- Learning With Hypergraphs: Clustering, Classification, and Embedding
- The authors usually endow the investigated objects with pairwise relationships, which can be illustrated as graphs. Naively squeezing the complex relationships into pairwise ones will inevitably lead to loss of information which can be expected valuable for the learning tasks however. Therefore it considers using hypergraphs in-stead to completely represent...
