چکیده

This paper presents our approach to inferring communities on the Web. It delineates the sub-culture hierarchies based on how individuals get involved in the dispersion of online objects. To this end, a relatedness function is chosen to satisfy a set of carefully defined mathematical conditions. The conditions are deduced from how people may share common interests through placing common objects on their homepages. Our relatedness function can infer much more detailed degree of relatedness between homepages than other contemporary methods.
