Abstract:

Graphs have so many applications in real world problems. When we deal with huge volume of data, analyzing data is difficult or sometimes impossible. In big data problems, clustering data is a useful tool for data analysis. Singular value decomposition(SVD) is one of the best algorithms for clustering graph but we do not have any choice to select the number of clusters and the number of members in each cluster. In this paper, we use hierarchical SVD to cluster graphs with itchr('39')s adjacency matrix. In this algorithm, users can select a range for the number of members in each cluster. The results show in hierarchical SVD algorithm, clustering measurement parameters are more desirable and clusters are as dense as possible. The complexity of this algorithm is less than the complexity of SVD clustering method.
