In network analysis, developing a unified theoretical framework that can compare methods under different models is an interesting problem. This paper proposes a partial solution to this problem. We summarize the idea of using separation…

Multi-layer networks arise naturally in various domains including biology, finance and sociology, among others. The multi-layer stochastic block model (multi-layer SBM) is commonly used for community detection in the multi-layer networks.…

Real-world networks usually have community structure, that is, nodes are grouped into densely connected communities. Community detection is one of the most popular and best-studied research topics in network science and has attracted…

Stochastic blockmodels (SBM) and their variants, $e.g.$, mixed-membership and overlapping stochastic blockmodels, are latent variable based generative models for graphs. They have proven to be successful for various tasks, such as…

The Degree Corrected Stochastic Block Model (DCSBM) was introduced by \cite{karrer2011stochastic} as a generalization of the stochastic block model in which vertices of the same community are allowed to have distinct degree distributions.…

We study the problem of detecting the community structure from the generalized stochastic block model (GSBM). Based on the analysis of the Stieljtes transform of the empirical spectral distribution, we prove a BBP-type transition for the…

Detecting communities in high-dimensional graphs can be achieved by applying random matrix theory where the adjacency matrix of the graph is modeled by a Stochastic Block Model (SBM). However, the SBM makes an unrealistic assumption that…

\cite{bickel2009nonparametric} developed a general framework to establish consistency of community detection in stochastic block model (SBM). In most applications of this framework, the community label is discrete. For example, in…

The Stochastic Block Model (Holland et al., 1983) is a mixture model for heterogeneous network data. Unlike the usual statistical framework, new nodes give additional information about the previous ones in this model. Thereby the…

The stochastic block model (SBM) is a widely used framework for community detection in networks, where the network structure is typically represented by an adjacency matrix. However, conventional SBMs are not directly applicable to an…

Spectral clustering is a popular method for community detection in network graphs: starting from a matrix representation of the graph, the nodes are clustered on a low dimensional projection obtained from a truncated spectral decomposition…

Stochastic blockmodels have been proposed as a tool for detecting community structure in networks as well as for generating synthetic networks for use as benchmarks. Most blockmodels, however, ignore variation in vertex degree, making them…

We study the problem of community recovery and detection in multi-layer stochastic block models, focusing on the critical network density threshold for consistent community structure inference. Using a prototypical two-block model, we…

Community detection approaches resolve complex networks into smaller groups (communities) that are expected to be relatively edge-dense and well-connected. The stochastic block model (SBM) is one of several approaches used to uncover…

The stochastic block model (SBM) is a probabilistic model de- signed to describe heterogeneous directed and undirected graphs. In this paper, we address the asymptotic inference on SBM by use of maximum- likelihood and variational…

In this paper, we consider the soft geometric block model (SGBM) with a fixed number $k \geq 2$ of homogeneous communities in the dense regime, and we introduce a spectral clustering algorithm for community recovery on graphs generated by…

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…

We derive rigorous bounds for well-defined community structure in complex networks for a stochastic block model (SBM) benchmark. In particular, we analyze the effect of inter-community "noise" (inter-community edges) on any "community…

We consider the spectral properties of sparse stochastic block models, where $N$ vertices are partitioned into $K$ balanced communities. Under an assumption that the intra-community probability and inter-community probability are of similar…

High-dimensional planted problems, such as finding a hidden dense subgraph within a random graph, often exhibit a gap between statistical and computational feasibility. While recovering the hidden structure may be statistically possible, it…
