fastgreedy.community {igraph} | R Documentation |
This function tries to find dense subgraph, also called communities in graphs via directly optimizing a modularity score.
fastgreedy.community(graph, merges=TRUE, modularity=TRUE, weights=E(graph)$weight)
graph |
The input graph |
merges |
Logical scalar, whether to return the merge matrix. |
modularity |
Logcal scalar, whether to return a vector containing the modularity after each merge. |
weights |
If not NULL , then a numeric vector of edge
weights. The length must match the number of edges in the graph.
By default the ‘weight ’ edge attribute is used as
weights. If it is not present, then all edges are considered to have
the same weight.

This function implements the fast greedy modularity optimization algorithm for finding community structure, see A Clauset, MEJ Newman, C Moore: Finding community structure in very large networks, http://www.arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/0408187 for the details.
A named list with the following members:
merges |
A matrix with two column, this represents a dendogram
and contains all the merges the algorithm performed. Each line is
one merge and it is given by the ids of the two communities
merged. The community ids are integer numbers starting from zero
and the communities between zero and the number of vertices
(N ) minus one belong to individual vertices. The first line
of the matrix gives the first merge, this merge creates community
N , the number of vertices, the second merge creates
community N+1 , etc.
|
modularity |
A numeric vector containing the modularity value of the community structure after performing every merge. |
