int igraph_modularity(const igraph_t *graph,
const igraph_vector_t *membership,
const igraph_vector_t *weights,
const igraph_real_t resolution,
const igraph_bool_t directed,
igraph_real_t *modularity);
The modularity of a graph with respect to some clustering of the vertices (or assignment of vertex types) measures how strongly separated the different clusters are from each other compared to a random null model. It is defined as
Q = 1/(2m) sum_ij (A_ij - gamma * k_i * k_j / (2m)) * d(c_i,c_j),
where m is the number of edges, A_ij is the adjacency matrix,
k_i is the degree of vertex i, c_i is the cluster that vertex i belongs to
(or its vertex type), d(i,j)=1 if i=j and 0 otherwise,
and the sum goes over all i, j pairs of vertices.
The resolution parameter gamma allows weighting the random null model, which
might be useful when finding partitions with a high modularity. Maximizing modularity
with higher values of the resolution parameter typically results in more, smaller clusters
when finding partitions with a high modularity. Lower values typically results in
fewer, larger clusters. The original definition of modularity is retrieved
when setting gamma=1.
Modularity can also be calculated on directed graphs. This only requires a relatively modest change
Q = 1/(m) sum_ij (A_ij - gamma * k^out_i * k^in_j / m) * d(c_i,c_j),
where k^out_i is the out-degree of node i and k^in_j is the in-degree of node j.
Modularity on weighted graphs is also meaningful. When taking
edge weights into account, A_ij equals the weight of the corresponding edge
(or 0 if there is no edge), k_i is the strength (i.e. the weighted degree) of
vertex i, with similar counterparts for a directed graph, and m is the total
weight of all edges.
Note that the modularity is not well-defined for graphs with no edges.
igraph returns NaN for graphs with no edges; see
https://github.com/igraph/igraph/issues/1539 for
a detailed discussion.

Arguments:
|
The input graph. |
|
Numeric vector of integer values which gives the type of each vertex, i.e. the cluster to which it belongs. It does not have to be consecutive, i.e. empty communities are allowed. |
|
Weight vector or |
|
Resolution parameter. Must be greater than or equal to 0. Set it to 1 to use the classical definition of modularity. |
|
Whether to use the directed or undirected version of modularity. Ignored for undirected graphs. |
|
Pointer to a real number, the result will be stored here. |
Returns:
Error code. |

int igraph_modularity_matrix(const igraph_t *graph,
const igraph_vector_t *weights,
const igraph_real_t resolution,
igraph_matrix_t *modmat,
igraph_bool_t directed);
This function returns the modularity matrix defined as
B_ij = A_ij - gamma * k_i * k_j / (2m)
for undirected graphs, where A_ij is the adjacency matrix, gamma is the
resolution parameter, k_i is the degree of vertex i, and m is the
number of edges in the graph. When there are no edges, or the weights add up
to zero, the result is undefined.
For directed graphs the modularity matrix is changed to
B_ij = A_ij - gamma * k^out_i * k^in_j / m
where k^out_i is the out-degree of node i and k^in_j is the
in-degree of node j.
Note that self-loops in undirected graphs are multiplied by 2 in this implementation. If weights are specified, the weighted counterparts are used.
Arguments:
|
The input graph. |
|
Edge weights, pointer to a vector. If this is a null pointer then every edge is assumed to have a weight of 1. |
|
Resolution parameter. Must be greater than or equal to 0. Default is 1. Lower values favor fewer, larger communities; higher values favor more, smaller communities. |
|
Pointer to an initialized matrix in which the modularity matrix is stored. |
|
For directed graphs: if the edges should be treated as undirected. For undirected graphs this is ignored. |
See also:
int igraph_community_optimal_modularity(const igraph_t *graph,
igraph_real_t *modularity,
igraph_vector_t *membership,
const igraph_vector_t *weights);
This function calculates the optimal community structure for a graph, in terms of maximal modularity score.
The calculation is done by transforming the modularity maximization into an integer programming problem, and then calling the GLPK library to solve that. Please see Ulrik Brandes et al.: On Modularity Clustering, IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering 20(2):172-188, 2008.
Note that modularity optimization is an NP-complete problem, and all known algorithms for it have exponential time complexity. This means that you probably don't want to run this function on larger graphs. Graphs with up to fifty vertices should be fine, graphs with a couple of hundred vertices might be possible.
Arguments:
|
The input graph. It is always treated as undirected. |
|
Pointer to a real number, or a null pointer. If it is not a null pointer, then a optimal modularity value is returned here. |
|
Pointer to a vector, or a null pointer. If not a null pointer, then the membership vector of the optimal community structure is stored here. |
|
Vector giving the weights of the edges. If it is
|
Returns:
Error code. |

