A Model-based Approach to Attributed Graph Clustering
Summary: Model-based Bayesian framework for attributed graph clustering, unifying structure and attributes without ad hoc distance design. Efficient variational inference scales to large graphs and yields superior clustering, beating state-of-the-art distance-based methods on real networks. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
