leiden_find_partition {leidenbase}R Documentation

Leiden find partition community detection function

Description

R to C wrapper that runs the basic Leiden community detection algorithm, which is similar to the find_partition() function in the python Leidenalg distribution.

Usage

leiden_find_partition(
  igraph,
  partition_type = c("CPMVertexPartition", "ModularityVertexPartition",
    "RBConfigurationVertexPartition", "RBERVertexPartition",
    "SignificanceVertexPartition", "SurpriseVertexPartition"),
  initial_membership = NULL,
  edge_weights = NULL,
  node_sizes = NULL,
  seed = NULL,
  resolution_parameter = 0.1,
  num_iter = 2,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

igraph

R igraph graph.

partition_type

String partition type name. Default is CPMVertexParition.

initial_membership

Numeric vector of initial membership assignments of nodes. These are 1-based indices. Default is one community per node.

edge_weights

Numeric vector of edge weights. Default is 1.0 for all edges.

node_sizes

Numeric vector of node sizes. Default is 1 for all nodes.

seed

Numeric random number generator seed. The seed value must be either NULL for random seed values or greater than 0 for a fixed seed value. Default is NULL.

resolution_parameter

Numeric resolution parameter. The value must be greater than 0.0. Default is 0.1. The resolution_parameter is ignored for the partition_types ModularityVertexPartition, SignificanceVertexPartition, and SurpriseVertexPartition.

num_iter

Numeric number of iterations. Default is 2.

verbose

A logic flag to determine whether or not we should print run diagnostics.

Notes excerpted from leidenalg/src/VertexPartition.py

Value

A named list consisting of a numeric vector of the node community memberships (1-based indices), a numeric quality value, a numeric modularity, a numeric significance, a numeric vector of edge weights within each community, a numeric vector of edge weights from each community, a numeric vector of edge weights to each community, and total edge weight in the graph.
