Core Decomposition of Networks:
Concepts, Algorithms and Applications

Overview

Graph mining is an important research area with a plethora of practical applications. Core decomposition of networks is a fundamental operation strongly related to more complex mining tasks such as community detection, dense subgraph discovery, identification of influential nodes, network visualization, text mining, just to name a few. In this tutorial, we will present in detail the concept and properties of core decomposition in graphs, the associated algorithms for its efficient computation and important cross-disciplinary applications that benefit from it.