int igraph_community_to_membership(const igraph_matrix_t *merges,
igraph_integer_t nodes,
igraph_integer_t steps,
igraph_vector_t *membership,
igraph_vector_t *csize);
This function creates a membership vector from a community
structure dendrogram. A membership vector contains for each vertex
the id of its graph component, the graph components are numbered
from zero, see the same argument of igraph_clusters() for an
example of a membership vector.
Many community detection algorithms return with a merges
matrix, igraph_community_walktrap() and igraph_community_edge_betweenness() are two examples. The matrix
contains the merge operations performed while mapping the
hierarchical structure of a network. If the matrix has n-1 rows,
where n is the number of vertices in the graph, then it contains
the hierarchical structure of the whole network and it is called a
dendrogram.
This function performs steps merge operations as prescribed by
the merges matrix and returns the current state of the network.
If merges is not a complete dendrogram, it is possible to
take steps steps if steps is not bigger than the number
lines in merges.
Arguments:
|
The two-column matrix containing the merge
operations. See |
|
The number of leaf nodes in the dendrogram. |
|
Integer constant, the number of steps to take. |
|
Pointer to an initialized vector, the membership results will be stored here, if not NULL. The vector will be resized as needed. |
|
Pointer to an initialized vector, or NULL. If not NULL then the sizes of the components will be stored here, the vector will be resized as needed. |

Time complexity: O(|V|), the number of vertices in the graph.
int igraph_reindex_membership(igraph_vector_t *membership,
igraph_vector_t *new_to_old,
igraph_integer_t *nb_clusters);
This function reindexes component IDs in a membership vector in a way that the new IDs start from zero and go up to C-1, where C is the number of unique component IDs in the original vector. The supplied membership is expected to fall in the range 0, ..., n - 1.
Arguments:
|
Numeric vector which gives the type of each vertex, i.e. the component to which it belongs. The vector will be altered in-place. |
|
Pointer to a vector which will contain the old component ID for each new one, or NULL, in which case it is not returned. The vector will be resized as needed. |
|
Pointer to an integer for the number of distinct clusters. If not NULL, this will be updated to reflect the number of distinct clusters found in membership. |

int igraph_split_join_distance(const igraph_vector_t *comm1,
const igraph_vector_t *comm2, igraph_integer_t *distance12,
igraph_integer_t *distance21);
The split-join distance between partitions A and B is the sum of the projection distance of A from B and the projection distance of B from A. The projection distance is an asymmetric measure and it is defined as follows:
First, each set in partition A is evaluated against all sets in partition B. For each set in partition A, the best matching set in partition B is found and the overlap size is calculated. (Matching is quantified by the size of the overlap between the two sets). Then, the maximal overlap sizes for each set in A are summed together and subtracted from the number of elements in A.
The split-join distance will be returned in two arguments, distance12
will contain the projection distance of the first partition from the
second, while distance21 will be the projection distance of the second
partition from the first. This makes it easier to detect whether a
partition is a subpartition of the other, since in this case, the
corresponding distance will be zero.

