gn_names {dendroNetwork} | R Documentation |
Community detection using the Girvan-Newman algorithm
Description
Function to determine the communities in a network using the Girvan-Newman algorithm. This function uses the cluster_edge_betweenness() function from the iGraph package, but creates a more user-friendly output that includes the names of the nodes.
Usage
gn_names(g)
Arguments
g |
input graph or network that is used for community detection |
