Identifying communities in networks is a fundamental and challenging problem of practical importance in many fields of science. Current methods either ignore the heterogeneous distribution of nodal degrees or assume prior knowledge of the…
Many real-world complex networks exhibit a community structure, in which the modules correspond to actual functional units. Identifying these communities is a key challenge for scientists. A common approach is to search for the network…
Heterogeneous networks are networks consisting of different types of nodes and multiple types of edges linking such nodes. While community detection has been extensively developed as a useful technique for analyzing networks that contain…
Motivated by social network analysis and network-based recommendation systems, we study a semi-supervised community detection problem in which the objective is to estimate the community label of a new node using the network topology and…
Community identification is a long-standing challenge in the modern network science, especially for very large scale networks containing millions of nodes. In this paper, we propose a new metric to quantify the structural similarity between…
The modularity of a network quantifies the extent, relative to a null model network, to which vertices cluster into community groups. We define a null model appropriate for bipartite networks, and use it to define a bipartite modularity.…
Community detection is the process of grouping strongly connected nodes in a network. Many community detection methods for un-weighted networks have a theoretical basis in a null model. Communities discovered by these methods therefore have…
Community detection is a fundamental task in social network analysis. In this paper, first we develop an endorsement filtered user connectivity network by utilizing Heider's structural balance theory and certain Twitter triad patterns.…
Detecting communities in large complex networks has found a wide range of applications in physical, biological, and social sciences by identifying mesoscopic groups based on the links between individual units. Moreover, community detection…
Networks are a convenient way to represent complex systems of interacting entities. Many networks contain "communities" of nodes that are more densely connected to each other than to nodes in the rest of the network. In this paper, we…
One of the most relevant tasks in network analysis is the detection of community structures, or clustering. Most popular techniques for community detection are based on the maximization of a quality function called modularity, which in turn…
Connectivity estimation is challenging in the context of high-dimensional data. A useful preprocessing step is to group variables into clusters, however, it is not always clear how to do so from the perspective of connectivity estimation.…
Many networks of interest in the sciences, including a variety of social and biological networks, are found to divide naturally into communities or modules. The problem of detecting and characterizing this community structure has attracted…
Community detection is a crucial task in network analysis that can be significantly improved by incorporating subject-level information, i.e. covariates. However, current methods often struggle with selecting tuning parameters and analyzing…
A basic question in network community detection is how modular a given network is. This is usually addressed by evaluating the quality of partitions detected in the network. The Girvan-Newman (GN) modularity function is the standard way to…
Community structure analysis is a powerful tool for social networks, which can simplify their topological and functional analysis considerably. However, since community detection methods have random factors and real social networks obtained…
We survey the application of a relatively new branch of statistical physics--"community detection"-- to data mining. In particular, we focus on the diagnosis of materials and automated image segmentation. Community detection describes the…
Community detection is a commonly used technique for identifying groups in a network based on similarities in connectivity patterns. To facilitate community detection in large networks, we recast the network to be partitioned into a smaller…
Study of the cluster- or community structure of complex networks makes an important contribution to the understanding of networks at a functional level. Despite the many efforts, no definition of community has been agreed on and important…
Identifying community structure in networks is an issue of particular interest in network science. The modularity introduced by Newman and Girvan [Phys. Rev. E 69, 026113 (2004)] is the most popular quality function for community detection…
