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

TL;DR: A straightforward R tutorial is presented on how to apply and interpret EGA, using scores from a well-known psychological instrument: the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale, and both EGA techniques are compared with 5 widely used factor analytic techniques.

Interactive overlays: a new method for generating global journal maps from Web-of-Science data
Loet Leydesdorff,Ismael Rafols +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed interactive overlays to a global map of science based on aggregated citation relations among the 9162 journals contained in the Science Citation Index (SCI) and Social Science Citation index (SciCEI) 2009.
Community Structure in Graphs
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of detecting communities in a graph is discussed, both conceptually and practically, due to the ambiguity in the definition of community and in the discrimination of different partitions and algorithms must find good partitions among an exponentially large number of them.

TL;DR: Results indicate that single-subject, module-based graph theoretic analysis of resting-state fMRI provides potentially useful information for concussive blast-related TBI if high quality scans can be obtained.

Multifunctional proteins revealed by overlapping clustering in protein interaction network
TL;DR: Overlapping Cluster Generator (OCG), a novel clustering method which decomposes a network into overlapping clusters and which is, therefore, capable of correct assignment of multifunctional proteins, is presented.

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.

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.
