Oriented and Degree-generated Block Models: Generating and Inferring Communities with Inhomogeneous Degree Distributions
Yaojia Zhu, Xiaoran Yan, Cristopher Moore
The stochastic block model is a powerful tool for inferring community structure from network topology. However, it predicts a Poisson degree distribution within each community, whi…
