Fast algorithm for detecting community structure in networks.
TLDR
An algorithm is described which gives excellent results when tested on both computer-generated and real-world networks and is much faster, typically thousands of times faster, than previous algorithms.Abstract:
Many networks display community structure--groups of vertices within which connections are dense but between which they are sparser--and sensitive computer algorithms have in recent years been developed for detecting this structure. These algorithms, however, are computationally demanding, which limits their application to small networks. Here we describe an algorithm which gives excellent results when tested on both computer-generated and real-world networks and is much faster, typically thousands of times faster, than previous algorithms. We give several example applications, including one to a collaboration network of more than 50,000 physicists.read more

Discovering Spatial Interaction Communities from Mobile Phone Data
TL;DR: An agglomerative clustering algorithm based on a Newman‐Girvan modularity metric and an alternative modularity function incorporating a gravity model are adopted and proposed to discover the clustering structures of spatial‐interaction communities using a mobile phone dataset from one week in a city in China.

Toward a formalized account of attitudes: the Causal Attitude Network (CAN) model
Jonas Dalege,Denny Borsboom,Frenk van Harreveld,Helma van den Berg,Mark Conner,Han L. J. van der Maas +5 more
TL;DR: The Causal Attitude Network (CAN) model is introduced, which conceptualizes attitudes as networks consisting of evaluative reactions and interactions between these reactions, and is argued that the CAN model provides a realistic formalized measurement model of attitudes and therefore fills a crucial gap in the attitude literature.

Global energy flows embodied in international trade: A combination of environmentally extended input–output analysis and complex network analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply a variety of complex network analysis tools to uncover the structure of embodied energy flow network (EEFN) at global, regional and national level, based on environmentally extended input-output analysis (EEIOA).

Exploring local community structures in large networks
TL;DR: This paper extends the concept of degree from single vertex to sub-graph, and presents a formal definition of module/community in a network based on this extension, and implements a JAVA tool, MoNet, for exploring local community structures in large networks.

Statistical mechanics of complex networks
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple model based on the power-law degree distribution of real networks was proposed, which was able to reproduce the power law degree distribution in real networks and to capture the evolution of networks, not just their static topology.

Community structure in social and biological networks
Michelle Girvan,Mark Newman +1 more
TL;DR: This article proposes a method for detecting communities, built around the idea of using centrality indices to find community boundaries, and tests it on computer-generated and real-world graphs whose community structure is already known and finds that the method detects this known structure with high sensitivity and reliability.

Finding and evaluating community structure in networks.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the algorithms proposed are highly effective at discovering community structure in both computer-generated and real-world network data, and can be used to shed light on the sometimes dauntingly complex structure of networked systems.
