Clustering, Cooperation, and Search in Social Networks

چکیده
The paper discusses the important role of clustering in the evolution of social networks, as it affects not only the incentives of players to cooperate but also their ability to search for fresh opportunities. Depending on the volatility of the environment and the social convention in place, we show that network clustering endogenously adapts to achieve and maintain, to the extent possible, a state of high social connectivity in the long run.

One of the great challenges in Social Network Analysis (SNA) is community detection. Community is a group of vertices which have high intra connections and sparse inter connections. Community detection or Clustering reveals community structure of social networks and hidden relationships among their constituents. By considering the increase of datasets related to social networks, we need scalabl...
متن کاملA New Method for Clustering Wireless Sensor Networks to Improve the Energy Consumption
Clustering is an effective approach for managing nodes in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). A new method of clustering mechanism with using Binary Gravitational Search Algorithm (BGSA) in WSN, is proposed in this paper to improve the energy consumption of the sensor nodes. Reducing the energy consumption of sensors in WSNs is the objective of this paper that is through selecting the sub optimum se...
متن کاملAn Optimized Firefly Algorithm based on Cellular Learning Automata for Community Detection in Social Networks
The structure of the community is one of the important features of social networks. A community is a sub graph which nodes have a lot of connections to nodes of inside the community and have very few connections to nodes of outside the community. The objective of community detection is to separate groups or communities that are linked more closely. In fact, community detection is the clustering...
