N2 - In this paper, we attempt to detect the changes in the structure of anevolving social network. We define a novel measure to quantify the dynamicsof the network and use it to generate a timeline for the network that indicatesthe changes. We consider that any significant change in the network is asa result of occurrence of some event, and thus, identify the day or time stepwhen the event took place. Further, the analysis involves identification ofkey individuals and their close associates that were active on that day. Finally,the case study involves identification of individuals having communicationbehaviour similar to the key individuals. To group such individuals, we usea recently proposed online clustering approach called evolving clustering(eClustering). We demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed quantificationmeasures by conducting several experiments and comparing the results with theground truth.
