Community Detection Algorithms
Learn about algorithms that help identify groups or communities of closely connected nodes within your graph.
Uncovering Graph Communities
Welcome! In this lesson, we'll explore Community Detection Algorithms. These powerful tools help us find hidden groups or 'communities' within a graph.
Imagine a social network: friends form groups. These algorithms help identify such groups automatically.
What's a Graph Community?
A community in a graph is a set of nodes that are more densely connected to each other than to nodes outside the set.
- Think of it as a 'clique' or a 'cluster'.
- Nodes within a community often share common characteristics or interests.
