Abstract

A network structure of nodes and links is an informative way to study information systems. The network representation is valuable because it encodes the structure of the data. This chapter reviews recent advances in the field of network science with an emphasis on describing the structure of information networks. The author argues that bipartite networks constitute an important class of networks, and describes a method for detecting overlapping communities in bipartite networks. The author discusses the relevance of network communities to the future of organizing and understanding large datasets.
