Performance Evaluation of Modularity Based Community Detection Algorithms in Large Scale Networks

Community structure detection is one of the major research areas of network science and it is particularly useful for large real networks applications. This work presents a deep study of the most discussed algorithms for community detection based on modularity measure: Newman’s spectral method using...
