On community structure in complex networks: challenges and opportunities
Hocine Cherifi, Gergely Palla, Boleslaw K. Szymanski +1
Community structure is one of the most relevant features encountered in numerous real-world applications of networked systems. Despite the tremendous effort of scientists working o…
The evolution of polarization in the legislative branch of government
Xiaoyan Lu, Jianxi Gao, Boleslaw K. Szymanski
The polarization of political opinions among members of the U.S. legislative chambers measured by their voting records is greater today than it was thirty years ago. Previous resea…
Regularized Stochastic Block Model for robust community detection in complex networks
Xiaoyan Lu, Boleslaw K. Szymanski
The stochastic block model is able to generate different network partitions, ranging from traditional assortative communities to disassortative structures. Since the degree-correct…
Asymptotic resolution bounds of generalized modularity and multi-scale community detection
Xiaoyan Lu, Brendan Cross, Boleslaw K. Szymanski
The maximization of generalized modularity performs well on networks in which the members of all communities are statistically indistinguishable from each other. However, there is…
