A novel clustering method called CMDI is proposed, which incorporates two-dimensional structural information into the graph-based clustering process.
CMDI reformulates graph partitioning as an abstract clustering problem, leveraging maximum decoding information to minimize uncertainty associated with random visits to vertices.
Empirical evaluations on three real-world datasets show that CMDI outperforms classical baseline methods, exhibiting a superior decoding information ratio (DI-R).
CMDI demonstrates heightened efficiency, especially when considering prior knowledge (PK), making it a valuable tool in graph-based clustering analyses.