igraph_community_leading_eigenvector — Leading eigenvector community finding (proper version).igraph_community_leading_eigenvector_callback_t — Callback for the leading eigenvector community finding method.igraph_le_community_to_membership — Vertex membership from the leading eigenvector community structureThe function documented in these section implements the “leading eigenvector” method developed by Mark Newman and published in MEJ Newman: Finding community structure using the eigenvectors of matrices, Phys Rev E 74:036104 (2006).
The heart of the method is the definition of the modularity matrix, B, which is B=A-P, A being the adjacency matrix of the (undirected) network, and P contains the probability that certain edges are present according to the “configuration model” In other words, a Pij element of P is the probability that there is an edge between vertices i and j in a random network in which the degrees of all vertices are the same as in the input graph.
The leading eigenvector method works by calculating the eigenvector of the modularity matrix for the largest positive eigenvalue and then separating vertices into two community based on the sign of the corresponding element in the eigenvector. If all elements in the eigenvector are of the same sign that means that the network has no underlying community structure. Check Newman's paper to understand why this is a good method for detecting community structure.
The leading eigenvector community structure detection method is
implemented in igraph_community_leading_eigenvector(). After
the initial split, the following splits are done in a way to
optimize modularity regarding to the original network. Note that
any further refinement, for example using Kernighan-Lin, as
proposed in Section V.A of Newman (2006), is not implemented here.

Newman's leading eigenvector method for detecting community structure. This is the proper implementation of the recursive, divisive algorithm: each split is done by maximizing the modularity regarding the original network, see MEJ Newman: Finding community structure in networks using the eigenvectors of matrices, Phys Rev E 74:036104 (2006).
Arguments:
|
The undirected input graph. |
||||||||
|
The weights of the edges, or a null pointer for unweighted graphs. |
||||||||
|
The result of the algorithm, a matrix containing the
information about the splits performed. The matrix is built in
the opposite way however, it is like the result of an
agglomerative algorithm. If at the end of the algorithm (after
|
||||||||
|
The membership of the vertices after all the
splits were performed will be stored here. The vector must be
initialized before calling and will be resized as needed.
This argument is ignored if it is |
||||||||
|
The maximum number of steps to perform. It might happen that some component (or the whole network) has no underlying community structure and no further steps can be done. If you want as many steps as possible then supply the number of vertices in the network here. |
||||||||
|
The options for ARPACK. |
||||||||
|
If not a null pointer, then it must be a pointer to a real number and the modularity score of the final division is stored here. |
||||||||
|
Boolean, whether to use the community structure given
in the |
||||||||
|
Pointer to an initialized vector or a null pointer. If not a null pointer, then the eigenvalues calculated along the community structure detection are stored here. The non-positive eigenvalues, that do not result a split, are stored as well. |
||||||||
|
If not a null pointer, then the eigenvectors
that are calculated in each step of the algorithm, are stored here,
in a pointer vector. Each eigenvector is stored in an
|
||||||||
|
Pointer to an initialized vector or a null pointer. If not a null pointer, then a trace of the algorithm is stored here, encoded numerically. The various operations:
|
||||||||
|
A null pointer or a function of type |

Extra argument to pass to the callback function. |
Returns:
Error code. |

calculation. This callback function must be of igraph_community_leading_eigenvector_callback_t type.
The following arguments are passed to the callback:
Arguments:

This function creates a membership vector from the
result of igraph_community_leading_eigenvector(),
It takes membership
and performs steps merges, according to the supplied

The two-column matrix containing the merge
operations. See |

finding algorithm, see Pascal Pons, Matthieu Latapy: Computing communities in large networks using random walks, https://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0512106
Currently the original C++ implementation is used in igraph, see https://www-complexnetworks.lip6.fr/~latapy/PP/walktrap.html We are grateful to Matthieu Latapy and Pascal Pons for providing this source code.
In contrast to the original implementation, isolated vertices are allowed in the graph and they are assumed to have a single incident loop edge with weight 1.
Arguments:
|
The input graph, edge directions are ignored. |
|
Numeric vector giving the weights of the edges. If it is a NULL pointer then all edges will have equal weights. The weights are expected to be positive. |
|
Integer constant, the length of the random walks. |
|
Pointer to a matrix, the merges performed by the
algorithm will be stored here (if not NULL). Each merge is a
row in a two-column matrix and contains the ids of the merged
clusters. Clusters are numbered from zero and cluster numbers
smaller than the number of nodes in the network belong to the
individual vertices as singleton clusters. In each step a new
cluster is created from two other clusters and its id will be
one larger than the largest cluster id so far. This means that

