Community detection is finding a group of people that have same interest, or occupation, or live in the same area. Identifying communities can help us to understand how our society function and how different communities affect one another. For example, by identifying people that are easily infected by flu, we can prevent the spread of flu by giving flu shots to them in advance.
But detecting community is not easy for complex networks in which people are connected in different ways.

Well done.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I may change some words as follows:
1. "...affect each other."->affect one another: since I assume more than two are involved;
2. "...complex networks that people are connected in different ways"-> complex networks in which people are connected in various ways.
Made changes according to your suggestions.
