YashM246/Comparative_Analysis_of_Community_Detection_Algorithm

Repository files navigation

Community Detection in complex networks has always been a topic of significant interest in network science, with numerous papers and algorithms proposing to uncover the underlying structures within networks. In this paper, we conduct a comparative analysis of several prominent community detection algorithms applied to SNAP Social Circles Dataset, derived from the Facebook social network. The algorithms implemented include Louvain, Girvan-Newman, Spectral Clustering, KMeans Clustering, etc. We evaluate the performance of these algorithms based on various metrics such as modularity, normalized cut-ratio, silhouette score, compactness, and separability. Our findings reveal insights into the effectiveness of each algorithm in detecting various meaningful communities within the social network, shedding light on their strength and limitations. This research contributes to the understanding of community detection methods and provides valuable guidance for their application in analyzing real-world social networks.
