The classical setting of community detection consists of networks exhibiting a clustered structure. To more accurately model real systems we consider a class of networks (i) whose edges may carry labels and (ii) which may lack a clustered…
Community detection in networks is one of the most popular topics of modern network science. Communities, or clusters, are usually groups of vertices having higher probability of being connected to each other than to members of other…
Community detection is considered as a fundamental task in analyzing social networks. Even though many techniques have been proposed for community detection, most of them are based exclusively on the connectivity structures. However, there…
Networks (graphs) permeate scientific fields such as biology, social science, economics, etc. Empirical studies have shown that real-world networks are often heterogeneous, that is, the degrees of nodes do not concentrate on a number.…
Consider a network consisting of two subnetworks (communities) connected by some external edges. Given the network topology, the community detection problem can be cast as a graph partitioning problem that aims to identify the external…
Network (graph) data analysis is a popular research topic in statistics and machine learning. In application, one is frequently confronted with graph two-sample hypothesis testing where the goal is to test the difference between two graph…
While there has been a plethora of approaches for detecting disjoint communities from real-world complex networks, some methods for detecting overlapping community structures have also been recently proposed. In this work, we argue that,…
Community structure is a commonly observed feature of real networks. The term refers to the presence in a network of groups of nodes (communities) that feature high internal connectivity, but are poorly connected between each other. Whereas…
Through detailed analysis of scores of publicly available data sets corresponding to a wide range of large-scale networks, from communication and road networks to various forms of social networks, we explore a little-studied geometric…
We typically interact in groups, not just in pairs. For this reason, it has recently been proposed that the spread of information, opinion or disease should be modelled over a hypergraph rather than a standard graph. The use of hyperedges…
No community detection algorithm can be optimal for all possible networks, thus it is important to identify whether the algorithm is suitable for a given network. We propose a multi-step algorithmic solution scheme for overlapping community…
The network data has attracted considerable attention in modern statistics. In research on complex network data, one key issue is finding its underlying connection structure given a network sample. The methods that have been proposed in…
This paper studies the problem of detecting the presence of a small dense community planted in a large Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $\mathcal{G}(N,q)$, where the edge probability within the community exceeds $q$ by a constant factor.…
Complex data in social and natural sciences find effective representation through networks, wherein quantitative and categorical information can be associated with nodes and connecting edges. The internal structure of networks can be…
The degrees are a classical and relevant way to study the topology of a network. They can be used to assess the goodness-of-fit for a given random graph model. In this paper we introduce goodness-of-fit tests for two classes of models.…
Community detection methods have so far been tested mostly on small empirical networks and on synthetic benchmarks. Much less is known about their performance on large real-world networks, which nonetheless are a significant target for…
We study the problem of community detection in hypergraphs under a stochastic block model. Similarly to how the stochastic block model in graphs suggests studying spiked random matrices, our model motivates investigating statistical and…
Finding the strength of an edge in a network has always been a big demand. In the context of social networks, it allows to estimate the relationship strength between users. The best-known method to compute edge strength is the Neighbourhood…
Many real-world networks such as the gene networks, protein-protein interaction networks and metabolic networks exhibit community structures, meaning the existence of groups of densely connected vertices in the networks. Many local…
The maximization of generalized modularity performs well on networks in which the members of all communities are statistically indistinguishable from each other. However, there is no theory bounding the maximization performance in more…
