clique_community_names {dendroNetwork}

Clique Percolation Method (with node names)

Description

Function to determine communities in a network using clique percolation method (Palla et al., 2005). Communities are created based on cliques. Cliques are subsets of a network that can be considered complete (sub)networks. The size of the cliques to be used to community detection is part of the input of the function.

Usage

clique_community_names(g, k = 3)

Arguments

g

network object (igraph)

k

clique size to be used. The default is set to smallest possible size (3)

Value

a dataframe with node names and community name. The community is named as CPM_Kk_number_of_community with k replaced by the value of k.
