A new journal paper with contribution from Bernhard Geiger, a scientist from the Knowledge Discovery Team at Know-Center, who has co-authored the paper with Clemens Bloechl (Rohde & Schwarz, Muenchen) and Rana Ali Amjad (TU Muenchen), has now been accepted for publication in the renowned journal “IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering”, which is one of the top-ranked journals in knowledge engineering, is in Q1 since 2005, and has an impact factor of 3.4.
The authors’ paper is titled “Co-Clustering via Information-Theoretic Markov Aggregation” and combines information theory and the theory of Markov chains to get a method for co-clustering that is mathematically justified and works well on real-world data sets. Looking at the example of Netflix, this method makes it possible to compute a matrix of similar users and similar movies at the same time, while also reducing the size of this matrix significantly.

We congratulate all authors on their success!
