Much effort has gone into understanding the modular nature of complex networks. Communities, also known as clusters or modules, are typically considered to be densely interconnected groups of nodes that are only sparsely connected to other…

The study of community structure has been a hot topic of research over the last years. But, while successfully applied in several areas, the concept lacks of a general and precise notion. Facts like the hierarchical structure and…

Community detection based on modularity maximization is one of the most widely used approaches for uncovering mesoscale structures in complex networks. However, it is well known that the modularity function exhibits a highly degenerate…

The virtualization and softwarization of modern computer networks introduces interesting new opportunities for a more flexible placement of network functions and middleboxes (firewalls, proxies, traffic optimizers, virtual switches, etc.).…

Most community detection algorithms from the literature work as optimization tools that minimize a given \textit{fitness function}, while assuming that each node belongs to a single community. Since there is no hard concept of what a…

Subset selection tasks, arise in recommendation systems and search engines and ask to select a subset of items that maximize the value for the user. The values of subsets often display diminishing returns, and hence, submodular functions…

The persistence probability is a statistical index that has been proposed to detect one or more communities embedded in a network. Even though its definition is straightforward, e.g, the probability that a random walker remains in a group…

Scaling model capacity has been vital in the success of deep learning. For a typical network, necessary compute resources and training time grow dramatically with model size. Conditional computation is a promising way to increase the number…

The issue of network community detection has been extensively studied across many fields. Most community detection methods assume that nodes belong to only one community. However, in many cases, nodes can belong to multiple communities…

Complex systems are usually illustrated by networks which captures the topology of the interactions between the entities. To better understand the roles played by the entities in the system one needs to uncover the underlying community…

Two natural and widely used representations for the community structure of networks are clusterings, which partition the vertex set into disjoint subsets, and layouts, which assign the vertices to positions in a metric space. This paper…

Detecting communities in large-scale networks is a challenging task when each vertex may belong to multiple communities, as is often the case in social networks. The multiple memberships of vertices and thus the strong overlaps among…

The identification of community structure in a social network is an important problem tackled in the literature of network analysis. There are many solutions to this problem using a static scenario, when facing a dynamic scenario some…

Community structure is largely regarded as an intrinsic property of complex real-world networks. However, recent studies reveal that networks comprise even more sophisticated modules than classical cohesive communities. More precisely,…

Most existing approaches for community detection require complete information of the graph in a specific scale, which is impractical for many social networks. We propose a novel algorithm that does not embrace the universal approach but…

A network has a non-overlapping community structure if the nodes of the network can be partitioned into disjoint sets such that each node in a set is densely connected to other nodes inside the set and sparsely connected to the nodes out-…

Probabilistic verification problems of neural networks are concerned with formally analysing the output distribution of a neural network under a probability distribution of the inputs. Examples of probabilistic verification problems include…

Optimization networks are a new methodology for holistically solving interrelated problems that have been developed with combinatorial optimization problems in mind. In this contribution we revisit the core principles of optimization…

Current community detection algorithms operate by optimizing a statistic called modularity, which analyzes the distribution of positively weighted edges in a network. Modularity does not account for negatively weighted edges. This paper…

How can we accurately compare different community detection algorithms? These algorithms cluster nodes in a given network, and their performance is often validated on benchmark networks with explicit ground-truth communities. Given the lack…
