Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires information related to a network including a group of nodes, and a group of real links that connects the nodes, an adding unit that generates an extension network by adding to the network at least a virtual link that link nodes that are not linked by a real link, and a clustering unit that clusters the group of the nodes by iteratively calculating a stochastic process of a transition between the nodes linked by the real link and the virtual link in the extension network until the stochastic process is regarded to be in a steady state.
