Common experience suggests that many networks might possess community structure - division of vertices into groups, with a higher density of edges within groups than between them. Here we describe a new computer algorithm that detects…
Local network community detection aims to find a single community in a large network, while inspecting only a small part of that network around a given seed node. This is much cheaper than finding all communities in a network. Most methods…
