimistic estimates of standard community quality functions to be used for efficient pruning of the search space in an exhaustive branch-and-bound algorithm. We demonstrate our approach in an evaluation using five real-world data sets, obtained from three different social media applications. %Z %U http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0020025515003667 %+ %^ %0 %0 Journal Article %A Atzmueller, Martin; Becker, Martin; Kibanov, Mark; Scholz, Christoph; Doerfel, Stephan; Hotho, Andreas; Macek, Bjoern-Elmar; Mitzlaff, Folke; Mueller, Juergen & Stumme, Gerd %D 2014 %T Ubicon and its Applications for Ubiquitous Social Computing %E %B New Review of Hypermedia and Multimedia %C %I %V 20 %6 %N 1 %P 53--77 %& %Y %S %7 %8 %9 %? %! %Z %@ %( %) %* %L %M %1 %2 %3 article %4 %# %$ %F ABKSDHMMMS:14 %K itegpub, 2014, myown %X %Z %U %+ %^ %0 %0 Journal Article %A Atzmueller, Martin; Becker, Martin; Kibanov, Mark; Scholz, Christoph; Doerfel, Stephan; Hotho, Andreas; Macek, Bjoern-Elmar; Mitzlaff, Folke; Mueller, Juergen & Stumme, Gerd %D 2014 %T Ubicon and its applications for ubiquitous social computing %E %B New Review of Hypermedia and Multimedia %C %I %V 20 %6 %N 1 %P 53-77 %& %Y %S %7 %8 %9 %? %! %Z %@ %( %) %* %L %M %1 %2 Taylor & Francis Online %3 article %4 %# %$ %F atzmueller2014ubicon %K itegpub, 2014, myown %X The combination of ubiquitous and social computing is an emerging research area which integrates different but complementary methods, techniques and tools.

This choice is influenced by different factors, such as the social context, language, cultural background and especially personal taste. Although this task is omnipresent, little research has been conducted on the analysis and application of interrelations among given names from a data mining perspective. The present work tackles the problem of recommending given names, by firstly mining for inter-name relatedness in data from the Social Web. Based on these results, the name search engine "Nameling" was built, which attracted more than 35,000 users within less than six months, underpinning the relevance of the underlying recommendation task. The accruing usage data is then used for evaluating different state-of-the-art recommendation systems, as well our new \NR algorithm which we adopted from our previous work on folksonomies and which yields the best results, considering the trade-off between prediction accuracy and runtime performance as well as its ability to generate personalized recommendations. We also show, how the gathered inter-name relationships can be used for meaningful result diversification of PageRank-based recommendation systems. As all of the considered usage data is made publicly available, the present work establishes baseline results, encouraging other researchers to implement advanced recommendation systems for given names. %Z cite arxiv:1302.4412Comment: Baseline results for the ECML PKDD Discovery Challenge 2013 %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1302.4412 %+ %^ %0 %0 Journal Article %A Mitzlaff, Folke; Atzmueller, Martin; Benz, Dominik; Hotho, Andreas & Stumme, Gerd %D 2013 %T User-Relatedness and Community Structure in Social Interaction Networks %E %B CoRR/abs %C %I %V 1309.3888 %6 %N %P %& %Y %S %7 %8 %9 %? %! %Z %@ %( %) %* %L %M %1 %2 %3 article %4 %# %$ %F mitzlaff2013userrelatedness %K venus, itegpub, ubiquitous, social, l3s, 2013, myown, iteg, data, mining, web %X %Z %U %+ %^ %0 %0 Journal Article %A Mitzlaff, Folke; Atzmueller, Martin; Benz, Dominik; Hotho, Andreas & Stumme, Gerd %D 2013 %T User-Relatedness and Community Structure in Social Interaction Networks. %E %B CoRR %C %I %V abs/1309.3888 %6 %N %P %& %Y %S %7 %8 %9 %? %! %Z %@ %( %) %* %L %M %1 %2 %3 article %4 %# %$ %F journals/corr/MitzlaffABHS13 %K relatedness, social, structure, bibsonomy, user %X %Z %U http://dblp.uni-trier.de/db/journals/corr/corr1309.html#MitzlaffABHS13 %+ %^ %0 %0 Journal Article %A Mitzlaff, Folke & Stumme, G %D 2012 %T Relatedness of given names %E %B Human Journal %C %I %V 1 %6 %N 4 %P 205--217 %& %Y %S %7 %8 %9 %? %! %Z %@ %( %) %* %L %M %1 %2 %3 article %4 %# %$ %F mitzlaff2012relatedness %K relatedness, similarity, nameling, cosine %X %Z %U %+ %^ %0 %0 Book Section %A Mitzlaff, Folke; Atzmueller, Martin; Benz, Dominik; Hotho, Andreas & Stumme, Gerd %D 2011 %T Community Assessment Using Evidence Networks %E Atzmueller, Martin; Hotho, Andreas; Strohmaier, Markus & Chin, Alvin %B Analysis of Social Media and Ubiquitous Data %C %I Springer Berlin Heidelberg %V 6904 %6 %N %P 79-98 %& %Y %S Lecture Notes in Computer Science %7 %8 %9 %? %! %Z %@ 978-3-642-23598-6 %( %) %* %L %M %1 %2 Community Assessment Using Evidence Networks - Springer %3 incollection %4 %# %$ %F mitzlaff2011community %K tagging, networks, evidence, community, aboutBibSonomy %X Community mining is a prominent approach for identifying (user) communities in social and ubiquitous contexts.
