Real-world networks have a complex topology comprising many elements often structured into communities. Revealing these communities helps researchers uncover the organizational and functional structure of the system that the network…

Complex real-world networks commonly reveal characteristic groups of nodes like communities and modules. These are of value in various applications, especially in the case of large social and information networks. However, while numerous…
