A Community Detection Method for Social Network Based on Community Embedding

Most community detection methods focus on the similarities between detection nodes to achieve community partitioning. Traditional network representation learning methods are also limited to the local context of the central nodes, which results in less truly representative results. This article examines nodes’ influence information, nodes’ community affiliating information, and similarity of community topologies and proposes a more effective node representation strategy. According to the local node information and global topology in the social network graph, a method of combining local node embedding and global community embedding is also designed. The effectiveness of learning node representation and community representation is improved by our approach. The proposed model can also effectively detect overlapping communities.
