Sub-networks of such a network based on each type of link correspond to distinct views of the underlying network. In real-world applications, each node is typically linked to only a small subset of other nodes. Hence, practical approaches to problems such as node labeling have to cope with the resulting sparse networks. While low-dimensional network em- beddings offer a promising approach to this problem, most of the current network embedding methods focus primarily on single view networks. We introduce a novel multi-view network embedding (MVNE) algorithm for constructing low-dimensional node embeddings from multi-view networks. MVNE adapts and extends an approach to single view network embedding (SVNE) using graph factorization clustering (GFC) to the multi-view setting using an objective funct
