Networks serve as a tool used to examine the large-scale connectivity patterns in complex systems. Modelling their generative mechanism nonparametrically is often based on step-functions, such as the stochastic block models. These models…

Social networks are often associated with rich side information, such as texts and images. While numerous methods have been developed to identify communities from pairwise interactions, they usually ignore such side information. In this…

The stochastic block model is a popular tool for studying community structures in network data. We develop a goodness-of-fit test for the stochastic block model. The test statistic is based on the largest singular value of a residual matrix…

Community detection is the problem of identifying community structure in graphs. Often the graph is modeled as a sample from the Stochastic Block Model, in which each vertex belongs to a community. The probability that two vertices are…

The stochastic block model is a canonical random graph model for clustering and community detection on network-structured data. Decades of extensive study on the problem have established many profound results, among which the phase…

We give upper and lower bounds on the information-theoretic threshold for community detection in the stochastic block model. Specifically, let $k$ be the number of groups, $d$ be the average degree, the probability of edges between vertices…

Multi-view data arises frequently in modern network analysis e.g. relations of multiple types among individuals in social network analysis, longitudinal measurements of interactions among observational units, annotated networks with noisy…

Community detection is the task of clustering objects based on their pairwise relationships. Most of the model-based community detection methods, such as the stochastic block model and its variants, are designed for networks with binary…

Dynamic networks, especially those representing social networks, undergo constant evolution of their community structure over time. Nodes can migrate between different communities, communities can split into multiple new communities,…

We consider the problem of estimating community memberships of nodes in a network, where every node is associated with a vector determining its degree of membership in each community. Existing provably consistent algorithms often require…

The community detection problem on multilayer networks have drawn much interest. When the nodal covariates ar also present, few work has been done to integrate information from both sources. To leverage the multilayer networks and the…

In this paper we extend our previous work on the stochastic block model, a commonly used generative model for social and biological networks, and the problem of inferring functional groups or communities from the topology of the network. We…

We conduct a comparative analysis on various estimates of the number of clusters in community detection. An exhaustive comparison requires testing of all possible combinations of frameworks, algorithms, and assessment criteria. In this…

Community detection in the stochastic block model is one of the central problems of graph clustering. Since its introduction, many subsequent papers have made great strides in solving and understanding this model. In this setup, spectral…

New phase transition phenomena have recently been discovered for the stochastic block model, for the special case of two non-overlapping symmetric communities. This gives raise in particular to new algorithmic challenges driven by the…

Unknown node attributes in complex networks may introduce community structures that are important to distinguish from those driven by known attributes. We propose a block-corrected modularity that discounts given block structures present in…

We propose a robust, scalable, integrated methodology for community detection and community comparison in graphs. In our procedure, we first embed a graph into an appropriate Euclidean space to obtain a low-dimensional representation, and…

Communities are a common and widely studied structure in networks, typically under the assumption that the network is fully and correctly observed. In practice, network data are often collected by querying nodes about their connections. In…

Based on the classical Degree Corrected Stochastic Blockmodel (DCSBM) model for network community detection problem, we propose two novel approaches: principal component clustering (PCC) and normalized principal component clustering (NPCC).…

Common cross-validation (CV) methods like k-fold cross-validation or Monte-Carlo cross-validation estimate the predictive performance of a learner by repeatedly training it on a large portion of the given data and testing on the remaining…
