Abstract
A method for discovery of a cluster of objects in an arbitrary undirected graph. A subset of the objects is determined by performing a random walk starting from a first object of the objects and following a plurality of random edges of subsequent objects, the subset comprising the first object and the subsequent objects. An enlarged subset is determined by enlarging the subset to include other objects well-connected to the subset. It is determined whether the enlarged subset is a cluster.
