A Social Network Model Exhibiting Tunable Overlapping Community Structure

Social networks, as well as many other real-world networks, exhibit overlapping community structure. In this paper, we present formulas which facilitate the computation for characterizing the overlapping community structure of networks. A hypergraph representation of networks with overlapping community structure is introduced. Using the...

Crawling and Detecting Community Structure in Online Social Networks using Local Information

As Online Social Networks (OSNs) become an intensive sub- ject of research for example in computer science, networking, social sci- ences etc., a growing need for valid and useful datasets is present. The time taken to crawl the network is however introducing a bias which should be minimized. Usual ways of addressing this problem are sampling...
