A novel method for graph clustering is proposed, which leverages insights from gradient ascent methods previously used in point-based clustering. The approach is demonstrated to be asymptotically consistent when applied to random geometric graphs with data drawn from a density with Morse regularity. In this context, consistency is evaluated against a density-level clustering defined by the partition of the support induced by the basins of attraction of the density modes.

A new way to group connected points in complex shapes has been developed. It’s similar to techniques used for grouping dots in space, but adapted for more complicated structures like graphs. This method is shown to be effective when working with random geometric graphs, which are used to model real-world data. The results are compared to a specific type of clustering based on the natural groupings that occur in the underlying data.
