Heterogeneous information network

Definition

Information networks have been intensively studied in recent years, ranging from community detection to graph classification. Typical applications of information networks include web mining, social network analysis, bioinformatics, etc. Most previous research on information networks focuses on homogeneous networks, which involve one type of nodes and one type of links, e.g., social networks with friendship links and webpage networks with hyperlinks. With the recent advance in data collection techniques, many real-world applications are facing large-scale heterogeneous information networks (Sun et al. 2011), which involve multiple types of objects interconnected through multiple types of links. These networks are multimode and multi-relational networks, which involves large amount of information. For example, a bibliographic network in Fig. 1involves five types...
