Two approaches to community detection

Zohar Nussinov
Washington University & T-11

I will review two approaches of ours for community detection: (i) a mechanical formulation and (ii) a modified Potts type model Hamiltonian that is free of the resolution limit problem that appear in several popular approaches. Our algorithm is no less accurate than simulated annealing approaches while maintaining high speed.

Host: Misha Chertkov, T-13
