Description

This research presents an extension to generalized blockmodeling where there are more than two types of objects to be clustered based on valued network data. We use the ideas in homogeneity blockmodeling to develop an optimization model to perform the clustering of the objects and the resulting partitioning of the ties so as to minimize the inconsistency of an empirical block with an ideal block. The ideal block types used in this modeling are null (all zeros), complete (all ones) and valued. Two case studies are presented: the Southern Women dataset and a larger example using a subset of the IMDb movie dataset.
