With the recent ?ourishing research activities on Web search and mining, social networkanalysis,informationnetworkanalysis,informationretrieval,linkana- sis,andstructuraldatamining,researchonlinkmininghasbeenrapidlygrowing, forminganew?eldofdatamining. Traditionaldataminingfocuseson ?at or isolated datainwhicheachdata objectisrepresentedasanindependentattributevector. However,manyreal-world data sets are inter-connected, much richer in structure, involving objects of h- erogeneoustypesandcomplexlinks. Hence,thestudyoflinkminingwillhavea highimpactonvariousimportantapplicationssuchasWebandtextmining,social networkanalysis,collaborative?ltering,andbioinformatics.
