Abstract
Abstract Our ability to observe the mesoscale topology of complex networks through community detection has significantly advanced in the past decades. This progress has opened up new frontiers in discovering more sophisticated and meaningful community structures that possess fuzzy and higher-order characteristics. This review provides an overview of two emerging research directions, which are fuzzy and higher-order community detection. It includes related concepts and practical scenarios, mathematical descriptions and latest advancements, as well as current challenges and future directions. Therefore, it will facilitate researchers in swiftly grasping the two emerging fields, offering valuable insights for future development of community detection studies.
期刊介绍:
General physics – physics of elementary particles and fields – nuclear physics – atomic, molecular and optical physics – classical areas of phenomenology – physics of gases, plasmas and electrical discharges – condensed matter – cross-disciplinary physics and related areas of science and technology.
Letters submitted to EPL should contain new results, ideas, concepts, experimental methods, theoretical treatments, including those with application potential and be of broad interest and importance to one or several sections of the physics community. The presentation should satisfy the specialist, yet remain understandable to the researchers in other fields through a suitable, clearly written introduction and conclusion (if appropriate).
EPL also publishes Comments on Letters previously published in the Journal.
