Two paradigms for clustering

Similarity-based Feature-based

What if we have both?

  • Ecological networks: covariates on species (mass, feed,…)
  • Citation networks: covariates from article (keyword, journal,…)

A statistical model

Graph similarity Gaussian mixture covariates

Two latent clusters, encoded as 𝑤 ∈ {±1}'

Each individually

Graph similarity

Theorem (MNS13, 15, Mas14): 𝑤 recoverable from similarity graph if and only if:

Gaussian mixture covariates

Theorem (BBAP05, OMH13): 𝑤 recoverable from covariates if and only if:

Our result combines two phase transitions

Informal theorem (D, Montanari, Mossel, Sen) In the limit of large degree 𝑒, 𝑤 recoverable from graph and covariate data if and only if:
