We find there is relationship between the associated bigraph and the cluster (or community) detecting on network. By imbedding the associated bigraph of some network (suppose it has cluster structures) into some space, we can identify the…

We review and improve a recently introduced method for the detection of communities in complex networks. This method combines spectral properties of some matrices encoding the network topology, with well known hierarchical clustering…

It has been found that many networks display community structure -- groups of vertices within which connections are dense but between which they are sparser -- and highly sensitive computer algorithms have in recent years been developed for…

In this paper we apply theoretical and practical results from facility location theory to the problem of community detection in networks. The result is an algorithm that computes bounds on a minimization variant of local modularity. We also…

Community detection in network analysis aims at partitioning nodes in a network into $K$ disjoint communities. Most currently available algorithms assume that $K$ is known, but choosing a correct $K$ is generally very difficult for real…

Many methods have been proposed to detect communities, not only in plain, but also in attributed, directed or even dynamic complex networks. In its simplest form, a community structure takes the form of a partition of the node set. From the…