Community structure detection based on the betweenness of the edges in the network. The algorithm was invented by M. Girvan and M. Newman, see: M. Girvan and M. E. J. Newman: Community structure in social and biological networks, Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 99, 7821-7826 (2002).
The idea is that the betweenness of the edges connecting two communities is typically high, as many of the shortest paths between nodes in separate communities go through them. So we gradually remove the edge with highest betweenness from the network, and recalculate edge betweenness after every removal. This way sooner or later the network falls off to two components, then after a while one of these components falls off to two smaller components, etc. until all edges are removed. This is a divisive hierarchical approach, the result is a dendrogram.
Arguments:
|
The input graph. |

Pointer to an initialized vector, the result will be
stored here, the ids of the removed edges in the order of their
removal. It will be resized as needed. It may be |

If not a null pointer, then the modularity values
of the different divisions are stored here, in the order
corresponding to the merge matrix. The modularity values will
take weights into account if |
|
If not a null pointer, then the membership vector, corresponding to the highest modularity value, is stored here. |
|
Logical constant, whether to calculate directed betweenness (i.e. directed paths) for directed graphs. It is ignored for undirected graphs. |
|
An optional vector containing edge weights. If null, the unweighted edge betweenness scores will be calculated and used. If not null, the weighted edge betweenness scores will be calculated and used. |
Returns:
Error code. |
See also:
Time complexity: O(|V||E|^2), as the betweenness calculation requires O(|V||E|) and we do it |E|-1 times.

gradually removed from the network and you would like to know how

This function implements the multi-level modularity optimization algorithm for finding community structure, see Blondel, V. D., Guillaume, J.-L., Lambiotte, R., & Lefebvre, E. (2008). Fast unfolding of communities in large networks. Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 10008(10), 6. https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-5468/2008/10/P10008 for the details (preprint: http://arxiv.org/abs/0803.0476). The algorithm is sometimes known as the "Louvain" algorithm.
The algorithm is based on the modularity measure and a hierarchical approach. Initially, each vertex is assigned to a community on its own. In every step, vertices are re-assigned to communities in a local, greedy way: in a random order, each vertex is moved to the community with which it achieves the highest contribution to modularity. When no vertices can be reassigned, each community is considered a vertex on its own, and the process starts again with the merged communities. The process stops when there is only a single vertex left or when the modularity cannot be increased any more in a step.
The resolution parameter gamma allows finding communities at different
resolutions. Higher values of the resolution parameter typically result in
more, smaller communities. Lower values typically result in fewer, larger
communities. The original definition of modularity is retrieved when setting
gamma=1. Note that the returned modularity value is calculated using
the indicated resolution parameter. See igraph_modularity() for more details.
This function was contributed by Tom Gregorovic.
Arguments:

|
Numeric matrix that will contain the membership vector after
each level, if not |

