%AJundong Li, Chen%D2018%I %K %MOSTI ID: 10062451 %PMedium: X %TMulti-Layered Network Embedding %XNetwork embedding has gained more attentions in recent years. It has been shown that the learned low-dimensional node vector representations could advance a myriad of graph mining tasks such as node classification, community detection, and link prediction. A vast majority of the existing efforts are overwhelmingly devoted to single-layered networks or homogeneous networks with a single type of nodes and node interactions. However, in many real-world applications, a variety of networks could be abstracted and presented in a multilayered fashion. Typical multi-layered networks include critical infrastructure systems, collaboration platforms, social recommender systems, to name a few. Despite the widespread use of multi-layered networks, it remains a daunting task to learn vector representations of different types of nodes due to the bewildering combination of both within-layer connections and cross-layer network dependencies. In this paper, we study a novel problem of multi-layered network embedding. In particular, we propose a principled framework – MANE to model both within-layer connections and cross-layer network dependencies simultaneously in a unified optimization framework for embedding representation learning. Experiments on real-world multi-layered networks corroborate the effectiveness of the proposed framework. Country unknown/Code not availablehttps://doi.org/10.1137/1.9781611975321.77OSTI-MSA
