We introduce a unified framework, formulated as general latent space models, to study complex higher-order network interactions among multiple entities. Our framework covers several popular models in recent network analysis literature, including mixture multi-layer latent space model and hypergraph latent space model. We formulate the relationship between the latent positions and the observed data via a generalized multilinear kernel as the link function. While our model enjoys decent generality, its maximum likelihood parameter estimation is...
