This paper addresses the ambitious goal of merging two different approaches to group detection in complex domains: one based on fuzzy clustering and the other on community detection theory. To achieve this, two clustering algorithms are…

It has been shown that community detection algorithms work better for clustering tasks than other, more popular methods, such as k-means. In fact, network analysis based methods often outperform more widely used methods and do not suffer…