after each level, if not |

This function implements the Leiden algorithm for finding community structure, see Traag, V. A., Waltman, L., & van Eck, N. J. (2019). From Louvain to Leiden: guaranteeing well-connected communities. Scientific reports, 9(1), 5233. http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-41695-z
It is similar to the multilevel algorithm, often called the Louvain algorithm, but it is faster and yields higher quality solutions. It can optimize both modularity and the Constant Potts Model, which does not suffer from the resolution-limit (see preprint http://arxiv.org/abs/1104.3083).
The Leiden algorithm consists of three phases: (1) local moving of nodes, (2) refinement of the partition and (3) aggregation of the network based on the refined partition, using the non-refined partition to create an initial partition for the aggregate network. In the local move procedure in the Leiden algorithm, only nodes whose neighborhood has changed are visited. The refinement is done by restarting from a singleton partition within each cluster and gradually merging the subclusters. When aggregating, a single cluster may then be represented by several nodes (which are the subclusters identified in the refinement).
The Leiden algorithm provides several guarantees. The Leiden algorithm is typically iterated: the output of one iteration is used as the input for the next iteration. At each iteration all clusters are guaranteed to be connected and well-separated. After an iteration in which nothing has changed, all nodes and some parts are guaranteed to be locally optimally assigned. Finally, asymptotically, all subsets of all clusters are guaranteed to be locally optimally assigned. For more details, please see Traag, Waltman & van Eck (2019).
The objective function being optimized is
1 / 2m sum_ij (A_ij - gamma n_i n_j)d(s_i, s_j)
where m is the total edge weight, A_ij is the weight of edge (i, j), gamma is
the so-called resolution parameter, n_i is the node weight of node i, s_i is
the cluster of node i and d(x, y) = 1 if and only if x = y and 0 otherwise.
By setting n_i = k_i, the degree of node i, and dividing gamma by 2m, you
effectively obtain an expression for modularity. Hence, the standard
modularity will be optimized when you supply the degrees as node_weights
and by supplying as a resolution parameter 1.0/(2*m), with m the number of
edges.
Arguments:
|
The input graph. It must be an undirected graph. |
|
Numeric vector containing edge weights. If |
|
Numeric vector containing node weights. |

The resolution parameter used, which is represented by gamma in the objective function mentioned in the documentation. |

amount of randomness ( |

Start from membership vector. If this is true, the optimization will start from the provided membership vector. If this is false, the optimization will start from a singleton partition. |
|
The membership vector. This is both used as the initial
membership from which optimisation starts and is updated in place. It
must hence be properly initialized. When finding clusters from scratch it
is typically started using a singleton clustering. This can be achieved
using |

The number of clusters contained in |

Phys Rev E 76, 036106. (2007). This version extends the original method by the ability to take edge weights into consideration and also by allowing some labels to be fixed.
Weights are taken into account as follows: when the new label of node
i is determined, the algorithm iterates over all edges incident on
node i and calculate the total weight of edges leading to other
nodes with label 0, 1, 2, ..., k - 1 (where k is the number of possible
labels). The new label of node i will then be the label whose edges
(among the ones incident on node i) have the highest total weight.
Arguments:
|
The input graph, should be undirected to make sense. |
|
The membership vector, the result is returned here. For each vertex it gives the ID of its community (label). |
|
The weight vector, it should contain a positive weight for all the edges. |
|
The initial state. If NULL, every vertex will have a different label at the beginning. Otherwise it must be a vector with an entry for each vertex. Non-negative values denote different labels, negative entries denote vertices without labels. |
|
Boolean vector denoting which labels are fixed. Of course
this makes sense only if you provided an initial state, otherwise
this element will be ignored. Also note that vertices without labels
cannot be fixed. If they are, this vector will be modified to
make it consistent with |
|
If not a null pointer, then it must be a pointer to a real number. The modularity score of the detected community structure is stored here. |
Returns:

The original C++ implementation of Martin Rosvall is used, see http://www.tp.umu.se/~rosvall/downloads/infomap_undir.tgz . Intergation in igraph has be done by Emmanuel Navarro (who is grateful to * Martin Rosvall and Carl T. Bergstrom for providing this source code.)
Note that the graph must not contain isolated vertices.
If you want to specify a random seed (as in original
implementation) you can use igraph_rng_seed().
Arguments:
|
The input graph. |
|
Numeric vector giving the weights of the edges. If it is a NULL pointer then all edges will have equal weights. The weights are expected to be positive. |
|
Numeric vector giving the weights of the vertices. If it is a NULL pointer then all vertices will have equal weights. The weights are expected to be positive. |
|
The number of attempts to partition the network (can be any integer value equal or larger than 1). |
|
Pointer to a vector. The membership vector is stored here. |
|
Pointer to a real. If not NULL the code length of the partition is stored here. |
Returns:
Error code. |
