Abstract

In this survey we overview graph-based clustering and its applications in computational linguistics. We summarize graph-based clustering as a five-part story: hypothesis, modeling, measure, algorithm and evaluation. We then survey three typical NLP problems in which graph-based clustering approaches have been successfully applied. Finally, we comment on the strengths and weaknesses of graph-based clustering and envision that graph-based clustering is a promising solution for some emerging NLP problems.
