Clustering and heterogeneous information fusion for social media theme discovery and associative mining by Meng, Lei

“…Moreover, considering that different social users may have different preferences for categorizing the social media data, incorporating user preferences into the clustering framework to produce personalized data clusters is also a challenge. In order to address the above issues, in this thesis, we investigate and develop novel clustering algorithms for the fast and robust clustering of large-scale social media data by integrating their multiple but different types of features and user preferences, and explore their applications to the associative social media mining tasks. …”
