Overlapping Community Detection in Dynamic Networks

چکیده
Due to the increasingly large size and changing nature of social networks, algorithms for dynamic networks have become an important part of modern day community detection. In this paper, we use a well-known static community detection algorithm and modify it to discover communities in dynamic networks. We have developed a dynamic community detection algorithm based on Speaker-Listener Label Propagation Algorithm (SLPA) called SLPA Dynamic (SLPAD). This algorithm, tested on two real dynamic networks, cuts down on the time that it would take SLPA to run, as well as produces similar, and in some cases better, communities. We compared SLPAD to SLPA, LabelRankT, and another algorithm we developed, Dynamic Structural Clustering Algorithm for Networks Overlapping (DSCAN-O), to further test its validity and ability to detect overlapping communities when compared to other community detection algorithms. SLPAD proves to be faster than all of these algorithms, as well as produces communities with just as high modularity for each network.

متن کاملDetecting Overlapping Communities in Social Networks using Deep Learning
In network analysis, a community is typically considered of as a group of nodes with a great density of edges among themselves and a low density of edges relative to other network parts. Detecting a community structure is important in any network analysis task, especially for revealing patterns between specified nodes. There is a variety of approaches presented in the literature for overlapping...

متن کاملBayesian Overlapping Community Detection in Dynamic Networks
Detecting community structures in social networks has gained considerable attention in recent years. However, lack of prior knowledge about the number of communities, and their overlapping nature have made community detection a challenging problem. Moreover, many of the existing methods only consider static networks, while most of real world networks are dynamic and evolve over time. Hence, fin...
