Time-Dependent Network Embedding

Abstract:

In implementations of time-dependent network embedding, a computing device maintains time-dependent interconnected data in the form of a time-based graph that includes nodes and node associations that each represent an edge between two of the nodes in the time-based graph based at least in part on a temporal value that indicates when the two nodes were associated. The computing device includes a network embedding module that is implemented to traverse one or more of the nodes in the time-based graph along the node associations, where the traversal is performed with respect to the temporal value of each of the edges that associate the nodes. The network embedding module is also implemented to determine a time-dependent embedding for each of the nodes traversed in the time-based graph, the time-dependent embedding for each of the respective nodes being representative of feature values that describe the respective node.
