With the proliferation of complex networks, a large number of effective community detection methods have been developed. Of these, the label propagation-based approach for community detection has proven to be very suitable for community detection. However, it should be noted that this approach is stochastic and unstable. To address these issues, a CILPA method is proposed based on label Propagation and node information to identify a more rational community. First, we obtain the local influence reflecting the local spatial location of nodes based on their neighbourhood relationships. The importance of the nodes is subsequently obtained by combining topological information and local influence. Secondly, a label propagation strategy with preference selection is introduced to obtain stable overlapping communities based on neighbourhood information. More importantly, a label checking strategy is articulated to reduce the impact of sparse connections. Extensive experiments on the LFR benchmark network and real-world networks demonstrate that the approach is both stable and effective.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
